Unlocks AD accounts within the AD Identity Service.

Syntax

Unlock-AcctADAccount -ADAccountName <String> [-LoggingId <Guid>] [-BearerToken <String>] [-AdminAddress <String>] [<CommonParameters>]

Unlock-AcctADAccount -ADAccountSid <String> [-LoggingId <Guid>] [-BearerToken <String>] [-AdminAddress <String>] [<CommonParameters>]
<!--NeedCopy-->

Detailed Description

Provides the ability to unlock the AD Identity Service identity item that references a specified AD account. An AD account is marked as locked in the AD Identity Service while the Machine Creation Services (MCS) are processing tasks relating to the account. If these tasks are forcibly stopped, an account can remain locked despite no longer being processed. This command resolves this issue, but use it with caution because unlocking an account that MCS expects to be locked can result in an MCS operation being cancelled. Use this command only when MCS has locked an account for use in a provisioning operation, and where this operation has failed without unlocking the account.

Note: This command does NOT make any changes to the account information stored in Active Directory.

Parameters

Name	Description	Required?	Pipeline Input	Default Value
ADAccountName	The AD account name to be unlocked. AD account name is accepted in the following formats: Fully qualified DN e.g. CN=MyComputer,OU=Computers,DC=MyDomain,DC=Com; UPN format e.g MyComputer@MyDomain.Com; Domain qualified e.g MyDomain\MyComputer.	true	false
ADAccountSid	The AD account SID that represents the account to be unlocked.	true	true (ByPropertyName)
LoggingId	Specifies the identifier of the high-level operation this cmdlet call forms a part of. Citrix Studio and Director typically create high-level operations. PowerShell scripts can also wrap a series of cmdlet calls in a high-level operation by way of the Start-LogHighLevelOperation and Stop-LogHighLevelOperation cmdlets.	false	false
BearerToken	Specifies the bearer token assigned to the calling user	false	false
AdminAddress	Specifies the address of a XenDesktop controller that the PowerShell snap-in connects to. You can provide this as a host name or an IP address.	false	false	LocalHost. Once a value is provided by any cmdlet, this value becomes the default.
