Lösung
The Coordinator determines maximum licensed users by comparing the value associated with the component license to the total count of users in each domain. The Coordinator does this by issuing LDAP queries to Active Directory using specific filters for a precise count.
Generic User Count Query (for AD, Defender, File System, SharePoint, SQL Server, EMC, NetApp licensing):
(&(objectCategory=Person)(objectClass=user)(!userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2))
Mail Enabled User Count Query (for Exchange licensing):
(&(samAccountType=805306368)(|(&(!userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)(msExchHomeServerName=*))(&(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)(msExchMasterAccountSid=*))))
