Manual clean up procedure required

UMS does not remove pictures from your picture library when students are removed from AD.

It is recomended that you once a year delete all pictures from UMS Web under C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Pictures

Next time the service CopyPictures2Web runs, the pictures library will be synchronized with active students.
