6 Extending the Novell eDirectory
Schema
The schema of your Novell
®
eDirectory
TM
tree defines the classes of objects
that the tree can contain, such as users, groups, and printers. It specifies the
properties (attributes) that comprise each object type, including those that are
required when creating the object and those that are optional. For details, see
Novell eDirectory Administration Guide > Object Classes and Properties and
Schema.
To extend the schema of your eDirectory tree, you need the Supervisor right
to the entire tree. To view the current schema, click anywhere in the tree, then
click Tools > Schema Manager. A list of the available classes and properties
appears, as shown below. Double-click a class or property to see information
about it.
