Extended Directory Catalog document
A directory catalog is an optional directory database that aggregates information from multiple Domino Directories. There are two types of directory catalogs: Extended Directory Catalogs and condensed Directory Catalogs. To configure an Extended Directory Catalog you create an Extended Directory Catalog document in a database created from the PUBNAMES.NTF template. An Extended Directory Catalog is larger than a condensed Directory Catalog but is the recommended directory catalog for server use because it allows faster and more flexibile directory lookups.

For more information on creating an Extended Directory Catalog document, see the topic Setting up an Extended Directory Catalog. For more information on creating a Directory Catalog Configuration document to configure a condensed Directory Catalog, see the topic Setting Up a Condensed Directory Catalog.

Note The condensed Directory Catalog is also referred to as a mobile Directory Catalog.
