An "Excluded (00)" Error May Be Logged in the Management Agent Log Files (287708)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Metadirectory Services 2.1
  • Microsoft Metadirectory Services 2.2

This article was previously published under Q287708

SYMPTOMS

Microsoft Metadirectory Services (MMS) excludes the user's request and the following error is logged in the Zscript.log file (when it is run at a higher logging level):
5528-EXCLUDED[00]: CN=Tom Eberl,cn=Recipients,ou=accounting,ou=Users,dc=microsoft,dc=com

CAUSE

This behavior can occur because of one of the following reasons:
  • Any exclusion not identified with a number defaults to 00. -or-

  • If the parent node is a disconnector or it is not built correctly, the child is excluded.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, examine your Exclusion rules or ensure that the parent node is not a disconnector.

Typically, Exclusion rules are defined with a message number. Examine your Exclusion rules for a rule that is not defined.

259059 Management Agent Exclusions in Metadirectory Services

If the error is not caused by an Exclusion rule, verify that the parent node is not a disconnector.

If the parent node is not a disconnector, view all attributes on the parent connector space object and ensure that the parent node has the appropriate object class defined. In the Exchange Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Management Agent (MA), if the recipient's container had not been properly constructed, the object class may be:

objectClass
[1]Person
[2]zcAliasThing
[3]Top 
				

The correct object class, however, for the recipient's container is:
objectClass
[1]zcLdapContainer
[2]zcAliasThing
[3]Top
				

MORE INFORMATION

To view all of the attributes of an object:
  1. Right-click the object.
  2. On the Context menu, click View.
  3. On the View menu, click All Attributes. An HTML-based page should be displayed with all of the attributes associated with that object.
