Known issues in this update

Synchronization serviceAfter this update is installed, rules extensions and custom management agents (MAs) that are based on Extensible MA (ECMA1 or ECMA 2.0) may not run and may produce a run status of "stopped-extension-dll-load." This issue occurs when you run such rules extensions or custom MAs after you change the configuration file (.config) for one of the following processes:

  • MIIServer.exe

  • Mmsscrpt.exe

  • Dllhost.exe

For example, you edited the MIIServer.exe.config file to change the default batch size for processing sync entries for the FIM Service MA.In this case, the synchronization engine installer for this update intentionally does not replace the configuration file to avoid deleting your previous changes. Because the configuration file is not replaced, entries that are required by this update will not be present in the files, and the synchronization engine will not load any rules extension DLLs when the engine runs a Full Import or Delta Sync run profile.To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

  1. Make a backup copy of the MIIServer.exe.config file.

  2. Open the MIIServer.exe.config file in a text editor or in Microsoft Visual Studio.

  3. Find the <runtime> section in the MIIServer.exe.config file, and then replace the content of the <dependentAssembly> section with the following:

    <dependentAssembly><assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.MetadirectoryServicesEx" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="3.3.0.0-4.1.3.0" newVersion="4.1.4.0" /></dependentAssembly

  4. Save the changes to the file.

  5. Find the Mmsscrpt.exe.config file in the same directory and the Dllhost.exe.config in the parent directory. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for these two files.

  6. Restart the Forefront Identity Manager Synchronization Service (FIMSynchronizationService).

  7. Verify that the rules extensions and custom management agents now work as expected.

FIM ReportingIf you install FIM Reporting on a new server that has Microsoft System Center 2012 Service Manager Service Pack 1 installed, follow these steps:

  1. Install the FIM 2010 R2 SP1 FIMService component. To do this, click to clear the Reporting check box.

  2. Install this hotfix rollup to upgrade the FIM Service to build 4.1.3646.0.

  3. Run the change-mode installation for the FIM Service, and then add Reporting.

If reporting is enabled and the change-mode installation is run for FIM Service and Portal, you must re-enable reporting. To do this in the FIM Identity Management Portal, follow these steps:

  1. On the Administration menu, click All Resources.

  2. Under All Resources, click System Configuration Settings.

  3. Click the System Configuration Settings object, and then open the properties of this object.

  4. Click Extended Attributes, and then select the Reporting Logging Enabled check box.

  5. Click OK, and then click Submit to save the change.

Prerequisites

To apply this update, you must have Forefront Identity Manager 2010 R2 (build 4.1.3419.0 or a later build) installed.

Restart requirement

You must restart the computer after you apply the Add-ins and Extensions (Fimaddinsextensions_xnn_kb3054196.msp) package. Additionally, you may have to restart the server components.

More Information

Issues that are fixed or features that are added in this update

This update fixes the following issues or adds the following features that were not previously documented in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.

FIM Service

Issue 1

When you update the criteria of a group or set, you receive a SQL error if negative conditions exceed 7 in the filter when you click View members. After you apply this update, the View Members button works as expected.

FIM service portals, add-ins and extensions

Issue 1

When you use the FIM Credential Provider Extension for Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR), you cannot answer by using double-byte characters through the Windows Input Method Editor (IME) in the "Question and Answer" gate. After you apply this update double-byte characters are not permitted when you are first creating answers.

Issue 2

On the FIM Password Registration and Password Reset websites, autocomplete was not disabled for the logon forms. After you apply this update, autocomplete is disabled for all logon forms.

Issue 3

After you apply this update, the Object Picker control in the FIM Identity Management Portal returns invalid results if there were special characters in the search string. After you apply this update, the Object Picker control parses the HTML strings correctly so that the Object Picker control returns the correct results.

Certificate management

Issue 1

The revocation settings in a profile template can only be configured for all certificates together and not for each certificate separately. After you apply this update, the administrator can configure the following settings from the Revocation Settings page for each certificate in the policy:

  • RevokeThisCertificate

  • PublishBaseCRL

  • PublishDeltaCRL

Related changes in the FIM CM APIChanges in the FIM CM API were also made to accommodate this change.

  • Properties of Microsoft.Clm.Shared.ProfileTemplates.RevocationOptions that were changed or added.

    PublishBaseCrl

    This property is obsolete. Use the PublishBaseCRL property from CertificateTemplateRevocationOptions instead.

    PublishDeltaCrl

    This property is obsolete. Use the PublishDeltaCRL property from CertificateTemplateRevocationOptions instead.

    RevokeOldCertificates

    This property is obsolete. Use the RevokeThisCertificate property from CertificateTemplateRevocationOptions instead.

    CertificateTemplateRevocationSettings

    Collection with configuration for each certificate template in the profile templateCertificateTemplateRevocationSettings is ReadOnlyCollection of Microsoft.Clm.Shared.ProfileTemplates.CertificateTemplateRevocationOptions type:

    public ReadOnlyCollection<CertificateTemplateRevocationOptions> CertificateTemplateRevocationSettings { get; }

  • New object Microsoft.Clm.Shared.ProfileTemplates.CertificateTemplateRevocationOptions has the following properties.

    CertificateTemplateCommonName

    Obtains the string value together with the common name of the current certificate

    RevokeThisCertificate

    Obtains a Boolean value that indicates whether the current certificate that is associated with the smart card or the software profile that is to be operated on during a revoke operation will also be revoked.

    PublishBaseCRL

    Obtains a Boolean value that indicates whether a revocation operation causes the base certificate revocation list (CRL) to be published.

    PublishDeltaCRL

    Obtains a Boolean value that indicates whether a revocation operation causes a delta CRL to be published.

FIM synchronization service

Issue 1

The management agent for Active Directory receives a "Replication Access Denied" error when you run a Delta Import run profile step on domains that contain a read-only domain controller (RODC).The documentation currently indicates that the account that is used in the management agent for Active Directory should have replicating directory changes. This is insufficient for domains that have the RODC feature enabled. The account that is used in the management agent for Active Directory should also be granted the replication directory changes in filter set permission to run Delta Import in such domains.

Issue 2

When a new synchronization rule is created and is projected into the metaverse, the following situation occurs whenever a synchronization rule does not project because of a synchronization error:

  • The synchronization exception causes the synchronization engine to remove the newly projected metaverse object because the synchronization failed.

  • The synchronization engine does not remove the import attribute flow rules that were added in the server configuration during the synchronization of the metaverse object.

Effect

  • Changes to the existing synchronization rule that failed initial sync do no resolve the problem.

  • The replacement of that synchronization rule does not resolve the problem.

After you apply this update, synchronization rule fragments will not be left in the server configuration when an attempt at failed projection or synchronization is made.

BHOLD and Access Management Connector

Issue 1

When you create delta-attestation campaign in BHOLD Analytics, an error message is displayed regardless of whether the campaign was created. After you apply this update, the error message is displayed only if there were errors when the campaign was created.

Issue 2

In BHOLD Attestation, user interface elements may not be available with new versions of Internet Explorer. After you apply this update, web forms work and are displayed as expected.
