Setting up a new Entra Cloud sync agent for a customer who already has an established on-prem AD and Azure AD with a mess of non-synced accounts and passwords between them.

So I need to do a slow roll on this thing and filter syncing by OUs in AD.

I know I have to create a new configuration in the Azure portal but what are the risks of the default config kicking in and doing a sync of all my users before I have a chance to filter it down to just the OUs I want to sync?

Should I disable the on-prem agent before creating a config in the cloud? That “Create” button is giving me anxiety 😐

thanks,

Dan
