Select one of the following options:
• Select the 
Look Up Global Catalog Servers with DNS
 option and 
enter the 
Root Domain Name
 to use on a DNS lookup to obtain the 
Active Directory Global Catalog Servers. Global Catalog Server 
Addresses 1-3 are ignored. iDRAC6 attempts to connect to each of the 
addresses (first 4 addresses returned by the DNS lookup) one by one 
until it makes a successful connection. A Global Catalog server is 
required only for Standard Schema in the case that the user accounts 
and the role groups are in different domains.
• Select the 
Specify Global Catalog Server Addresses
 option and enter 
the IP address or the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the 
Global Catalog server(s). DNS lookup is not performed. At least one 
of the three addresses must be configured. iDRAC6 attempts to 
connect to each of the configured addresses one by one until it makes 
a successful connection. Global Catalog server is required only for 
Standard Schema in the case that the user accounts and the role 
groups are in different domains.
  NOTE: The FQDN or IP address that you specify in the Global Catalog Server 
Address field should match the Subject or Subject Alternative Name field of 
your domain controller certificate if you have certificate validation enabled.
NOTE: The Global Catalog server is only required for standard schema in the 
case that the user accounts and the role groups are in different domains. 
And, in this multiple domain case, only the Universal Group can be used.
