What are the benefits of synchronizing the ePO with the AD?

Jump to solution

I have my systems manaually added to the ePO and there is no synchronization at this point. If the systems are already in the ePO as the managed system, do synchronizing affect those systems like creating duplicates or any kind of effects on the product installed such as Encryption or ENS? 

I have read this article posted in this link  about how can I synchronize but I am not sure about the pros and cons of doing this. Thank you!

Pros are it can bring in new systems as they are added to domain, but if the agent is on the image, they will check themselves in anyway.

Cons are that if AD isn't clean, it can miss things, add systems that don't exist any longer, has been known under certain conditions to create duplicates.
