MIIS Question:

Every connected data source has a corresponding management agent. Each management agent acts to control the flow of information between its connected data source and MIIS. If you modify synchronized data in either the connected data source or within MIIS, the management agent will keep MIIS 2003 and the connected data sources consistent. Since there is a management agent for each supported connected data source type, the types of management agents are the same as the types of connected data sources supported by MIIS 2003. If you need to connect a data source, MIIS also provides a generic management agent that can be configured to connect to any system that provides programmatic access to its data, called the extensible connectivity management agent.
