Convert user type CUCM-LDAP to CUCM Local
------------------------------------------

.. _19.3.1|VOSS-608:
.. _24.2-PB1|EKB-22855:


The **Convert to Local CUCM user** tool converts a CUCM-LDAP user account to a CUCM "Local" user. If
the user exists on CUCxn Server then the user is also converted to a Local User,
that is, the user on CUCxn is set to "Do not Integrate with LDAP Directory".

Converting a user from CUCM-LDAP to CUCM Local is typically required when: 

* The user has been deleted from the LDAP server 
* The CUCM has synced with the LDAP server 
* The user has been set to "Inactive" 

In this scenario, the user would be deleted when the Garbage Collection process runs on CUCM.

Converting the user to a CUCM Local user prevents the user from being automatically deleted.

.. note:: 

   You can also configure Automate to automatically convert inactive CUCM-LDAP users (users that would 
   normally be deleted automatically by the CUCM in a data sync) to "Local" in 
   a sync via the following setting, via the **Users** tab in the **Global Setting**: 
   *Convert Inactive CUCM LDAP User to Local on Sync*.


The table describes **Convert to Local CUCM user** settings: 

============================== ==========================================================================
Field                          Description 
============================== ==========================================================================
Show Inactive LDAP Users Only  Defines whether to display only inactive users, which have already been 
                               deleted from LDAP and are due to be permanently deleted from CUCM. 

                               An "inactive user" on CUCM is a user that was deleted from the LDAP Server, 
                               and CUCM synced with the LDAP server after the deletion took place. Inactive 
                               users are deleted from CUCM when the Garbage Collector next runs on CUCM. 

User to Convert                Mandatory. By default, only users with CUCM-LDAP type display in this 
                               drop-down. When **Show Inactive LDAP Users Only** is enabled, the list of 
                               users is filtered to only show the "CUCM-LDAP" users with a status of 
                               "Inactive", that is with status value = 2. 

                               * Active (1): the user is still in LDAP since the last sync 
                               * Inactive (2): the user is not in LDAP since the last sync

Password                       The password used to set the password for the user on CUCM and CUCxn.

Selected User's Hierarchy      Read only. The selected user's current hierarchy.

CUCM LDAP Directory Name       Read-only. The LDAP directory name. 

CUCM User LDAP Status          Read-only. The selected user's current status
