I suddenly have an error with a connector that is one of three identical Powershell connectors (same underlying scripts, just different parameters specifying target domain). The data gathering part of the script is working fine. The script is also getting through the entire entity creation loop (I have dropped detailed logs), but is then failing after that (ie at the end of the script) with 0 entities created.

This is the error reported in the IdB log:

Change detection engine import all items failed.

Attempted an upgrade of Identity Broker from v5.2 to v5.3, the upgrade process failed running the following SQL Commands

ALTER DATABASE [Unify.IdentityBroker_DEVAP610] SET RECOVERY SIMPLE;

ALTER DATABASE [Unify.IdentityBroker_DEVAP610] MODIFY FILE (NAME=[Unify.IdentityBroker_DEVAP610], FILEGROWTH=100MB);

ALTER DATABASE [Unify.IdentityBroker_DEVAP610] MODIFY FILE (NAME=[Unify.IdentityBroker_DEVAP610_log], FILEGROWTH=100MB);

The installer did not revert to the previous version of Identity Broker, instead it removed the service from the Services window.

I located the commands above in the Windows application log and attempted to run the command in SQL directly, it did not work as the files were named differently than names in the SQL Configuration.

In this case I renamed the SQL files as it is non-production and was able to run the installer successfully. I recall this issue with v5.2 and run through the DB manual upgrade process. I think this needs to be fixed for users that are not as familiar with installation options.

I am also not sure the settings should be made in the installer, if the SQL instance is clustered it will not support simple logging, also in large implementations I normally make the database file group by 1GB.

Currently the connector test harness is great for copying a current connector schema, exporting its entities to CSV and then modifying that data to run operations against an end system through a connector.

Would it be possible to expand the functionality of the test harness, to allow operations on internal entities?
The idea is that you could clone a connector schema, copy its entities to CSV, and then modify those entities to mock changes through IDB. This would allow you to test adapter configuration or mock specific changes to entities without needing to modify the connector/adapter configuration to point to a different connector.

This would be useful for times when you want to test specific cases through the system but don't have access to make the changes in the end system, or don't want to export that kind of data out to the end system. It also allows you to speed up the testing process as you'd just be 'replacing' the 'import from end system' step in the process - the rest of the workflow would still happen, so it would allow for extensive (and potentially automated) configuration testing.

Connector imports are completed before the Adapter reflection process is complete. When using Event Broker to schedule operations of Identity Broker and MIM this means that processing activity is still running when the next action runs.

In MIM this often results in a failed Delta Import and in Identity Broker multiple actions are running simultaneously further delaying reflection processing.

In connectors with large numbers of entities and several columns (especially multi-valued) or where there has been a significant amount of data change this can be several minutes after the Connector import has completed.

Ideally the Connector would show that it is still processing forcing Event Broker to wait for it to complete or add a way for Event Broker to wait until Adapter reflection is completed before running MIM operation.

I'm having an issue after installing 5.3 over 5.2. 

The details are as follows:

Do we have a list somewhere of all the attributes that can be set through out Aurion Security User connector? Is this picture on this page definitive, or are there others? https://voice.unifysolutions.net/knowledge-bases/7/articles/3114-aurion-security-user-connector

Customer wants to set an attribute named "Consolidate" to "yes". I can import it but haven't managed to update it.

Since updating to 5.2 I've noticed that the one Powershell transform I'm using in an adapter is now displaying an error message in the UI, though the transform itself still looks to be functioning. Here's the error displayed in the UI:

This is the adapter config:

Google passwords are not being set on creation, subsequent resets in AD are synchronised successfully.

In MIM the export_password attribute is set with the desired password, I was unable to find any information about this attribute or how to configure the Password Script in the Google Connector.

Unsure of when this started to re-occur as most users authenticate via the IDP, however Chromebooks authenticate directly. It appears this issue has occurred before https://voice.unifysolutions.net/communities/6/topics/2816-passwords-are-not-set-on-google-account-creation however the key is configured to be email address.

Identity Broker: v5.2.0 Revision #3
Google Connector: 5.2.0.2
Unify.IdentityBroker.Communicator.Google.dll: 5.2.0.1

I have just upgraded IdB in TEST to 5.2, and migrated in the Connector and Adapter files from Dev. Dev was already on 5.2 and all connectors are working.

In TEST all of the new Connectors (names "PowerShell HomeFolder*" and "PowerShell MemberOf*") are failing with the error below. The "Powershell Exchange*" connectors work fine (though they already pre-existing in IdB 5.1 before I upgraded to 5.2).

The Connector config file is the same as the one I sent with the previous question. While the error looks very similar to that one it can't be the same - that was a duplicate schema mapping in the connector config, but Powershell connectors don't have schema mapping.

My Import scripts drop a full log of all entity values before running the $entity.Create ... $entity.Commit loop. There are no duplicate sAMAccountNames.

Note that when I did the IdB database upgrade in Test I removed the final lines from the script as told to do here. I don't seem to have had any problems with this in Dev, but thought it worth mentioning.
