Abstract. We discuss explicit examples of compactifications on AdS4 with fluxes turned on. We show that a class of type IIA vacua recently found within the D=4 effective approach corresponds to compactification on AdS4×S3×S3/Z32. The results obtained using the effective method completely match the general ten-dimensional analysis for the existence of N =1 warped compactifications onAdS4 ×M6. Solving the tadpole cancellation conditions in D=4 we are able to find examples of appropriate sets of branes.
