Show Xdir
Syntax: Show Xdir

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:


The DirectoryType column also shows the type of domain a directory is within (IBM® Lotus® Notes® or LDAP). If a directory is a remote LDAP directory configured in the directory assistance database, the directory type is "LDAP." Any Domino Directory or Extended Directory Catalog is the directory type "Notes."

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:


Note If a server uses a condensed Directory Catalog, Show Xdir also displays the text "Directory Catalog 'filename" in use," where filename is the file name of the local directory catalog.

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.
