Title
Synchronization workflow triggers on sending and receiving side -
Description
we have a custom workflow action that triggers synchronization as pre-actions. This used to work well in the version 5.13 but in the current version of GPOAdmin 5.18, these actions now are not only triggered on the "sending" server, but also on the "receiving" server. So the custom workflow (which should only run on the sender) also runs on the receiver. -
Resolution
In GPOADmin 5.18 we update the synchronization system so that we can track synchronizations between servers. As such the synchronization custom action is now triggered on each server involved in the synchronization. Thus if you synchronize two GPOs using the same GPOADmin server, The synchronization custom actions will trigger once, for the source GPO.
In a case where two GPOADmin servers are involved the synchronization custom actions trigger once on the source server for the source GPO, and once on the target GPOADmin server for the target GPO. Currently there is no way to differentiate between the source and target for custom actions.
We have created an enhancement to differentiate between source and target in synchronization custom actions.
Enhancement Request ID: 501786This enhancement will be considered for a future release of GPOAdmin.
