FIM 2010 R2 Showdown: Classic vs. Declarative

April 30, 2012

Well I delivered my session FIM 2010 R2 Showdown: Classic vs. Declarative. During lunch they changed the location. But the room was packed by 5 min after I began (guessing about 45-50 people). Many familiar faces. We had a rollicking good time. I presented how things worked with Classic and Declarative presented some findings and asked for other opinions. Boy did I receive them.

When using the uocListView control in the FIM RCDC you can have it return a list of objects. However when you open them, they also open for viewing, not editing. The key to this is to add a button control inside the uocListView control. You then specify the redirectURL property for the button. Additionally ShowActionBar must be true, ItemClickBehavior must be ModelessDialog (which is the default). Enable Selection must also be true.

FIM has two databases (well three if we count the FIM Certificate Management service): FIMService FIMSynchronizationService Here is a calculator in excel that you can download and use to calculate how big to make your databases. In my experience the FIMService database size depends mostly on how many request objects are in the database. The FIM Sync Database depends mostly on how much run history details (step object details) you generate and keep.

February 28, 2012

FIM 2010 Update Rollup 2 is now available. Download from here Before blindly applying this update it is critical that you read the release notes, as XMA’s or ECMA’s may not run after the update. If you changed the MIISServer.exe.config file to tweak the FIM MA performance the update won’t replace your file. So you have to make some updates to it by hand. This is documented in the release notes.

Congrats! This is interesting area -and product … Savolainen Semi Seniori - May 6, 2012Congrats! This is interesting area -and product but suffers from availability of learning materials.. Like i couldn’t find practice tests at all. And im used to study with those MS presss books and their companion CD’s with practice tests.
