Does ADSI connector value of current attribute and then update it even though there is no change?

Hi,

I wanted to get clarification if the ADSI connector adds and removes value from ActiveDirectory even though there is no change in value. for e.g.

If the current description is ABC and since there was an update for some other attribute does ADSI remove the current description value ABC first and then put it back? This is the behavior we see in logs.

If yes does anyone know the reasoning for such behavior as this puts an additional load on target ActiveDirectory which is not required in my mind

It seems this is the behavior of the connector. It removes the existing value and then adds it back especially for multi-value attribute
