Icon Lithnet AutoSync for Microsoft Identity Manager

The Lithnet FIM/MIM AutoSync Service is a windows service that runs along side of the FIM/MIM Synchronization service, and automatically executes management agent run profiles.

Product Overview

What it does

AutoSync has a unique way of managing the synchronization engine's run profiles which differs from other tools where you define an execution order for the various import, export, and synchronization profiles. AutoSync automatically performs exports and delta synchronizations when changes are detected in the sync engine, and only import operations need to be 'defined'.

How it works

Whenever an import is performed, AutoSync will check for staged changes in the MA, if there are changes staged, it will automatically perform a delta synchronization on that management agent. If the synchronization results in outbound changes (exports), an export job is kicked off on each management agent. A confirming import will be performed after the export, and once again, if there are changes staged from the import, a delta synchronization will be performed. AutoSync will continue the cycle until all changes have been processed.

AutoSync provides triggers to determine when to run import operations, and other run profiles outside of the standard delta import, delta sync, export, confirming import cycle.
