Along with a customer, we are trying to make groups with users instead of leaving them "standalone", and when I go to see the Users from the AD Domain integrated in vSphere, they show like this:

Does anyone recall having a similar issue to this one? I would really appreciate the help.

Thank you all.

Hi @maksym007. thanks for your response.

The vCenter version is 6.7 U3o, build number 18485185, and I´m logging with an administrator user. I don´t know what you mean with "Single Sign-On method".

Thanks in advance.

which one are you using?

Hi @maksym007 ! 

The ID Provider is "AD (Integrated Windows Authentication)".

Thanks in advance.

I would recommend to change it to LDAP. 

your option will be deprecated in near future.

Hi @maksym007 !

Thanks for the advice: Do you think this can help with the knowing of the users?

Best regards.

I think so. Do not forget to restart vCenter itself.
