Your Azure AD tenant weyland.com is synced with on-premises AD using a DirSync server named DirSync1. You create a new on-premises user and need the user replicated to Azure AD immediately. Solution: you run Start-ADSyncSyncCycle -PolicyType Initial. Does this solution meet the requirement?

Correct answer: No.
Why this is the answer
The solution does not meet the requirement because Start-ADSyncSyncCycle -PolicyType Initial initiates an initial synchronization cycle, which is typically used for the first full synchronization. To replicate a newly created user immediately, you need to initiate a delta synchronization cycle. The correct command for this is Start-ADSyncSyncCycle -PolicyType Delta. A delta sync scans for changes since the last synchronization and applies them, making it suitable for replicating new or modified objects promptly. Using Initial would perform a full scan, which is less efficient and not necessary for this scenario.
