Hi

I plan to upgrade both on-premise Azure AD connect servers to latest version. On the staging server is there a way to run the import connect and sync to the engine only and not export to to azure cloud? I basically want to get an idea how many objects are syncing.

My envrionment is On-premise AD sync to Azure AD.

    That already happens on staging mode. All that staging mode does is modify the behavior of the normal sync cycle scheduler operations to skip all exports, and certain other features do not activate either - i.e.: Password Writeback, Password Hash Sync, etc, which instead run via the active non-staging server.
