The List Properties analysis provides information about one or more lists in your farm, including:
·the properties of the list, including versioning and advanced settings
·audit settings that are/are not enabled for the list.
This feature is not available at the farm (tenant) scope.
To generate a List Properties analysis:
1Select the object(s) you want to include in your analysis.
2Choose Configuration > List Properties.
3If you want results to include only lists that meet one or more specific criteria, specify one or more of the parameters described in the following table.
If you want results to include only lists... |
Then ... |
---|---|
whose name contains a specific text string |
enter the text string in the List Name contains field. |
that have a particular version setting |
select from the Versions Setting drop-down. |
of one or more specific types |
select from the List Types drop-down. |
Now you can:
·run the operation immediately (by clicking the [Run Now] button)
OR
·schedule the operation to run at a later time or on a recurring basis.
OR
·save the operation as XML Instructions that can be run at a later time.
The top level of the analysis lists each Web application, site collection, site, and list within the scope of your analysis, along with the list's Base Type.
When expanded, the following information is displayed for each list:
·list Properties, including versioning and advanced settings detail
·all of the available Audit Settings, with settings that are currently enabled for the list identified by a plus sign (+).
NOTE: Audit settings that are inherited from the site collection are flagged with >.
·list Columns settings
ControlPoint provides the following tools that allow you to examine permissions of SharePoint users throughout your farm:
·Site Permissions shows the permissions of users for selected sites
·Site List Permissions shows user permissions for individual lists and list items within a site.
An additional analysis, Comprehensive Permissions, show permissions for all sites, lists, and optionally list items within a single result set.
NOTE: In addition to showing user permissions at the individual site level, all Site Permissions analyses include any Web application policy permissions users may have.
If you are using Active Directory as the authentication method for your SharePoint Online environment, the Orphaned Domain Users analysis lists users who currently have permissions in SharePoint but are no longer valid in the Active Directory.
NOTE: Currently, ControlPoint cannot expand the membership of Office 365 groups. Therefore, these users cannot be evaluated.
Users Evaluated as Potential Orphans
ControlPoint evaluates users as potential orphans if they are disabled in and/or deleted from Active Directory but are found in:
·a SharePoint permission entry at any level (site, subsite, list, library, folder, or item)
·a site collection's All People list, and/or
·a Site Collection Administrator's list.
ControlPoint does not evaluate names in Web application policies, the Farm Administrator list, or any custom SharePoint list that may contain user names.
Users That Are Not Reported as Orphans
ControlPoint does not report a user as being orphaned if it is considered valid by SharePoint (that is, if a user who is not in the All People list can still be validated by the SharePoint People Picker). Active Directory entries that are considered valid by SharePoint (and therefore are not reported as orphaned by ControlPoint) include:
·expired accounts, and
·locked accounts (i.e., accounts for which the allowable threshold for failed login attempts has been exceeded).
To generate an Orphaned Domain Users analysis:
1Select the object(s) you want to include in your analysis.
2Choose Users and Security > Orphaned Domain Users.
3Specify the parameters for your analysis.
Note that you have the option of limiting your results only to users who are either disabled in or have been deleted from Active Directory. If you accept the default option, Show all orphans, both types of users will be included.
4If you want ControlPoint to automatically delete all users returned by the analysis on the home farm, check the Automatically delete users after analysis has run (in home farm only). Note that, in a multi-farm environment, this action cannot be carried out on a remote farm.
CAUTION: If you check this box, ControlPoint will automatically submit one or more Delete User jobs to the ControlPoint scheduler. The number of jobs submitted depends on the number of users to be deleted, and the number of users processed in a job is determined by the ControlPoint Setting OrphanDeleteBatchSize. The first job will be scheduled to run 30 minutes after the analysis has finished processing. Because this action cannot be undone, you may want to back up user permissions before running the operation. (You also have the option of deleting jobs before they have run via the Schedule Monitor.)
Now you can:
·run the operation immediately (by clicking the [Run Now] button)
OR
·schedule the operation to run at a later time or on a recurring basis.
OR
·save the operation as XML Instructions that can be run at a later time.
When expanded, a list of rights for each orphaned user displays the same information as the User Rights section of the Site Permissions analysis.
Disabled Accounts as Orphans
Users whose accounts have been disabled (or disabled and renamed) in the Active Directory are normally considered orphans by both SharePoint and ControlPoint and are annotated as such in analysis results. This annotation is intended to help you in evaluating whether or not such users really should be considered orphans in accordance with you organization's policies.
If an account has been both disabled and renamed, the annotation will include the original name, followed by the string DISABLED, RENAMED; and the new name. (ControlPoint will not consider a renamed account orphaned if it is also active, expired, or locked.)
NOTE: Although it is not a common practice, it is possible for restricted reads and other permissions to be placed on entries in the Active Directory. This can affect ControlPoint's ability to detect disabled accounts. Specifically, if an account has been disabled AND cannot be read by the ControlPoint Service Account, then both SharePoint and ControlPoint will treat that account as valid (not an orphan).
To delete orphaned user permissions from analysis results:
Use the information in the following table to determine the appropriate action to take.
CAUTION: If you have any doubt as whether a user is truly orphaned, it is recommended that before you delete permissions, you verify his/her existence and status in the Active Directory.
If you want to delete permissions for ... |
Then ... |
---|---|
a specific orphaned user |
click a User hyperlink to initiate a ControlPoint Delete User Permissions action. The Delete User Permissions page opens in a separate browser window, with the Delete Users field pre-filled with the selected user(s). Note that you need to run the action without validating the user, as the account now longer exists in Active Directory. |
all orphaned users as an interactive tasks |
click the Delete All hyperlink at the top of the analysis results section. |
The Site Permissions analysis lets you examine the permissions that one or more users have for selected sites, including external users.
To generate a Site Permissions analysis:
1Select the object(s) you want to include in your analysis.
2Choose Users and Security > Site Permissions.
3Specify the parameters for your analysis.
Note that, In addition to the "standard" parameters, you have the option to Group by Sites (the default) or Users.
Now you can:
·run the operation immediately (by clicking the [Run Now] button)
OR
·schedule the operation to run at a later time or on a recurring basis.
OR
·save the operation as XML Instructions that can be run at a later time.
The top level of the User Rights section lists the Web application(s) within the scope of your analysis.
When expanded, a list of users with permissions for the site collection or site displays, along with the following information:
·the login name of the SharePoint User
·the user's permission level(s), as indicated by a plus sign (+) in the applicable column(s), which may include:
§the site collection's Admin group
§the five default SharePoint permission levels:
§Full Control
§Design
§Contribute
§Read
§Limited.
NOTE: If a user has a template-specific or custom permission level, it is recorded in the Other column.
By default, the report lists:
·users with direct permissions, and
·users with membership through Active Directory/tenant-level Security groups and SharePoint groups.
The Display Name/Group column shows the display name of each user whose permissions are direct or through membership in a SharePoint group. If a display name does not exist for the user, the user's login name will display in brackets < >.
If you chose to group by Sites, you can click the AD hyperlink to the left of an AD group in the User Rights section to view Active Directory/Security group members.
NOTE: Because ControlPoint cannot currently expand membership in Office 365 groups, when the AD link is clicked the dialog will be blank.
Note that in the following example, the external user is identified by his external email address.
