The MIMWAL is a powerful solution accelerator for MIM / FIM that provides foundational activities which can be combined to create complex workflows to implement business processes within a MIM / FIM solution simply by configuration instead of coding for days and months
Yes, as long as the FIM 2010 R2 instance is at release level 4.1.3496 or higher.
WAL allows you to build complex FIM / MIM workflows quickly and consistently with little or no development work. A standardise way of building workflows not only speeds up development but also substantially decreases support / maintenance cost.
MIMWAL is essentially open sourcing of FIMWAL project that is being used in the hundreds of MCS engagements worldwide since 2011. The initial release of FIMWAL got extensive update as FIMWAL "2" in Jun 2014 and the baseline check-in for MIMWAL is essentially the FIMWAL "2" version 2.15.1026.0.
MIMWAL is published under the MIT License. See the MIMWAL project's License.txt for more information.
Developer support is primarily via MIMWAL Project TechNet forum community
The concept and early development for the WAL began in 2010, and was developed and deployed in both a FIMWAL1 (2011) and FIMWAL2 (2013) version before the project was moved to GitHub in 2016, and renamed to MIMWAL.
Documentation, scenarios, and examples can be found on the MIMWAL Wiki
MIMWAL can be used with Microsoft Identity Manager (MIM) 2016 - 4.3.1935 and above.
MIMWAL can be used with Forefront Identity Manager (FIM) 2010 R2 - 4.1.3496 and above.
MIMWAL is backward compatible with FIMWAL "2". It retains the same assembly names and build and deployment procedures. The main visual changes post deployment are AIC's are prefixed with "WAL: " and the EventLog is called now called WAL. (Note: The deployment of MIMWAL will delete the FIMWAL event log and create a new WAL event log.) See Deployment Wiki for more details.
FIMWAL1 uses a completely different namespace than MIMWAL, so there is no direct upgrade of workflows based on MIMWAL1 activities.
Yes, but you should plan to replace existing workflows with MIMWAL versions to utilize MIMWAL benefits.
No, since when you deploy the MIMWAL, your existing workflow definitions which contain FIMWAL2 activities will be updated to use the MIMWAL verions.
