Partitioning the driver set

Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Posted: 2 Aug 2001

Q:
When is it smart to partition the driver set?

A:
There are really only a few reasons why you would want to have a driver set be a partition root. Here they are:

  • You do not want a replica of the partition that the driver set would otherwise be in because you don't want to synchronize those objects.
  • You want to have only filtered replicas on the DirXML server. DirXML requires that the driver set be in a full read-write replica on the DirXML server.
  • You want to move the driver set.

Important: You should always have multiple copies of any partitioned driver set object.
