Set Class Flags

Set class flags to control how this class is used. There are a number of class flags, but only those that are user defined are shown. (Other flags are set by eDirectoryTM automatically.)

Effective Class
Set this flag if you want to create an effective class, which can be used to create objects.

Non-Effective Class
Used as a place holder for a group of attributes. A non-effective class cannot be used to create objects but can be specified as a class from which other classes can inherit attributes. For example, the Person class is a non-effective class that holds attributes inherited by the User class.

Auxiliary Class
A collection of attributes that can be associated only with individual objects, not with entire classes.

Container Class
Set this flag if you want to make this a container class. When it is used to create objects, those objects will become container objects (such as OU). Do not set this flag for a leaf object class.
