symptom
A user account's Profile path is truncated after updating it using the Command Line Interface.

symptom

Using the following command line syntax to update a user account's Profile path causes the new value to be truncated:

EA USER [LogonID] UPDATE HOMEDIR:\\[svr]\users$\@target()

symptom

Using the following syntax instead correctly updates the profile path:

EA USER [LogonID] UPDATE HOMEDIR:\\[svr]\users$\[LogonID]

cause

This issue is caused by a problem with the @Target() command when used to update a account properties.

fix

This issue is resolved in Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) 7.0 and later. Upgrade to the latest version of DRA to resolve this problem.
