Unable to activate device using IMD

This article applies to:

  • OS: Windows, Mac on the user device
  • Product edition: inSync Client (Cloud)

Problem description

inSync Client activation on the user device fails due to failure in importing users through integrated mass deployment (IMD).

Resolution

The possible causes and respective solutions are provided below.

Cause: inSync Connector is disconnected (or in NOT CONNECTED state).

Resolution

Ensure the inSync Connector service is running on the inSync Connector server.

Cause: Requested AD/LDAP Mapping does not exist 

The following trace is logged under inSyncClientGUI.log.

[2018-09-21 10:02:30,418] [ERROR] RPC to server failed, fault: Requested AD/LDAP Mapping does not exist. (#10000008a)
[2018-09-21 10:02:30,418] [ERROR] [IMD] Auto-install failed: Requested AD/LDAP Mapping does not exist. (#10000008a)
{snippet}

Resolution

The possible scenarios causing the above error and their respective solutions are as follows:

Scenarios Solution 
AD mapping does not point to the OU or Group where the users reside Create an AD mapping that includes the required user group or points to the correct OU.
Incorrect IMD token Generate a new IMD token and update the IMD script with the new token. Subsequently, try to activate the devices manually.

Cause: Issues running the IMD script through the deployment tool.

Resolution

Perform a trial installation with the IMD script on a test machine.

Cause: The user is not added to inSync.

Resolution

Perform the following steps before activating the device:

  • Import the user manually from AD through inSync.
  • Ensure the user account has an associated email address in the AD under account properties.
  • Ensure the correct token is used for the inSync account (specific instance only).
