<p>Hi Pavol,<br>
Thanks for the answer. Don't know if this is a bug or my bad syncing configuration. I can avoid it by syncing in following order:<br>
First, doing reconciliation of AD groups -> this restores the deleted AD group<br>
Second, doing reconciliation of AD/Exchange users -> this restores AD group user membership<br>
Third, doing CSV import of users -> this reimports all users data to midPoint and provisions the changes to AD/Exchange<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Aivo Kuhlberg<br>

<p>Hello Aivo,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>midPoint should be able to resolve such situations; although maybe not in one iteration (of CSV import). It might be possible that a sequence of operations, like:</p>
<p>- import from CSV</p>
<p>- AD reconciliation or user/role recomputation</p>
<p>is necessary to completely recover from such situations.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>If there's a sequence of these operation that results in a wrong midPoint state (i.e. state that requires manual intervention), it is a bug.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>From your mail I'm not sure if manual intervention is really necessary, or if a sequence of import + reconciliation operations would solve the problem.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>If the former, I would suggest inspecting your synchronization settings (in particular, correlation search filter, including matching rules).</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>(My personal experience with midPoint failing to recover from similar strange situations is just like that; after correcting the correlation rules midPoint was able to recover from those, although not within one import operation.)</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Hope this helps.<br>
</p>
<p>Pavol</p>

<p>Hi,<br>
</p>
<p>I have question about one syncing situation. I import users from CSV-file and use Exchange connector to sync both AD/Exchange user accounts and groups (as roles). I am testing following situation:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>I create a new group "testgroup" in AD </li><li>I run reconciliation of AD groups and I see that new midPoint role "testgroup" is created from AD group.
</li><li>Now I assign this newly created role to midPoint user "testuser". I see that the same AD user account is now group member of testgroup in AD.
</li><li>Now I delete in AD group testgroup. This should be OK as midPoint is able to restore deleted AD group and its members.
</li><li>After that I do import of users from CSV file. I understand this is unusual situation and I probably should have done before that reconciliation of AD groups and users but I just wanted to see what happens. What happens is that after CSV file import AD
group is restored in AD but AD user is not member of this group. Another thing what happens is that I see following error:
</li></ol>

When I look at the shadow information of testgroup and testuser then I see that they have now following attributes:
<br>
For testgroup:<br>
<span style="color:rgb(0,111,201); font-family:Consolas,monospace; font-size:11pt"><dead>true</dead></span><br style="color:rgb(0,111,201); font-family:Consolas,monospace; font-size:11pt">
<span style="color:rgb(0,111,201); font-family:Consolas,monospace; font-size:11pt"><synchronizationSituation>deleted</synchronizationSituation></span><br>
<br>
and for testuser:<br>
<span style="color:rgb(0,111,201); font-family:Consolas,monospace; font-size:11pt"><dead>true</dead></span><br style="color:rgb(0,111,201); font-family:Consolas,monospace; font-size:11pt">
<span style="color:rgb(0,111,201); font-family:Consolas,monospace; font-size:11pt"><synchronizationSituation>linked</synchronizationSituation></span><br>
<br>
I have to fix this situation by deleting manually testgroup and testuser shadows and do reconciliation of AD groups and users.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Has anybody tested that situation and should midPoint 3.3.1 be able to resolve that situation automatically or is it too complex situation and I just have to avoid it by doing AD groups and users reconciliation every time before importing users fom CSV file?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
