Active Directory
Overview
Active Directory, the powerful and centralized identity management service developed by Microsoft, seamlessly integrates with Motadata AIOps to provide comprehensive monitoring capabilities. With this integration, organizations gain real-time visibility into the performance and health of their Active Directory infrastructure. Monitor critical directory service metrics such as user authentication rates, group membership changes, and domain controller status to ensure efficient and secure user access.

Prerequisites for Microsoft Active Directory Integration with Motadata AIOps
Obtain the server credentials required for discovering the server on which Microsoft Active Directory is installed.
Ensure that the user has administrator privileges on the server where Microsoft Active Directory is installed.
Ensure that the Microsoft Active Directory service is active and running on the server.
Confirm that the Microsoft Active Directory process and service are listed in the process and service monitor settings of Motadata AIOps. While these may be listed by default, verify that the names of the service and process match the specific Microsoft Active Directory version that you intend to monitor.
By meeting these prerequisites, you can integrate Microsoft Active Directory with Motadata AIOps and enable effective monitoring and management of your Microsoft Active Directory server.
