Service does not start due to existing files when installing to the same directory as v3.0.7
When attempting to install v4.0 to the same directory as v3.0.7, all the new extensibility files are added to the directory, and all the old ones are kept. When attempting to start the service, the following error appears:
Error - The following occurred in module: General server error: Cannot create a file when that file already exists.

IDB - Saved empty config on write error
On saving configuration when there is no disk space, the following exception is thrown: System.IO.IOException: There is not enough space on the disk. The saved configuration file is then empty. As there is nothing that can be done at this point to save the file (it's gone and the OS is refusing writes), explore whether the file can be renamed before writing out the new file, then delete the renamed file. The thing stopping this from being viable it will require further permissions for the service account (may be okay, as it already does for the logs).
HI Gents,
Encountered a concerning issue with Identity Broker in the TAFE Dev environment this afternoon. On creating and saving a new connector, the following error was thrown due to a disk space issue on the drive: System.IO.IOException: There is not enough space on the disk.
A little investigation revealed that someone had left WCF tracing running on the service, and it had built up a considerable file. Needless to say, I stopped the service, disabled the tracing and cleared away the log file.
On attempting to restart the service, the following error was thrown:
Service cannot be started. Unify.Framework.UnifyServiceInitializeException: Root element is missing. ---> System.Xml.XmlException: Root element is missing.
Investigation revealed that the ConnectorEngine extensibility file was empty/blank. It appears that when it failed to add the connector, it actually saved a blank config. I imagine the same would have happened had I attempted to add an agent or adapter.
I was able to restore the configuration from a backup, but thought this should be raised with your team
Cheers
Richard
Error Importing to ILM - DN generation failed error
DN generation failed for entity with id 94622d75-68ef-4c1a-831a-00052f7b631a. In order to use the Entity Key DN Generator, all key fields must have a value.
Seems as though IdB is assigning attributes to be keys during transformations, which is causing imports to fail.
The following attributes are all listed as keys, when only the top two should be.
Name Type Key Required Read-only
adrtype String True True True
detnumber String True True True
mgrdetnumber String True True True
mgrposstart Date True True True
posstart Date True True True

DN template broken on upgrade from v4.0 to v4.1
The DN templates are broken on upgrade from v4.0 to v4.1. For example:
<dn xmlns="">
<dnComponent name=<span class="code-quote">"Field"</span> id=<span class="code-quote">"28774c0e-011c-4241-a484-4bd58f9170bf"</span> attributeType=<span class="code-quote">"UID"</span> key=<span class="code-quote">"RecordId"</span> />
<dnComponent name=<span class="code-quote">"Constant"</span> id=<span class="code-quote">"478f7ec4-c400-4b1e-b3db-cb5c676feca7"</span> attributeType=<span class="code-quote">"OU"</span> value=<span class="code-quote">"org"</span> />
<dnComponent name=<span class="code-quote">"Constant"</span> id=<span class="code-quote">"226cbcd6-1d19-4ff4-97f1-e0aac0b80374"</span> attributeType=<span class="code-quote">"DC"</span> value=<span class="code-quote">"CHRIS21DEMODC"</span> />
</dn>
This dn generator turns into UID=RecordId+DC=CHRIS21DEMODC (this is known due to a failed export), but then when edited is blank.
The upgrade should give a template of UID=RecordId,OU=org,DC=CHRIS21DEMODC and the UI should hopefully reflect this. It would be nice to have the new template saved back to the file, but not essential.
How to set a an Adapter in IdB to filter the "Offset" on days and not Hours
The requirement is that accounts must be provisioned if they will the date commenced is less than 7 days:
I want to set "DateActive" to filter the offset against days.
I did see the following, but don't know how to configure the offset for days:
A Time value type is defined in the following manner: [ws][sign]d|[d.]hh:mm[:ss[.ff]][ws]
<adapter name="TimeOffsetFlag" SourceColumn="DateActive" DestinationColumn="EmployeeStarted" Offset="10:00:00" EqualValue="True" GreaterValue="False" LesserValue="True" NullValue="False" />
Required schema fields block updates
If an adapter has a field marked as required, all update attempts fail validation. I have recreated this with a chris21 composite adapter, and a singular CSV adapter. The following errors appear in the logs and the second is thrown back to FIM:

Relational connector changes do not clear change cache in statistics engine
The adapter statistics engine only clears changes on base-connector-adapters on connector change detection.
See: AdapterStatisticsEnginePlugInFactory, id => adapterEngine.GetBaseConnectorAdapters(id).Select(adapter => adapter.Adapter.Key)), line 65
