70-158 Question #25: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

Your company network includes Forefront Identity Manager (FIM) 2010. You use the Management Agent (MA) for delimited text files. The import and export flows of these text files must be successful. An example of the delimited text files that will be used is shown below. You need to ensure that the MA for delimited text files will function correctly. What should you do? (Choose all that apply.)

Options

• AModify records to appear as single-line entries.
• BEdit the schema for use along with the text file.
• CRemove end-of-line characters between records.
• DReplace comma with semicolon as the delimiting character.
• EArrange multivalued attributes and header names to appear in sequential order.

Explanation

In FIM 2010, the Management Agent for delimited text files requires records to be single-line entries and multivalued attributes with headers in sequential order to process imports and exports correctly.

Common mistakes.

• B. Editing the schema alone does not resolve formatting issues within the text file itself; the schema defines attribute mappings but cannot compensate for malformed record structure or line-break problems.
• C. End-of-line characters between records are required by the MA to delimit one record from another; removing them would merge records together and break the parsing logic entirely.
• D. The FIM MA for delimited text files supports both comma and semicolon as delimiter characters through configuration, so replacing the delimiter is not required to ensure correct functionality.
