Double entries in userCertificate avoids Hybrid Join
Hey guys,
I have an interesting situation at a customer. He utilizes a third party MFA provider while being on a federation. That means new computers never will have a registered state. For users it is mandatory that theirs clients have fulfilled the Hybrid Join to use M365 apps, what can be a real pain.
So the Automatic-Device-Join task has to create the userCertificate on the OnPremises computer object, before it can be synchronized to Entra.
Here comes the issue. In some cases we see that some computers will create two userCertificate entries.
This situation will lead to an inconstistent Hybrid Join. I already tried to remove one of the certificates, but for me it is impossible to recognize which is the right one.
Only solution for me was to remove both entries under userCertificate and let the Automatic-Device-Join task create a new one. Afterwards the Hybrid Join will work.
I want to understand, which process or scenario might create the double userCertificate entries?
