Start or Stop the Connection to the Cloud Identity Engine

To prevent the Cloud Identity agent from communicating with the Cloud Identity Engine, you can stop and then restart the communication later.
When you start the Cloud Identity agent, it automatically starts communicating with the Cloud Identity Engine to synchronize the attributes. To prevent this communication (for example, if a directory server is unavailable or if you want to Remove the Cloud Identity Agent), you can stop communication between the Cloud Identity agent and the Cloud Identity Engine. You can then restart the connection later to allow communication.
  1. On the agent host, start the Cloud Identity agent if it is not already running, then select Cloud Identity Configuration.
    The current connection status of the agent displays at the lower-left corner of the window.
  2. Stop or re-establish the connection between the agent and the service.
    • To connect the agent to the Cloud Identity Engine, click Start.
    • To prevent the agent from communicating with the Cloud Identity Engine, click Stop.
