This plugin allow you to have full control to decide when to launch the LDAP import.
You can launch it on demand with an admin portlet (for testing purpose for instance)
And you can plan the launch with a scheduler that accepts cron expression (for instance, start the import each night at 3pm).

LDAP IMPORT LAUNCHER
#################################
For using this feature, turn off the import in portal-ext.properties ;
ldap.import.enabled=false
ldap.import.on.startup=false

To specify when the import must start, define the planning using a cron expression :
- open liferay-portlet.xml in the deployed folder,
- uncomment the scheduler,
- Define the cron expression in the cron-trigger-value,
- restart Liferay or redeploy the portlet

To manually launch the import, go to a site, then "Settings".
The LDAP Import Launcher appears in this section.
