The ADC service is unable to resolve the Primary Group of a user account when the Primary Group and user account exist in seperate OU branches and the OUList parameter is configured in the ADC Config file.

WORKAROUND:

Can be safely ignored but to resolve the error, ensure that the Primary Group of any given user account exists in the same OU branch as the user account.

STATUS:

Waiting for fix in a future release of Archive Manager
