An Organization container object is created when you first install eDirectory on a server in your network. As the top-most container under Tree, it usually holds Organizational Unit objects and leaf objects.
Once you are in an eDirectory tree, you can organize it by creating various types of containers and placing objects inside them. Objects in a container are automatically security equivalent to the container, so make sure you manage the container's rights accordingly.
To modify the rights of a container object you added in Novell iManager, use ConsoleOne. See Administering Rights in ConsoleOne User Guide for more information.
Below are procedures to create common container types. For information on creating container types for specific applications, see the documentation for those applications. For general eDirectory tree design considerations, see Designing Your Novell eDirectory Network in Novell eDirectory Administration Guide.
An Organization container object is created when you first install eDirectory on a server in your network. As the top-most container under Tree, it usually holds Organizational Unit objects and leaf objects.
Normally, the Organization object represents your company, although you can create additional Organization objects under Tree. This is typically done for networks with distinct geographical districts or for companies with separate eDirectory trees that have merged.

You can create Organizational Unit (OU) container objects to subdivide your eDirectory tree. Organizational Units can be created under an Organization, Country, or another Organizational Unit object.
Often, the Organizational Unit object represents a department, which holds a set of objects that commonly need access to each other. A typical example is a set of User objects, along with the printers, volumes, and applications that those Users need.
At the highest level of Organizational Unit objects, each Organizational Unit can represent each site (separated by WAN links) in the network.
