Question

You deploy Forefront Identity Manager (FIM) 2010 in your company network to provide an identity management solution between an HR application and Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). Part of the solution includes two Management Agents of the following types: AD DS Management Agent (AD MA) HR Management Agent (HR MA). You need to prevent the critical loss of objects in the HR connector space and in the connected HR data source. You configure Run Profiles. What should you do next?

Options

  • ASpecify the custom data of the batch size (objects).
  • BSpecify the custom data of the page size (objects).
  • CEnable the Specify the number of deletions to process option.
  • DEnable the Specify the number of objects to process option.

Why each option

To prevent critical loss of objects from the HR connector space and data source in FIM 2010, the next step after configuring Run Profiles is to enable and configure the deletion threshold.

ASpecify the custom data of the batch size (objects).

Specifying the batch size primarily optimizes the performance of data export operations by grouping objects, not directly preventing accidental mass deletions.

BSpecify the custom data of the page size (objects).

Specifying the page size impacts how many objects are retrieved per query during an import, mainly affecting performance and memory usage, not preventing deletions.

CEnable the Specify the number of deletions to process option.Correct

This option, known as the deletion threshold, allows an administrator to define an acceptable number of deletions for a Management Agent run. If the actual number of detected deletions exceeds this threshold during synchronization, the run will automatically stop, preventing accidental or erroneous mass deletions from propagating to the connected HR data source and safeguarding critical identity objects.

DEnable the Specify the number of objects to process option.

Enabling the option to specify the number of objects to process limits the total objects processed in a run, which is not the specific control for preventing critical object loss due to mass deletions.
