Unlock-AcctIdentity

Introduced in: Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktop 7 2411

Unlocks the given identity accounts.

Syntax

Unlock-AcctIdentity
      -IdentityAccountId <String>
      [-LoggingId <Guid>]
      [<CitrixCommonParameters>]
      [<CommonParameters>]
<!--NeedCopy-->
Unlock-AcctIdentity
      -IdentityAccountName <String>
      [-LoggingId <Guid>]
      [<CitrixCommonParameters>]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Provides the ability to unlock given identity accounts. An identity account is marked as locked 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 the operation has failed without unlocking the account.

Note: The lock state in Active Directory is unrelated to the lock state in the identity service. This command does NOT make any changes to the account information stored in Active Directory or Azure AD, only modifies the account state stored in the Citrix AD Identity Service database.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

Unlocks the identity account called “Domain\account”.

Unlock-AcctIdentity -IdentityAccountName Domain\account
<!--NeedCopy-->

EXAMPLE 2

Unlocks all the locked identity accounts.

Get-AcctIdentity -Filter {Lock -eq $true} | Unlock-AcctIdentity
<!--NeedCopy-->
