Not every agent in an eDirectory environment will hold a copy of its own NetWare Core Protocol (NCP) server object. This object contains
information that is needed to control the agent's behavior. In order
to
have this information available and to reduce network bandwidth, a
local partial cache of the NCP Server object is maintained. Also, the
Agent Configuration Synchronization process updates the NCP Server
object with changes that occur on the local agent (i.e. Network
Address, NCP Sever Name, etc.).
The Agent Configuration is stored on the Pseudo Server, which is
maintained by eDirectory. Every agent has its own copy of this object
in which to store its own agent configuration, regardless of whether
or
not it holds any replicas.
