Extended attribute types are stored in the object named xattrschema under the security
junction point (usually /.:/sec) in the CDS namespace. Access to xattrschema and the
attribute type definitions it contains is controlled by an ACL on the xattrschema object.
The xattrschema object is propagated from the master security server to replicas, like
other registry data.
32.2 Creating and Maintaining Attribute Types
Use the dcecp xattrschema command to create and modify attribute types. When you
use this command, you must supply the attribute type’s fully qualified name (for
example, /.:/sec/xattrschema/name) as an argument.
32.2.1 Creating Attribute Types
Use the dcecp xattrschema create command to create attribute types. When you use
this command you can supply the attribute options summarized in Table 32-1. Note that
the options described in this table can also be supplied without the dashes in attribute
lists.
