Description: Provides information about each directory a server last used for name resolution. The output displays the following columns of information.

DomainName The DomainName columns displays the name of the domain in which a directory resides. If a directory is configured in the directory assistance database, the "Domain Name" field in the Directory Assistance document for the directory determines the directory's domain name.

DirectoryType

The DirectoryType column shows the type of directory. A directory can be one of these types:

• Primary -- Primary IBM® Lotus® Domino™ Directory stored locally
• Configuration -- Configuration Directory stored locally
• Remote Primary -- Primary Domino Directory stored remotely used by a server with a Configuration Directory
• Secondary -- Extended Directory Catalog, secondary Domino Directory, or remote LDAP directory configured in the directory assistance database.

ClientProtocol

The ClientProtocol column displays the client protocol, Notes and/or LDAP, for which the directory is enabled. For a directory configured in a directory assistance database, the value of the "Make this domain available to" field in the Directory Assistance document for the directory determines what appears in this column.

This column always shows "Notes" for a Configuration Directory. Usually a Primary or Remote Primary directory show "Notes & LDAP" as the client protocols. An exception is if the primary directory is configured through directory assistance and is disabled for LDAP clients; in this case only "Notes" shows as the enabled client protocol.

Replica/LDAP Server

The Replica/LDAP Server column shows:

• The file name of a local Domino Directory
• Server path and file name of a Domino Directory accessed over the network
• The host name of a remote LDAP directory server and the port used

Following are examples of the output that appears on the server console when you issue the Show Xdir command.

Example 1

This example shows output on a server that uses a local primary Domino Directory, two secondary Domino Directories (one of which is a local Extended Directory Catalog), and one remote LDAP directory.

Example 2

This example shows output on a server that uses a Configuration Directory, a remote primary Domino Directory, and an Extended Directory Catalog accessed over the network.
