Question

You use Forefront Identity Manager (FIM) 2010 to provision user accounts between Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) and multiple external directory services. You create a new Management Agent (MA) to synchronize Active Directory accounts with a third- party directory service. You need to confirm that the account objects will be joined to the correct metaverse object. What should you do?

Why each option

To confirm that new user accounts provisioned by a new Management Agent (MA) in FIM 2010 will correctly join existing metaverse objects, you should generate a run synchronization preview.

AUse MPR Explorer.

MPR Explorer is used for viewing and troubleshooting Management Policy Rules in the FIM portal, not for previewing object synchronization into the metaverse.

BUse the Metaverse Search feature.

The Metaverse Search feature helps find and inspect existing objects in the metaverse, but it does not simulate how new objects from a new MA would be joined.

CGenerate a run synchronization preview.Correct

Generating a run synchronization preview allows you to simulate the synchronization process for specific objects without committing changes, providing a detailed step-by-step view of how an object will be joined to or projected into the metaverse and how attributes will flow. This is the ideal method for verifying join rules and attribute flow for a newly configured Management Agent before a full synchronization run.

DFrom the Set Log File Options_ Import dialog box, enable the Resume run from existing log file and

Enabling 'Resume run from existing log file' is an operational setting for recovering from an interrupted synchronization run and does not provide a preview of new object joins or attribute flow.
