Selection Formulas Not Always Followed in Directory Catalog Updates in Domino R5

Technote Number: 1089238


Problem:
This issue was reported to Lotus Software Quality Engineering and has been
addressed in Domino 5.0.8 and Domino 6.

Excerpt from the Lotus Notes and Domino Release 5.0.8 MR fix list (available at
http://www.lotus.com/ldd):

Directory Services - Directory Catalog

SPR# ARL4TVJFN - The Directory Catalog and Extended Directory Catalog allow
administrators to specify a selection formula to manage their contents. The
selection formula is used during the initial build and subsequent full rebuilds
of the DirCat and EDC, but is ignored during standard updates, allowing
undesired records into the database. This problem has been fixed in 5.0.8.

The selection formula in a Directory Catalog will only be used during the two
circumstances mentioned above:

During an initial build of the Directory Catalog, and
The clearing of the replication history.

Clearing the replication history is the recommended workaround until the fix
can be implemented. Note that, once the replication history is cleared, the
DIRCAT task performs a complete rebuild of the catalog, not a simple update - a
process that can take significantly longer to complete, especially with larger
catalogs.Supporting Information:
