Troubleshooting hybrid directory and directory assessment

A directory assessment is required to create a hybrid directory. Assessment tests run on each domain controller. The assessment tests examines different areas and result in a Passed or Failed status. If your directory assessment fails, you can view the assessment tests of your domain controllers to identify what issues caused the failure.

Important

A hybrid directory can be created when the directory assessment's status is Passed with warning. We recommend you address the issue causing the warning prior to creating a hybrid directory

Troubleshooting failed hybrid directory assessment

You can troubleshoot a failed directory assessment from the Directories page in the Amazon Web Services Management Console.

  2. Under the Directory assessments section, select the failed hybrid directory assessment.

  3. On the Assessment Details page, review the directory assessment and identify what test(s) failed.

    1. The domain controller's assessment tests will have more information on what tests were successful or failed. The Status column provides more details on what caused the failed test. To view your domain controller's assessment tests, see Viewing directory assessments.
