Remarks
When an attribute of a metaverse object is deleted, the attribute recall feature of Microsoft Identity Integration Server 2003 also deletes the corresponding attribute in the connecter object. During a metaverse synchronization run, the rules extension throws this exception because the rules extension is trying to set the value of an attribute that does not exist in the metaverse.
If you want the connector space attribute to remain after the metaverse attribute is deleted, in the Configure Deprovisioning property of the management agent, select Do not recall attributes contributed by objects from this management agent when disconnected. When you select this check box, the connector object attribute is retained in the connector space when the attribute of the metaverse object is deleted.
You can also get the value of the Attrib.IsPresent property to verify that the attribute exists in the metaverse before flowing a new attribute value from the connector space.
For more information about the Configure Deprovisioning property of a management agent, see the Microsoft Identity Integration Server 2003 Help.
