8.Click the Add Attribute button, and add the attributes listed in the CoS. The values used here will be used throughout the directory in the targeted entries.

9.Set the cospriority. There may be more than one CoS that applies to a given attribute in an entry; the cospriority attribute ranks the importance of that particular CoS. The higher cospriority will take precedence in a conflict. The highest priority is 0.

Templates that contain no cosPriority attribute are considered the lowest priority. In the case where two or more templates are considered to supply an attribute value and they have the same (or no) priority, a value is chosen arbitrarily. The behavior for negative cosPriority values is not defined in Directory Server; do not enter negative values. Also, the cosPriority attribute is not supported by indirect CoS.

10.Hit save.

The CoS will be visible in the left navigation pane once there are entries beneath it. For classic CoS, there can be multiple entries, according to the different potential values of the attribute specifier.
