Forcing a refresh of LDAP mappings

[kyoung]

We are setting up LDAP on our JSS and trying out the mappings we want. If we make a change to our mappings it does not show up in inventory for awhile. I don't know how frequently the values get updated (at every checkin???), but a way to force an update would be grand so we can see the results of our experiments immediately. Any body know a way to force an update?

@kyoung Are you running something like the below at login:

jamf recon -endUsername $3

That should update at login.

If wanting to run at a different time, you could get the logged in users username as per this.

Then swap $3 above with the username from the linked article, & run a policy to update on mass.

I will give it a try. Thanks for the tip.
