StorCenter px2-300d from your Active Directory domain. Select the checkbox in the title bar to
select all the users and groups in your Active Directory domain.

Synchronizing with the Active Directory Controller
You can poll the Active Directory controller at any time to check for new users and groups on the
controller, so you can add them to your px2-300d. This keeps your px2-300d up to date with any
group changes on the controller and indicates if any users on the controller were deleted or
promoted.
Click Synchronize with the Active Directory Controller .
