Microsoft 365 Administrator Expert MS-102 Practice Question
You are preparing to deploy Microsoft Entra Connect Sync for about 80,000 on-premises Active Directory objects and you run the IdFix tool. The report shows Blank, Duplicate, Format, and MailMatch error types. You want to postpone fixing any issues that will not immediately disrupt the first synchronization, but you also want to avoid having critical attributes quarantined in Microsoft Entra ID after the sync finishes. Which IdFix error type should you prioritize and resolve before you start the initial synchronization because the conflicting attribute will be quarantined if it remains?
Duplicate errors appear when two or more directory objects share a value that must be unique in Microsoft Entra ID-for example, the same userPrincipalName, mail, or proxyAddresses entry. During synchronization, Microsoft Entra ID places the conflicting attribute value in quarantine, leaving the object without that value. Because the missing attribute can prevent users from signing in or receiving mail, duplicates should be remediated before the first sync. Blank, Format, and MailMatch errors usually allow the object and its attributes to synchronize, so they can be addressed later (though Microsoft still recommends fixing them as soon as possible).
