Problem with SharePoint Products AD DS Container after updating server with SharePoint updates

Following Text from: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff730261.aspx

MySites orphaned / old memberships not updated

Run the command stsadm -o sync -listolddatabases 1 You should then get a list of database GUID

Run the command stsadm -o sync -deleteolddatabases 1 This will remove the record from the SSP database but will not touch the actual Content Database.

(Run this commands as a User which has Full Control to the User Profile Service Application!)
