Import Notes Resources to Their Own Subcontainer

As an administrator, you can import Notes resources to a separate container (OU) under the one to which the directory synchronization process imports Notes users and groups.

Note   You cannot create a subcontainer under the User container.

To import Notes resources to a separate container:

  1. Start Active Directory Users and Computers
    On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Active Directory Users and Computers.
  2. Create the import container if you have not already done so.
  3. Under the import container, create a container for imported Notes resources.
  4. In Microsoft Notepad, open the Exchsrvr\Conndata\Dxamex\Mapnotes.tbl file.
  5. Caution   Make a copy of the original Mapnotes.tbl file before modifying it.

  6. Comment out the following line by typing a semicolon (;) before the first character:
  7. DN = ISEQUAL( Resource, "", X500( FullName, "CN" ), Strip( FullName, ";", "L", "R" ) )
    
  8. Add the following line:
  9. DN = ISEQUAL( Resource, "", X500( FullName, "CN" ), Strip( FullName, ";", "L", "R" ) ",OU=Subcontainer" )
    

    where Subcontainer is the name of the container you created in step 3.

  10. Save the file.
  11. If you have previously synchronized directory information, delete all previously imported resources from the import container.
  12. Start System Manager
    On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Exchange, and then click System Manager.
  13. Navigate to Connectors.
