    Hello @T. Kujala

    Thank you for reaching out. I would like to inform you below:

    • Error message DeletingCloudOnlyObjectNotAllowed or Error 114 usually occurs AD Connect is trying to export something, but it has DirSync Enabled set to "False".
    • Basically, Sync is trying to delete a 'restored' user or other object. This is usually because a user has been moved to an un-synced OU or deleted On-Prem and cloud object has been restored.
    • The easiest way to find such users would be look for accounts on Azure AD which have ImmutableID value published and DirSyncEnabled status is set to False.
    • To export list of all such objects you can use following command:
    Get-AzureADUser -All $true | Select-Object -Property UserPrincipalName,ObjectId,ImmutableId,DirSyncEnabled | Export-Csv -Path C:/Users1.Csv -NoTypeInformation
    
    • Once the file is exported you can look up the csv for users which have DirSync Enabled Status as False and still ImmutableID published.
    • Post finding the user you can set the ImmutableID value to null and perform a Delta sync to fix the issue.

    I hope this answer helps to resolve your issue.
