4.1.6 Creating an Auxiliary Class

An auxiliary class is a set of properties (attributes) added to particular eDirectory object instances
rather than to an entire class of objects. For example, an e-mail application could extend the schema
of your eDirectory tree to include an E-Mail Properties auxiliary class and then extend individual
objects with those properties as needed.
With Schema Manager, you can define your own auxiliary classes. You can then extend individual
objects with the properties defined in your auxiliary classes.
To create an auxiliary class:
1 In Novell iManager, click the Roles and Tasks button
2 Click Schema > Create Class.
3 Specify a class name and (optional) ASN1 ID, then click Next.
4 Select Auxiliary Class when setting the class flags, then click Next.
5 Follow the instructions in the Create Class Wizard to define the new auxiliary class.
