What happens when you update a user or group via application admin?

• A. The update is staged in all directories
• B. The update will be made in the first directory the application has write permissions
• C. The update is ignored if multiple directories exist
• D. The update is made in the last directory the application has write permissions

Answer: (B)

When you update a user or group in an environment with multiple directories, the system uses a priority based on write permissions. It writes the change to the first directory in the configured order that has write access. This makes that directory the canonical place for updates, ensuring consistency and avoiding conflicting writes across directories. Other directories won’t receive the change automatically unless there’s a separate synchronization or propagation process in place. So the update goes to the first writable directory, not to all directories or to the last one.
