stored in a directory. For each object class, the schema defines which
attributes an instance of the class must have, which additional attributes it
can have, and which other object classes can be its parent object class.
Global Catelog: A directory database that applications and clients can
query to locate any object in a forest. The global catalog is hosted on one
or more domain controllers in the forest. It contains a partial replica of
every domain directory partition in the forest. These partial replicas
include replicas of every object in the forest, as follows: the attributes
most frequently used in search operations and the attributes required to
locate a full replica of the object.
In Microsoft Provisioning System, the Exchange server maintains a list of
global catalogs, and it maintains a load balance across global catalogs.
