The Managed Metadata service allows you to utilize managed metadata and provides you with the ability to share content types across sites.<\/p>\n 1. To configure the Secure Store Service, go to:<\/p>\n CA -> Application Management -> Manage service applications<\/strong>.<\/p>\n 2. Click New<\/strong> and select “Managed Metadata Service<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n 3. Enter the corresponding information for each field (Name, Database Server, Database Name, Application Pool Identity, etc.), then click the “Create<\/strong>” button.<\/p>\n <\/a> <\/a>4. Lastly, enter CA<\/strong> > System Settings<\/strong> > Manage services on server<\/strong> and start the Managed Metadata Web Service.<\/p>\n <\/a>5. So, the first step is completed. The next step is to configure User Profile Services on server.<\/p>\n User Profile Services is the service that all UPS requests pass through.<\/p>\n 1. To start with the second step, enter:<\/p>\n CA -> System Settings -> Manage services on server<\/strong>.<\/p>\n 2. Scroll down and find “User Profile Service<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n 3. Make sure the status of the service is displayed as “Started<\/strong>.” If it is stopped, then start it.<\/p>\n 4. Starting the service will activate the service, which is a requirement prior to creating the service application.<\/p>\n 5. To create and configure the User Profile service application, re-enter:<\/p>\n CA -> Application Management -> Manage service applications<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/a>6. By default, every web application takes the default service application, but for our purpose we need to create a new User Profile service application.<\/p>\n 7. On the ribbon, click on the Arrow below “New<\/strong>” and select “User Profile Service Application<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n <\/a>8. Enter an appropriate application name.<\/p>\n 9. In the “Application Pool<\/strong>” area, we can create a new application pool or choose an existing one.<\/p>\n 10. For our purposes, we will create a new application and configure it with an appropriate security account.<\/p>\n 11. We need to make sure the service account has sufficient rights on all data sources as well as network sources.<\/p>\n 12. After filling in all details, click the “Create<\/strong>” button<\/p>\n <\/a>13. Specify the Profile Database, the Synchronization Database, the Social Tagging Database, and the corresponding Profile Synchronization Instance Server.<\/p>\n 14. Then click the “Create<\/strong>” button.<\/p>\n 1. A User Profile service application will be created, which is “User Profile Service Application_test<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n 2. We can see the status of above service is Started.<\/p>\n <\/a>3. Goto CA -> System Settings -> Manage services on server<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/a>4. Scroll down and find “User Profile Synchronization Service<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n 5. Make sure the status of the service is displayed as “Started<\/strong>.” If it is stopped, then start it.<\/p>\n 6. Starting the service will activate the service, which is a requirement prior to creating the service application.<\/p>\n <\/a>7. Select “User Profile Service Application_test<\/strong>” as the User Profile Application and input the valid password of account, then click the “OK<\/strong>” button.<\/p>\n <\/a>8. Before configuring the User Profile Service, we have to make sure the Forefront Identity Manager Services (FIM) are correctly configured and started in the Local System Services.<\/p>\n 1. Configure the User Profile Connection by going to:<\/p>\n CA -> Application Management -> Manage service applications<\/strong>.<\/p>\n 2. Select “User Profile Service Application_test<\/strong>” user profile and click “Manage<\/strong>” on the ribbon menu.<\/p>\n 3. There will be multiple sections related to User Profile.<\/p>\n 4. For our purposes, click on “Configure Synchronization Connections<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n 5. Click “Create New Connection<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n <\/a>6. Enter valid values for the various fields Connection Name<\/strong>, Type<\/strong>, Authentication Provider Type<\/strong>, Account Name and Password<\/strong>.<\/p>\n 7. Set the port with default value 389<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/a>8. Click on “Populate Containers<\/strong>” and select several OU in Active Directory (the selected containers will be treated as synchronized object), then click the “OK<\/strong>” button.<\/p>\n <\/a>9. The Synchronization connection has been successfully created.<\/p>\n <\/a>10. We can now easily setup connection filters against our Active Directory User Profile connection by clicking on the connection that was just created and selecting “Edit Connection Filters<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n 11. Specify and add any User or Group exclusions and then click OK.<\/p>\n <\/a>12. Complete above steps, we will configure a Synchronization Timer Job.<\/p>\n 1. Enter CA -> Application Management<\/strong> -><\/strong> Manage service applications.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong>2. Select “User Profile Service Application_test<\/strong>” user profile and click “Manage<\/strong>” on the ribbon menu.<\/p>\n <\/a>3. Click “Configure Synchronization Timer Job<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n <\/a>4. Enable the timer job and then start profile synchronization.<\/p>\n <\/a>5. Enter CA -> Monitoring -> Check job status <\/strong>to see the profile synchronization status.<\/p>\n 1. Finally, enter into Manage User Profiles and search for users – user information does not display by default, so you need to search them.<\/p>\nI. Managing Metadata Service<\/h2>\n
