A single eDirectory container must be designated as the parent container in which Action Objects can be created. By applying appropriate access controls, an administrator can control who is allowed to create Action Objects in the specified container. The NSM Engine only processes Action Objects that reside in the designated container or any of its subcontainers.
A local replica of the partition containing the Action Object container is recommended for the server hosting the NSM Engine if large quantities of Action Objects will be created and processed.
