Ran into an issue where the FIM Sync service was hung up pretty badly. Eventually, I was able to fix it, and fixed the performance counters along the way (although I'm not entirely sure the two had a direct correlation).
- At 8AM, Full sync had been
running since 3:49AM
- miiserver.exe was
unresponsive
- Tried to stop run profile
--> nothing
- Tried to stop service
--> nothing
- Had to kill the process
- Afterwards, service randomly
crashed
- Ran Storechk.exe --> no issues
- Manually checked for broken
CS-MV links --> no issues
- Resolution
- Deleted run history
- Rebuilt indexes on FIMSynchronizationService
- Reinstalled Performance counters
Reinstall performance counters
The server encountered an unexpected error creating performance counters for management agent "Foobar". Performance counters will not be available for this management agent.
Tried to reinstall performance counters --> no luck
C:\WINDOWS\system32>lodctr.exe
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Forefront Identity
Manager\2010\Synchronization Service\Bin\mmsperf.ini"
Counters
for FIMSynchronizationService are already installed
-
Queried FIM Sync performance counters, and noticed that they were disabled.
