Task #2788

Updated by Alena Peterová about 3 years ago

Tested on 10.8.2 and 11.0-RC2 

 * A system uses provisioning context with "Add an object from the target system". E.g. AD created by the MS AD wizard 
 !mapping_context.png! 
 * The system is unavailable, e.g. broken connection, wrong address, ... 
 * Add some system role to a user, or update some of their attributes 
 * The error is in the failed entity event, instead of a failed operation in the provisioning queue 
 * => the role is not assigned at all 
 * => current retry mechanism doesn't handle the situation, so even if the system is available again after several minutes, the operation isn't retried

 I'm not sure if this is defect/task/feature, but it's very unfortunate that provisioning context can break breaks otherwise robust retry mechanism in IdM. And because it will be used by default for AD now, it can easily happen often. now. We definitely didn't think about realize this when we implemented the scripts, where we load connector objects from the system.
