Planning directory services
IBM® Domino® provides a range of directory service features.
Using a central directory architecture in a Domino® domain
A central directory architecture is an optional directory architecture you can implement in an IBM® Domino® domain. This architecture differs from the traditional distributed directory architecture in which every server in a domain has a full replica of the primary Domino Directory.
Managing Domino® Directories in a central directory architecture
When there is a combination of Configuration Directories and primary IBM® Domino® Directories in a domain, you can manage the central directory architecture by changing directory type and by performing tasks to manage which directories serve as remote primary directories.
Preventing the use of a Domino® Directory replica as a remote primary
You can prevent servers with configuration directories from using a specific replica of the IBM® Domino® Directory as a remote primary.

Preventing the use of a Domino Directory replica as a remote primary

You can prevent servers with configuration directories from using a specific replica of the IBM® Domino® Directory as a remote primary.

About this task

You can prevent a replica from being used only when servers with configuration directories use the default logic, and not directory assistance, to locate a remote primary Domino Directory. You might prevent the use of a specific replica to avoid the use of a server that has limited capacity.

Procedure

From the Domino Administrator, select the server that stores the primary Domino Directory.
Select the Configuration tab, and select Server > Current Server Document.
Click Edit Server.
On the Basics tab, in the Directory Information section for the directory type, deselect Allow this directory to be used as a remote primary directory for other servers.
Click Save & Close.
