When checking the prerequisites for a migration to SPS 2013 in order to identify missing features, assemblies or webpart please execute it from one of WFE instead of the Central Admin because if not you will have false positives if you have customer code.

]]> SharePoint 2013 & SQL 2014 Issues with User Synchronization https://docs.microsoft.com/archive/blogs/calvarro/sharepoint-2013-sql-2014-issues-with-user-synchronization Wed, 22 Jul 2015 02:36:51 GMT https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/calvarro/2015/07/22/sharepoint-2013-sql-2014-issues-with-user-synchronization/ Hello

I would like to tak about a experience that happened to me during a migration at a customer.

It turned out that the UPA was totally stuck starting and after a while stopped. When we were checking the SharePoint logs we found the following

UserProfileApplication.SynchronizeMIIS: Failed to configure MIIS post database, will attempt during next rerun. Exception: System.Configuration.ConfigurationErrorsException: ERR_CONFIG_DB   
at Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.Synchronization.ILMPostSetupConfiguration.ValidateConfigurationResult(UInt32 result)   
at Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.Synchronization.ILMPostSetupConfiguration.ConfigureMiisStage2()   
at Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.UserProfileApplication.SetupSynchronizationService(ProfileSynchronizationServiceInstance profileSyncInstance).

Cheking on our internal Knowledge Base we found that April 2014 CU solved the issue and when you go directly to the KB article page, it states

If you have Microsoft SQL Server 2014, you cannot run profile synchronization in SharePoint Server 2013 SP1 by using the Forefront Identity Management engine.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2760265

So if you are in a considering to migrate to SPS 2013 SP1 from SharePoint 2010 or 2007 and you want to use SQL Server 2014, you must install SPS 2013 SP1 + April 2014 CU to have user synchronization.

]]> Visio Stencils for your Topology farm. https://docs.microsoft.com/archive/blogs/calvarro/visio-stencils-for-your-topology-farm Wed, 09 Jul 2014 05:16:00 GMT https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/calvarro/2014/07/09/visio-stencils-for-your-topology-farm/ Helo

Lately, I see on customers farm topologies drawn by hand, with strange icons etc

The truth must be told, my point is the most elegant way to draw those topologies is via Visio and the New Office Stencils. For instance, the following one extracted from a Product group white paper

 

BTW, these stencils are not only limited to SharePoint any product related to New Office has its own icon like Lync v.g.

In order to have them you have to download them from

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35772

and set them up following the next guide

https://office.microsoft.com/en-us/visio-help/import-downloaded-stencils-HA103465535.aspx

I hope it will like you.
