I don’t know how many times I’ve used the RCDC documentation, but somehow never noticed the bit on Environment Variables. Today however I was looking for a way to restrict the scope of a UocListView or UocIdentityPicker based on properties of the user being edited – and it turns out that you can reference any [...]
Something that has come up from time to time on the FIM forum is the need to trigger an AuthZ workflow based on some change made by an Action workflow (or by the Sync Service). This is not possible in the FIM Service today and I don’t see any evidence that it will be possible in the [...]
I have just installed the reporting for FIM R2 RC and generated my first reports. Though when I say “just” read that as “spent two days on it and reinstalled twice”. However it is now working (yay! Was it worth it? Not sure yet!) and here’s my write-up.

Whenever I launched Synchronization Service Manager, and sometimes even just when opening the properties of a MA, everything would stop while the server seemingly tried to install something in the background. Running taskmgr.exe revealed Microsoft.IdentityManagement.SolutionPackUtility.exe and TrustedInstaller.exe were running.
Regular readers of this blog will know that, a few months ago, I made a big move from Europe back to my native Australia. All our stuff finally turned up a couple of weeks ago, and while looking for something else on a harddrive I came across this recording I made which demonstrates part of [...]
Today’s post is my 200th. As my 100th post slipped by without me noticing I’m going to give myself a self-indulgent look back over the history of missmiis to celebrate this milestone.
