HI,
In our environment FIM Synchronization Server is used to synchronise the user attributes and creation of mailbox on exchnage server. 4 AD MA are configured to sync the configured to sync the user attributes and rule extension(.net source code) is used
to create a mailbox on exchnage server.
Existing infrastructure:FIM 2010 R2 SP-1 and OS is 2008 and database SQL Server 2008.
We are migrating the existing FIM environment to new plateform windows 2012 and database 2012.
There are two approach as below.Please confirm which will be better and any other points to be taken care.
Approach 1:
1. Create new service account and security groups before new installation.
2. Install the FIM Synchronization server using the new database sql 2012.
3. Export the schema from old FIM environment and import to new environment.
4 Export the all the MA from old environment and import in new environment.
5. Uncheck the deprovision option and check the precedence of attributes.
6. Move the rule extension dll files from old env to new env.
7. Change the service account used in the MA.
8. Run the full import of the 4 AD MA.
9. Run the Full sync of 4 AD MA.
10.RUN the export for 4 AD.
11.Once it works fine, schedule the task scheduler.
------------------
Approach 2:
1. Move the old FIM database to new sql server 2012.
2. Install the FIM Synchronization and select option reuse existing database.
3. Uncheck the deprovision option.
4. Move the rule extension dll files from old environment to new server.
5. Run the full import,sync and export profile.
However,I don't know the credentails of old MA, encryption key. So password of the service account can be reset directory on the AD and then reset the password in the configured MA.
Thanks
Harry
