The Global Directory 47
For example, Boston (R1) has two branch offices (R1B1 and R1B2)
Chicago (R2) has two branch offices (R2B1 and R2B2). Database
replication is enabled between R1 and R2.
■The global directory on R1 includes users provisioned on R1, R1B1,
R1B2, and R2.
■The global directory on R2 includes users provisioned on R2, R2B1,
R2B2, and R1.
Notice that the branch offices associated with the remote region are not
included. For example, while the global directory for R1 does include
users provisioned on R2, it does not include users provisioned on R2’s
branches, R2B1 and R2B2.
