removing a user from AD while is corrently logged into vCenter?

[jose_maria_gonz]

Hi there,

Just out of curiosity, why is the reason a user remain logged in up to 24 hours in vCenter after being removed from AD? Is there a setting within vCenter or AD where I can change that?

Thanking you in advance,

Saludos,

my assumption: since the user probably logged in while the AD account was still active is that the user will remain connected to the instance, but if the user logs out of vCenter a connection back in will not be possible.

Hi there,

Yes, but no offence, that is no the question. The question is ; Can I change the 24 hours setting? and if so, where?

go to the home menuAdministrationvCenter Server Settings--Active Directory. Change the validation period to something other than 1440 minutes.
