In order to stop Evb from running operations during backups (which has been causing the sync service to stall) we have put in place exclusions in the schedules for each operation. These are from 22:50 to 00:30 every day of the week.
These seem to be working for all days except on Saturday night. All operations stopped at 22:50, but started again just after midnight. Not sure if this is because that is the end of the week and the exclusions do not roll-over to the next week.
This has currently failed once, so I will be monitoring it after next Sat night to confirm the issue is repeatable.

After creating a FIM Agent, go back and reconfigure it. Theres an additional field on the page titled "Success Statuses" that wasnt there on creation. Hovering over it has a note referring to its purpose being in the documentation but I can see no mention of this field in the wiki.

My knowledge of Active Directory and Event Broker is very limited.

I have read https://unifysolutions.jira.com/wiki/display/EB300/Active+Directory+Changes and https://unifysolutions.jira.com/wiki/display/EB300/Active+Directory+Sync+Changes and understood that the later uses the Directory Synchronization Cookie method.

What I do not understand is why different method of detecting the Active Directory changes is required and when to use which method. Eg different version of Active Directory?

I would appreciate if someone could help clarifying this for me.

Thank you in advance for your time and help.

From IDB-528, please create a html extension to render required fields; additionally determine the best way this can be represented on the UI.

Received the following from Victor Maceda (NZ Parliament):

Hi Adam,

I got a question regarding run profiles in event broker. If for example an operation is running for a delta import and delta sync (every 15 minutes) and there’s another schedule to run a full import full sync (daily at 4 am). The schedule coincide while to other is still running. Will event broker queue this and run the next until the previous job is completed?

Cheers,

Victor Maceda

Sometimes I cannot select other items on the page. I tried to click logging during the screenshot taken above and it wouldn't take me there.

While the activity (AIC) installs correctly, the installer PowerShell script throws errors when run via the ISE:

Hi Team,

Looks like the issue discussed in the issue below is back, the Event Broker service terminates and needs be be restarted.

If Event Broker gets installed with the wrong service account does it need to be un-installed and re-installed or is the service account that is specified at install time only used for the account the EvB service runs under meaning that I could just update that in the services managemet console?

Will send Word attachment including screenshots

1. Open Event Broker http://pnap502.bne.catholic.edu.au:8081/ and logon
2. Choose Operations > Create new operation list
3. Name: Test Operation
4. Create the operations below (only non-default it to Run next operation on failure)
5. Enable Operation List
6. Click Operation tab and confirm new list displays
7. Stop and Start the UNIFY Event Broker service
8. Re-Launch Event Broker console and logon
9. Check Operations List – Gone
