External resource not associated to entry after pull
Greetings.
I have noticed that all my users pulled from my directory service is in
syncope missing the external resource. If manually adding it to a user,
the connection is found (status Enabled) and everything is happy clappy.
What controls this relation to the external resource ? I have checked
and double checked against a vanilla standalone installation, and fail
to find any differences.
One more thing, not sure if related or not. There are in a standalone
installation quite a few mystical attributes such as mderived_dx,
mderived_sx do these have any internal purpose and should not be removed
from say user and group AnyTypeClasses ?
Fail to find any info about those attributes in the documentation.
TIA
Brgds,
Jonas

When pulling users from an external resource, you need to assign such
external resource to that users if you want to propagate back any change
from Syncope. You can automate this task as explained in
https://syncope.apache.org/docs/reference-guide.html#pull-templates

As reported in
https://syncope.apache.org/docs/getting-started.html#standalone
the standalone distribution is *only meant for evaluation*, *not for
production*: it is full of sample data and resources, even test LDAP and
DBMS servers.
If you are planning for production use, please choose one of the other
available distributions: GUI installer, Debian packages or (best if you
plan any customization) Maven project from archetype.
Regards.
