Mim 2016 Allow Null deprecated features

Luca Tenti 20

Hi, migrating an old IAM solution from FIM 2010 to MIM 2016 SP2 I see there are some deprecated features.

One of these is about "allow null":

"Unselect “allow nulls” for exported values.

This feature will not be replaced. “Allow Nulls” will always be selected. You should make sure that you have “Allow Nulls” selected in your current environment."

This means that all my management agent export flow must have allow null values checked, but I want to know if also FIM Portal Synch Rule need to have this flag checked. ("allow null value to flow to destination").

This flag by default is empty so it can be a huge configuration impact.

Thank you.

Best regards

The deprecated "allow null" functionality for export is still there, so no need to handle them in the migration.

But over time you should consider rebuilding to not use this functionality.

Thank you Leo.

I think that it can be delayed at the end of migration.

Best regards.
