• "Mail and Multi-purpose" (default) to aggregate only these two types of groups from all of the directories listed in the "Directories to include" field.
• "Mail Only" to aggregate only "Mail only" groups from all of the directories listed in the "Directories to include" field.
• "All" to aggregate all types of groups from all the directories listed in the "Directories to include" field.
• "All in first directory only" to aggregate all types of groups, but only those from the first directory listed in the "Directories to include" field.
• "None" to exclude all groups.

If the directory catalog you are configuring is an Extended Directory Catalog servers use to look up groups to authorize users' database access, and these groups in the source IBM® Lotus® Domino™ Directories are defined as "ACL only" groups, choose "All" or "All in first directory only" to ensure the groups are aggregated.

LocalDomainServers and OtherDomainServers groups

The Dircat task doesn't aggregate the LocalDomainServers and OtherDomainServers groups into a directory catalog because the servers listed in these groups can't be used for mail addressing, and because excluding them improves performance of the Dircat task.

All groups aggregated as Multi-purpose groups, by default

By default, all groups aggregated into a directory catalog are assigned the type "Multi-purpose." For example, by default, a "Mail only" group in a Domino Directory becomes a "Multi-purpose" group in the directory catalog. To keep the correct group type definition for groups in a directory catalog, add the GroupType field to the directory catalog configuration.
