Overview - Managing Intercell Naming
To find names outside of the local cell, CDS clerks must have a way to locate directory servers in other cells. The Global Directory Agent (GDA) enables intercell communications by serving as a connection to other cells through the global naming environment. This topic describes how the GDA works and how to manage it. The topic also describes how to define the local cell in either of the global naming environments (GDS or DNS), which is a step that is necessary to make the local cell accessible to other cells.
