In This Artical I will explain how to set Up and Configure My Sites In SharePoint 2010.
For Configuring My Site, I need to Pull Users from Active Directory by using User Profile Service Application.
So Before Creating and Configuring User Profile Service Application, Let’s Understand My SharePoint Environment.
In Active Directory I have one organizational Unit named as “SharePoint” where users are created.
As Shown in Red mark
a) SharePoint_Admin User Is an Administrator of SharePoint Server 2010.
b) SharePoint _Farm User Is a SharePoint Farm Administrator.
c) SharePoint_Service Is a Service Account to handle various Service Applications in SharePoint (such as Search Service Application)
Before Creating User Profile Service Application, ensure.
a) SharePoint_Admin and SharePoint _Farm User are in local administrator group on computer NDJ(SharePoint Server 2010)
b) Go to Administrative Tools and Select Services and under services ensure that Startup Type of “Forefront Identity Manager Service” and “Forefront Identity Manager Synchronization Service” is automatic (It Should not be disabled). Note: Do not start manually. It will start automatically.
c) Go to Administrative tools and select IIS Manager and under Application Pools ensures that “SharePoint Web Services Root “has started. If not, start it.
So let’s create User Profile Service Application.
1) Open SharePoint 2010 Central Administration
2) On Quick Launch, Click on Application Management and then click “Manage Service Applications” Under Service Applications Section.
3) On Manage Service Application Page click on “New” and select User Profile Service Application.
4) On Create New User Profile Service Application window type
a) Name : User Profile Service Application1
b) Application Pool Name : UserProfileServicePool
c) Configurable : POINT\Sharepoint_Farm User
After typing these values click on “Create” Button at down.
Service Application will create. After Creating Service Application, we will start necessary services for service application
5) On Quick Launch menu of central Administration site click on “System Settings” then click on “Manage Services on Server” Under servers Section.
6) On Services on Server window find out
a) User Profile Service and click on start.
b) User Profile Synchronization Services and click start.
As soon we click on start we will have User Profile Synchronization Service Window.
On that window ensure that
a) “Select the User Profile Application” Is “User Profile Service Application1”
b) “Service Account” Is “POINT\SharePoint_Farm” and type Password, click on ok.
c) Now a timer job called “ProfileSynchronizationSetupJob” is created. When that job gets completed, a service “User Profile Synchronization Services” will also get started.
7) To see timer job, on Quick Launch of central Administration site , click on Monitoring and then click on check job status under timer jobs section.
Under Running Jobs We Must have “ProfileSynchronizationSetupJob”.
NOTE: SharePoint server May take some Minute (up to 5) to start that job and get appear in Running Job List.

Now we have created User Profile Service Application, now it’s time to pull our active directory users from AD/DNS server.
NOTE: To do User Profile Synchronization with Active Directory, User SharePoint_Farm (who is Managing User Profile Service Application1) must have Permission to do synchronization. To assign permission use following snapshot
NOTE: We are working from SharePoint Server Machine Named as NDJ.
2) Login as Domain Administrator
