Attribute Store Load Failure

Microsoft.ActiveDirectoryFederationServices2012R2.TokenIssuanceAttributeStoreLoadFailureMonitor (UnitMonitor)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This monitor indicates that token issuance failed because the Federation Service could not load the attribute store.

If the same problem does not occur again within 15 minutes, the health state of this monitor will change back to a Green state. A corresponding alert is generated by the alert rule, and it must be resolved manually.

Causes

The Federation Service is configured to use a custom attribute store that cannot be located.

Resolutions

If you are using a custom attribute store, verify that the custom attribute store is configured correctly by using the AD FS snap-in. Also, verify that the custom attribute store assembly can be accessed.
