Question 1
IntermediateManaging User Accounts, Domains, and Directory · Managing the User Life Cycle
A multinational corporation is preparing to synchronize their on-premises Active Directory with Google Workspace using Google Cloud Directory Sync (GCDS). The infrastructure team requires that no user accounts in Google Workspace are ever deleted during the synchronization process, even if they appear to be missing from the LDAP source, to prevent accidental data loss during the initial configuration phase. You need to configure the GCDS XML config file to ensure this safety mechanism is enforced. Which specific configuration setting should you verify?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C
In GCDS (Google Cloud Directory Sync), to prevent accidental deletions during sync, you configure 'Delete Limits' (protection limits) in the General Settings. By setting the limit to 0% or a specific low number, GCDS will abort the sync if the number of proposed deletions exceeds this threshold, effectively preventing mass deletions due to misconfiguration.
