Deprovisioning from SQL table

[Ivan]

Is this a bug?

Environment:
MIIS V. 3.1.1036.0
SQL Server 2000 SP4

Scenario:

I am using MIIS to provision/deprovision from a SQL table, named "Source",
used as the authoritative source for 2 endpoints:
1) AD
2) Another table in the SQL database named "Consumer"

*3 Management Agents total, one for each sql table and one for the AD.

The flow of attributes are simply from source to end points. I've gotten the
provisioning to AD and the other SQL datatable to run without issues. The
deprovisioning rule for both the management agents are set to:
"Stage a delete on the object for next export run"

The issue is: when an object entry is deleted from the authoritative
source, "Source", the corresponding AD entry is deleted and the connector
space object in the AD management agent is removed; however, for the other
SQL datatable, "Consumer", the corresponding row entry is deleted but the
connector space object is not deleted. Instead the CSObject is put into
"Explicit Disconnector" state with its DN value still intacted (all other
attributes are removed).

Is this a bug? If not, how do I work around it so that the CSObject in the
"Consumer" sql management agent's connector space gets deleted?

What's your object deletion rule set as? (Metaverse Designer page)

It is set to delete metaverse object when the connector from this management
agent is disconnected: (The Source SQL table MA)

Again, the MV object is deleted correctly, but the object in the SQL 2000 MA
(Consumer) is not being deleted from its connector space.

My other endpoint, AD MA deletes its connector space object without issue.

Ivan,



what you are describing is not an intended behavior.



Please "triple-check" ;o) your deprovisioning configuration for that MA to
make sure that this is not a configuration issue.



If your deprovisioning rule is not set to "make them explicit disconnectors"
you are unfortunately facing a PSS issue.



In this case, please contact our friends from PSS.



Cheers,
Markus

dMarkus,

Configuring the deprovision to: "Stage a delete on the object for next
export run" should be deleting the CS object as well as the object in the
endpoint system; in my case AD and a SQL table right? I am not using any
custom deprovision extensions.

If so, how do i start a PSS issue?

Thanks in advance,
Ivan
