AllowedSyncCycleInterval            : 00:30:00

CurrentlyEffectiveSyncCycleInterval : 00:30:00

CustomizedSyncCycleInterval         :

NextSyncCyclePolicyType             : Delta

NextSyncCycleStartTimeInUTC         : 12/19/2019 1:00:20 PM

PurgeRunHistoryInterval             : 7.00:00:00

SyncCycleEnabled                    : True

MaintenanceEnabled                  : True

StagingModeEnabled                  : True

SchedulerSuspended                  : False

SyncCycleInProgress                 : False

STEP 3 – checking User profiles:
