Before JoiningIn this section we'll pause a second to look at where we're at in terms of creating and joining our ConnectorViews into a single MetaView. We'll look at a typical person's entry in the HR ConnectorView and compare it to that person's entries in the PBX and Messaging ConnectorViews. |

Step 1: Locate the sample ConnectorViewsRestart Netscape Console if it isn't already running. Step 2: Look at Chris Ayers data in the HR ConnectorViewLet's look at a typical entry in the HR ConnectorView. Click on the icon representing the HR ConnectorView and then double-click on the icon representing Chris Ayers. Step 3: Look at Chris Ayers data in the PBX ConnectorViewLet's repeat this procedure for one of the other ConnectorViews. Click on the icon representing the PBX ConnectorView and then double-click on the icon representing Chris Ayers. Step 4: Look at Chris Ayers data in the Messaging ConnectorViewRepeat the above procedure for the Messaging ConnectorView. Step 5: Look at advanced propertiesGo back to Chris Ayers' entry in the HR ConnectorView. This time click on the Advanced button. Step 6: Look at the MetaViewOur MetaView shows up in the Directory Server's topology window in Netscape Console as company.com. If you look at that entry you'll see it has a few branches but no leaves - in other words, there aren't any people in this part of the tree yet. Step 7: Look at the Management CenterBring up the Management Center window and let's look at what's happening there. SummaryOur Directory Server has 6 ConnectorViews, each of which is populated with sample data. At this point the MetaView (company.com) is still empty. The Management Center is working, but not yet connected to the Directory Server. |
