Greetings to everyone. Today I was perplexed by User Information List. My powershell script showed the right Display Name for the user and UserInfo table in the content database also contained the right data. Nevertheless I could only see the wrong display name on the site (_catalogs/users). The reason was that UserInfo table and User Information List are different portions of data. On the site you can see the data stored in the User Information List, i.e. AllUserData table in the database. So the question is quite simple: How and when is the data synchronized between UserInfo table and AllUserData table (User Information List)? It is always said that User Profile To SharePoint Full Synchronization JOB is just synching data between User Profile Application and UserInfo table. Maybe it also updates AllUserData table? But what's the point of duplicating data in two different tables?
Thanks in advance, Alexey.
