More Information

This article offers an overview of the information that may be collected by the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Claims and IFD Collector.

Notes:

·          This collector is run on the server hosting the Active Directory Federation Service 2.0 service

·          This collector creates two report files.  Both files are prefaced with the ComputerName on which the Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool is run. 

·          In the event that the ADFS service and CRM Server are on separate machines, the user will be prompted to enter the hostname of the CRM Server.  This feature does not support connections to CRM servers in different domains.

Additional Information

This collector has a notifications area at the top of the diagnostic report detailing items that may be important to make note of.  These are items that aren’t at the root cause of an issue but are worth noting as they may affect the performance or usability of Microsoft Dynamics CRM.  For this reason, they are called out at the top of the report to give them visibility. 

1.     Virtualization Check – This is notification that CRM is being run with a virtual server and may experience performance issues.

2.     IsDisableLoopbackCheckEnabled – Warnings that this key from the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa registry hive is or is not set.  This key does impact the performance of the Microsoft Dynamics CRM server.

3.     IsBackConnectionHostNames – Similar warning to the IsDisableLoopbackCheckEnabled registry key check.  This can have performance implications as well.

4.     CustomPluginPresenceCheck – Just notifies the customer or engineer to the presence of custom CRM Plugins in the deployment.

5.     Power Plan Settings Notification – Having the CRM server’s power plan settings set to something other than High Performance may have performance implications to Microsoft CRM.  This displays what the power plan is set to.
