What occurs if a source fails during the Password Synchronisation process?

In the scenario where a source fails during the Password Synchronization process, the system is designed to ensure that successful changes remain intact while providing a notification about the failure. This is crucial for maintaining user experience and system integrity. Implementing a rollback without a prompt to preserve successful changes could lead to unnecessary rejections of valid updates and create frustration for users.

The rationale behind this approach emphasizes efficiency; it allows for partial successes to be maintained so that users are not locked out of their accounts or forced to repeat steps unnecessarily. Meanwhile, sending a failure notification alerts administrators or relevant personnel to investigate the issue without disrupting the entire process. This balances functionality and user convenience during synchronization tasks, leading to a more resilient system architecture.
