Some new #MIM2016 CTP stuff on the Connect site

Check out the MIM 2016 connect site: https://connect.microsoft.com/site433.

“The Identity and Access Management Connect site is used for:

– Microsoft Identity Manager 2016 SP1 Preview (MIM 2016 SP1)
– FIM Sync Connectors
– Azure Active Directory Sync Services”

If you would like to try out this preview in a lab environment, it is available for download on Connect at  https://connect.microsoft.com/site433/Downloads

Check : https://connect.microsoft.com/site433/Downloads/DownloadDetails.aspx?DownloadID=57668

If you do not see this available for download, ensure that “Active Directory Identity and Access Management CTP” is in your Connect programs list, or add this connect program from the directory https://connect.microsoft.com/directory/ .  You can provide feedback directly by email to aadmimfeedback@microsoft.com or in Connect site feedback.

It’s important to carefully check the description of the download: “These CTPs are intended solely for integration testing and to help us gather community feedback on specific changes or scenarios. As such these previews are for evaluation use only, and are not licensed, supported or intended for production use.  If you need updates for a production deployment of MIM, please contact your Microsoft support representative to ensure you have the latest hotfix for MIM 2016.”

Note-to-self: a new build of the #MIM2016 CTP on Microsoft Connect (Milestone CTP4, 4.3.1935.0)

Last update, in april, the FIM/MIM product group posted MIM beta-build  4.3.1790.0.
Yesterday the MIM PG has posted new build install files on Connect. (4.3.1935.0).

You’ll notice this set of data only has the install files and hasn’t got the VMs anymore…

Gift from the PG for the #MSIM2015 fans: download VMs

Source: https://connect.microsoft.com/site433/Downloads

Just a few days ago the FIM/MIM product group released some interesting stuff on the Connect platform: the MIM 2015 PAM Preview – Step up experience based on VMs.

I certainly advise to use the Microsoft File Transfer Manager (Download manager), as you’ll need to pull around 16GB of data down your internet link.

MIM 2015 CTP published on connect. #FIM2010 #MSIM2015

Microsoft has published the CTP of Microsoft Identity Manager 2015, aka FIM vNext.
Some people reported that they could not see the item in their Connect Dashboard, while they had already registered for other FIM beta’s.

The CTP is published on the same Connect site as the FIM beta’s were published before: https://connect.microsoft.com/site433/Downloads

But you’ll need to look for the Active Directory Identity and Access Management CTP program under the Identity and Access Management product.

If you don’t see the item in your on your Connect Dashboard, try this link: Active Directory Identity and Access Management CTP (https://connect.microsoft.com/site433/MIM%202015%20CTP).
Keep in mind you need to register to Connect first.
