Azure Connect - no recent password synchronizations

Question

Hello&nbsp;I manage quite a few Office 365 setups each using Azure connect synchronizing local AD to Office 365. &nbsp;When something is wrong with synchronizations I get alerts which is good however if password synchronization stops working then no alerts occur. &nbsp;This morning I had a client where password syncs were not working for over three weeks and I had no idea until logged onto Office 365 and noticed 'No recent synchronizations' next to the 'Password sync status'. &nbsp;Last&nbsp;'Last directory sync' was however working and showing up to date.&nbsp;I fixed this by going through the setup wizard for Azure connect again and all started working however I would like to be alerted if there is a 'No recent password synchronization error'.&nbsp;Any ideas how to do this?

Hi Darren,&nbsp;There are a number of Event ID's related to Password synchronization that are written to the application event log on the&nbsp;server running Azure AD Connect.&nbsp;&nbsp;https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2855271/how-to-troubleshoot-password-synchronization-when-using-an-azure-ad-sy&nbsp;You could create a scheduled task to monitor the application event log on the Azure AD Connect server for events you want to monitor, and then attach a task to the events (e.g. send an email).&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
