ENT Installer: Course Group Synchronisation
Activation
Specific switch to enable course group synchronisation. If this box is not ticked, no synchronisation will be done on groups by any action whatsoever (CLI, cron, or manual)
Last synchronisation
The date of the last run of the group synchronisation. This date serves as the reference for partial synchronisations
Group protection
If this option is enabled, then no group created in Moodle can be deleted by the synchronisation. It can then ONLY create new groups.
Group contexts
The context(s) in which the LDAP groups representing course groups can be found. Several contexts can be explored if separated by a comma. Sub-contexts will be explored according to the settings of the LDAP authentication module.
Auto group prefix
If filled in, all group names created by synchronisation will be prefixed with this character string. This also makes it easy to distinguish automatic groups from manual creations by teachers in their course.
LDAP group selection filter
An LDAP filter to select the relevant entries representing groups to import.
Group object class
An LDAP filter to restrict the search to identified object types e.g.: (ObjectClass=group).
Group identifier LDAP attribute
