What it does
A server is listed only when its computer object in Active Directory last changed within this many days. This is the date the object changed in the directory (a domain-joined computer renews its password about every 30 days, which changes the object). It is not the last sign-in of the computer. Allowed 1-3650.
When set
When set: the worker's next listing uses this number of days.
When blank or default
When blank / at the default: 90 days.
Risk and how to reverse it
A small number hides servers that are switched off for a while; a large number lists servers that were decommissioned without removing their computer object. A server that falls out keeps its group and access; nothing is removed. Reversible: change the number.
Requires
Pro (On-premises Active Directory feature) and a running hybrid worker. SuperAdmin to change.
Recommended
Keep 90 days.
