Thank you very much VasilMichev
One area of concern: what happens to Office 365 users that I choose not to sync from on premises AD > Office 365 AD?
To be more specific, I dont need all the users of the Office 365 AD to be a part of the on premises AD, so when I got a csv from Office 365 AD, I did not import all the users in the local AD.
What will happen to those users after the first initial sync? WIll they be deleted from Office 365 AD or remain "cloud-only"?
Best regards

Thank you VasilMichev
What I noticed is this: when the user is moved to a non-syncing OU, its moved to Deleted Users of Office 365 after next delta sync. When the user is restored, its password need to be changed in order to become cloud-only.
