Answered Getting Started with ILM 2 RC

    Hello everyone,

    I've recently been assigned to a project requring ILM 2.  I've worked with MIIS a little, mainly in the context of syncing e-mail directories, but this will be a lot more involved.  I think I will be spending a lot of time on the message board.

    This collection of excercised look pretty good: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd239142(WS.10).aspx 

    My first stab at the new stuff today, I tried to create a simple AD Outbound Sync, where I created a user in ILM, and have it created in AD, but that didn't work.  Does anyone have a good guide for doing this?

    Thanks
    Joseph Durnal

    Hi Joseph,

    this describes the account creation in AD http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc678643(WS.10).aspx. Have you read this? Can describe your errors more detailed?

    Likely you forgot to:
     1) create a Workflow Action Activity to Add a Sycnrhonization Rule to the object
     2) create an MPR to (Requestors: All People, Request Type: Create or Modify, Ending Set: All People, Action Activity: the one you created in step #1

    If that didn't work, it may be beacuse the MPR isn't correctly firing.  You can look in the request history to see what MPRs were applied.

    Also, make sure in the ILM MA,
    1) that you have the ILM Person object mapped to the Person object in the Metaverse
    2) that you import from the ILM Person object the ExpectedRuleList attribute into the metaverse.

    Joseph,

    the intended order is

    1. Introduction to Inbound Synchronization 
    2. Introduction to Outbund Synchronization
    3. Publishing Active Directory Users From Two Authoritative Data Sources

    You should work your way through provisioning this way :o)

    Please let me know if you have questions.

    Cheers,
    Markus

    Markus,

    I started over with the ILM 2  and I'm working on #2, Introduction to Outbound Sync...

    The user I created doesn't have anything int he Expected rules list. (This expected rules list does not contain any entry.)

    What might I be missing?

    Thanks

    Ok, weird, I added another user in ILM and that one has the entry in the expected rules list.  It still doesn't export though.
