Overview • Setting up the User Profile Service • Debugging the UPS (and sync) • Advanced UPS Features and Customizations
Assumptions • No Farm Config Wizard • Using Active Directory • Domain Accounts • NetBIOS name is the same as the FQDN • Users in AD
Permissions • Farm Account • Log on Locally (Set first) • Administrator (Only during Provisioning) • Sync Account • Replicating Directory Changes Permissions • Content Access Account • User Profile Service Account
Errors • Add NETWORK-SERVICE to WSS_WPG group

Advanced Sync Topics • Map custom AD attributes • User Profile sub-types • Create advanced profile import filters • Multiple And / OR • CANNOT GO BACK TO CA UI!!!! • FIM • Global Audiences
Diagnosing Common Issues • FIM • 99% of the time, permissions are the issue • Farm Account must be local admin during the sync • Farm Account must have “Allow Log on Locally” • Sync Account needs “Replicating Directory Changes” permission in AD • IISRESET, Logon / Logoff, and Restart SharePoint Timer Service before starting the UPSA • IISRESET after starting the UPSA
Sync Issues – Domain Permissions • FIM • Status – Stopped-connectivity • Connection Status – Failed search • Replicating Directory Changes Permissions
Tips • Add a link to the User Profile Service and Search Service on the resources list on the homepage and on possibly the Top Link bar • Install SP1 and the August 2011 CU at least • April CU refresh offers even better UPS goodies
Gotchas • Oct 2011 CU breaks profile photos. • Sync Database size • Fixed in April CU (be careful of the version of April CU since it was rescinded by Microsoft – new v .5006) • Also can be handled by deleting the Sync DB and reprovisioning UPA. • Remember the Sync DB is only a staging environment • Keep the social and profile DBs! • Politics • Who owns the identities, does the data come from multiple teams, how will the connections work, if you do write-back, who becomes the authoritative source?
