Hi,

Running FIM 2010 R2 SP1 (4.1.3613.0) and have a very simple Outbound System Scoped Sync Rule, setting the following attributes:

• initial password
• initial DN

The sync rule works, as users are provisioned in the target system. However the FIM MA generates the "Sync-rule-validation-parsing-error". Even if we remove all the attributes from the sync rule, the error continues to exists. We have also recreated the rule.

Any ideas why we're getting the error message (and the rule is working)?

Here is the extract of the Sync Rule:

Hi,

We have now created a traditional sync rule with the same attribute export flows as above, that uses MPR, Workflow, Set transition...and FIM now displays 2 sync-rule-validation-parsing-error messages.

Any ideas?

one more thing - should I see the Scoped Outbound Sync Rule in the MV? As I see nothing. And yet it is provisioning new users.
