The consistency check report’s DS Path column indicates the path (also referred to as “attributes”) of the user’s assigned home folder. If no path is indicated, it is because the home folder attribute is not set in Active Directory.
File Dynamics allows you to populate any missing home folder attributes or correct attributes that are not configured correctly. You do this by selecting a path and looking for a match on each user’s ID. You also have the option to overwrite an existing attribute based on a match found.
If no home folder exists for the user, File Dynamics can create one automatically once the target path for the home folder is indicated in the policy. For more information, see Section 5.3, Standardizing User Home Folder Attributes.
