Managing Domino Directories in a central directory architecture
When there is a combination of Configuration Directories and primary HCL Domino® Directories in a domain, you can manage the central directory architecture by changing directory type and by performing tasks to manage which directories serve as remote primary directories.

Changing the directory type of a Domino Directory

The first server set up in a domain is always set up with a primary HCL Domino Directory. When you set up an additional server in the domain, you choose whether to set up the replica of the Domino Directory on the server as a Configuration Directory or as a primary Domino Directory. The default selection is a primary Domino Directory.

Controlling how a server finds a remote primary Domino Directory
The HCL Domino server uses default settings or directory assistance to locate a remote primary Domino Directory.

Preventing the use of a Domino Directory replica as a remote primary
You can prevent servers with configuration directories from using a specific replica of the HCL Domino Directory as a remote primary.

Showing the Domino Directory replicas that can function as remote primaries
The Directory Servers view in the HCL Domino Directory lists the primary Domino Directories in the domain that have the option Allow this directory to be used as a remote primary directory for other servers enabled on the Basics tab of their server documents.
