MIM Synchronization Troubleshooting: Event ID 6301: export-flow failed 0x80230304

Article
1/17/2024

Recently worked on an issue that was a bit strange and produced a large BAIL error in the event log.

Environment

FIM 2010 RTM (4.00.2592.0) & (4.00.3576.2)
Mixture of several management agents, where one was a SQL Server Management Agent

Problem statement

You are running synchronizations on one of your management agents that creates an object in your SQL Server Management Agent. In doing so, you notice that you receive some synchronization errors.

You preview the object to attempt and discover the issue, and find that you have the attribute <object-id> attempting to synchronize with another attribute. In this case, it was extensionAttribute11.

You review the management agent properties, and discover that you do not have flow configured for <object-id>.

Reviewing the Application Event Log, you find some bail errors for the FIMSynchronizationService logged on Event ID 6301.

Cause

After a close investigation, we found that the table being referenced in the SQL Server Management Agent contained a field with the name Object-ID. The Synchronization Service engine works with a field/attribute called object-id. The Synchronization Engine had problems with the SQL Server Management Agent having a field/attribute called Object-ID.

Resolution

In this case, we removed the “-“ from the Object-ID field name in the underlying table for the SQL Server Management Agent. Once we removed the “-“, we were able to synchronize without issue.
