HP-UX Directory Server 8.1 schema reference

3 Directory Server object class reference
This chapter contains an alphabetical list of the object classes accepted by the default schema. It
gives a definition of each object class and lists its required and allowed attributes. The object
classes listed in this chapter are available to support entry information in the HP-UX Directory
Server (Directory Server). Object classes that are used by the Directory Server for internal
operations are not documented in this Schema Guide; instead, refer to the HP-UX Directory Server
configuration, command, and file reference. Replication and synchronization object classes are listed
in Chapter 4 “Operational attributes, special attributes, and special object classes”
The required attributes listed for an object class must be present in the entry when that object
class is added to the directory's ldif file. If an object class has a superior object class, both of
these object classes with all required attributes must be present in the entry. If required attributes
are not listed in the ldif file, than the server will not restart.
NOTE:
The LDAP RFCs and X.500 standards allow for an object class to have more than one superior
object class. This behavior is not currently supported by Directory Server.
