• Profile database – used to store user profile information.
• Synchronization database – used to store configuration and staging information for synchronizing profile data.
• Social tagging database – used to store social tags and notes created by users.
• User Information Table – Synchronized with User Profile (stores information like user display name for each site collection)

Changes in SharePoint 2013
• Re-Introduction of AD Import• Faster Synchronization for Full Synch• Synchronization with multiple directory services
• Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) 2003 SP2 and above• Sun Java System Directory Server version 5.2• Novell eDirectory version 8.7.3• IBM Tivoli version 5.2
Active Directory Import
• Faster than user Profile Sync.• No bidirectional synchronization• Limited to a single Active Directory forest.• Allows only one farm-wide property mapping.• Fewer properties synced by default than AD Sync
• FirstName, LastName, Department, SPS-JobTitle, Office, PreferredName, SPS-Department, Title, WorkEmail, WorkPhone
Configure AD Import (2013)
Important CUs and SPs
• Oct 2010 CU – fix for Central Admin SSL issue• Dec 2010 CU – breaks Netbios domain support• Feb 2011 CU – fix for Netbios domain support• Service Pack 1 – major improvements to User Profile
Sync, but don’t use it without a later CU• June 2011 CU or August 2011 CU – should be
installed after Service Pack 1 • Feb 2012 CU – improved stored procedures for
maintenance of SyncDB
Prestart Checklist
• Don’t Run the Farm Config Wizard!• If SQL is an Instance or FQDN
• Create a SQL Alias
• Install SP1 and August 2011 Cumulative Update• Verify Account Permissions
• See the Next Slide
• Does AD Netbios Domain Name match FQDN?• Example Acme ≠ Acmeman.dev• Additional Permissions required• $upsa = Get-SPServiceApplication –Id User-Profile-App-GUID
$upsa.NetBIOSDomainNamesEnabled=1 $upsa.Update()
Security Rights for User Profile Sync
• UPS Service Identity (Farm Account)• Must run as Farm Account• Local Admin during Provisioning• Log on Locally • Note: Reboot after changing Farm Account rights
• Synchronization Connection Account • Replicating Directory Changes on the Domain• Netbios name ≠ FQDN name
• Replicating Directory Changes on Configuration Partition
