You didn't miss this update, did you?

Many of you may already have this one, but I'm just logging it here, so that I have a good link to send to my customers - and hopefully some other FIM 2010 lost souls outthere can make use of these as well.

The FIM 2010 Update 1 can be found at http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/search.aspx?q=kb978864

And there is a good thread on whats included in the update at http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ilm2/thread/b21e08a5-d2be-4bf1-a53f-248b5a9cc6e3

Are you documenting FIM 2010 setup?

If you're actually doing documentation of FIM 2010 chances are that you'll be using Visio for some of the documentation with regards to i.e. workflows.

If you're using Visio, you want to take a look at Brad Turner's stencils for FIM 2010. Get them here.

Great job, Brad...

FIM 2010 Housekeeping

One issue that is always going to be present is the cleaning of your requests in FIM - like your Run History in the Synchronization Service. Brad Turner did a good blog on this based on input from Henrik Nilsson.

You really should read this in order to keep your SQL administrators happy... and the performance of FIM good.
