Extending the schema using the Schema database

You can use the Domino® LDAP Schema database to extend the schema by adding attributes, object classes, and syntaxes to the schema.

When you use the Schema database to create a new schema element, you first create a draft document for the element. You approve the draft document when you are ready, and the document then moves from the Draft Documents view to the Pending Documents view, where it awaits processing by the Schema daemon on the administration server for the Domino Directory. The Schema daemon on the administration server incorporate the changes into the schema and publishes them in the Schema database. The Schema database then replicates to subordinate servers in the domain that run the LDAP service.

To use the Schema database to extend the schema, you must use one of the following clients:
