This figure shows a partitioned directory. Server A holds a tree with dc=com at the root, dc=acme as the root of a subtree that includes c=us
, c=uk
, and c=au
. Server B likewise holds a tree with dc=com at the root, dc=acme
as the root of a subtree that includes c=us
, c=uk
, and c=au
. However, on Server B, only c=au
is a replicated naming context. Both c=us
and c=uk
are knowledge references pointing back to those naming contexts on Server A.
