Managing Office 365 Licenses with #MIM2016 and #AzMan – Part 2
In my last post I introduced the concept of using Windows Authorisation Manager (AzMan) to manage the automation of Office 365 licenses. In this post I will go into detail on how the solution hangs together. Complementing AAD Connect with … Continue reading
Building in #MIM2016 Solution Resilience
Disasters can happen for all sorts of reasons, and when we’re automating we risk large-scale mishaps. What sort of precautions do you take to disaster-proof (or at least contain) your IAM solution? Continue reading
#FIM2010 R2 Scoped Sync Rules – Part 2 (The Experience)
So I decided to take up the challenge on a recent FIM2010 R2 project – outlined in the first part of this post. Lets just say there are plenty of FIM folk who would simply ask ‘why?’ … Why would … Continue reading

Error saving the FIM Sync key set
Ran into something unusual just now with the FIM R2 Sync install – at the end of the install after having selected a folder to save the *.bin file to, there was a delay of about 30 seconds before I … Continue reading
What is Identity Broker?
To paraphrase an earlier post, FIM Sync would be easy if every system or application was as straight-forward to provision and sync with as the AD or ADLDS connector. It struck me sitting in Chris Cox’s FIM 2010 RC0 training … Continue reading

If you have a look at this thread, and others like it, you will see that one of the recommended fixes is to restart the server. It always seems such a cop-out type of fix to do this – sort … Continue reading
When one FIM sync server just might not be enough?
