Replication and configuration setsActive Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) uses replication to provide fault tolerance and load balancing for directory services. AD LDS uses a type of replication called multimaster replication. Through replication, AD LDS copies directory data updates that are made to a directory partition on one AD LDS instance to other AD LDS instances that hold copies of the same directory partition. AD LDS instances that hold copies of the same directory partition or partitions form a logical grouping called a configuration set.Multimaster replicationMultimaster replication simply means that you can make changes to directory data on any AD LDS instance. AD LDS replicates these changes to other members of the configuration set automatically. Multimaster replication is characterized by loose data consistency with convergence. When you make changes to data on a given directory partition at one AD LDS instance, replicas of that directory partition that are stored on other AD LDS instances become inconsistent with the most up-to-date replica of the directory partition (the partition where the changes were made). However, as changes get replicated through the configuration set, all partition replicas once again become identical; that is, they converge to the most recent data.Configuration setsAD LDS instances replicate data based on participation in a configuration set. All AD LDS instances that are joined to the same configuration set must replicate a common configuration directory partition and a common schema directory partition. AD LDS instances in a configuration set can also replicate any number of application directory partitions. AD LDS instances in a configuration set are not required to replicate all application directory partitions in the configuration set. A single AD LDS instance can replicate all-or any subset of-the application directory partitions in its configuration set. An AD LDS instance cannot, however, replicate an application directory partition from a different configuration set.Preventing replication conflictsWhat if two different users make changes to the same data on replicas of the same directory partition on two different AD LDS instances? In this case, each AD LDS instance attempts to replicate the changes, creating a conflict. To resolve this conflict, replication partners that receive these conflicting changes examine the attribute data that is contained in the changes, each of which holds a version and a time stamp. AD LDS instances accept the change with the higher version and discard the other change. If the versions are identical, AD LDS instances accept the change with the more recent time stamp.If two or more values in a multivalued attribute on an object are updated simultaneously on two different AD LDS instances, only one of the updated values will be replicated. In other words, simultaneous updates to a multivalued attribute that occur on two different AD LDS instances are considered to be in conflict, even if the updates apply to different values within the multivalued attribute. The only exception to this rule is for linked-value attributes (such as group memberships), which do allow for simultaneous updates to different values within the linked-value attribute.Replication topologyKnowledge Consistency Checker (KCC), a process that runs as part of each AD LDS instance, automatically constructs the most efficient topology for replication traffic to follow based on the network. The KCC regularly recalculates the replication topology to adjust for any network changes that occur in the environment.An AD LDS configuration set maintains its own replication topology, separate from any Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) replication topology that might also exist. Directory partitions cannot be replicated between AD LDS instances and AD DS domain controllers.Ensuring replication securityTo ensure replication security, AD LDS authenticates replication partners before replication, and replication authentication always occurs over a secure channel. AD LDS uses Security Support Provider Interface (SSPI) to establish the appropriate authentication security level between replication partners. The method that is used for replication authentication within a configuration set depends on the value of the msDS-ReplAuthenticationModeattribute on the configuration directory partition. After replication partners have successfully authenticated, all replication traffic between the two partners is encrypted.The following table describes the security levels for replication authentication and the corresponding msDS-ReplAuthenticationMode attribute value for each security level. The default replication security level for a new, unique AD LDS instance is 1, unless a local workstation user account is specified as the AD LDS service account. If a local workstation account is specified as the AD LDS service account, the replication security level is set to 0To help maintain AD LDS replication security, the following best practices are recommended:Use the highest level of replication security that your environment can support.In AD DS environments, run AD LDS on member servers, rather than on domain controllers, whenever possible.If you run AD LDS on a domain controller in an AD DS environment, do not use the Network Service account as the AD LDS service account. Instead, use a domain user account that does not have administrative privileges.In workgroup and Windows NT 4.0 environments, do not use an account with administrative privileges as an AD LDS service account.Use separate configuration sets for applications with strict isolation requirements

What are ad partition?

Active Directory data is logically partitioned so that each domain controller does not store all objects in the directory. Each directory partition, also called a naming context, contains objects of a particular scope and purpose. Below are the three major Active Directory partitions described:-· Schema Partition defines the object classes and their attributes for the entire directory. The configuration is replicated to everydomain controller in the forest.· Domain Partition contains all the objects stored in a domain, including users, groups, computers, and group policy containers (GPCs). This partition information is replicated to all domain controllers within a domain, but not to domain controllers in other domains.· Configuration Partition contains objects that represent the logical struct-er of the forest, domains, as well as the physical topology, including sites, subnets, and services.Application Directory Partition replicates directory partition only to specific domain controllers. This is responsible for generating and maintaining Replication topology. Objects stored in Application directory partition are not replicated to the Global Catalog.

What is ad valorem duties explain?

Ad valorem duty - ad valorem tax is an indirect tax i.e. tax on consumption and it's expressed as a percentage. For example, an ad valorem tax of 10% on computers will mean that if the computer is priced at $1000, the price will be $1100 if the computer is priced at $2000, the price will be $2200

What applications or services use AD application partitions Name a couple?

An application directory partition is a directory partition that is replicated only to specific domain controllers. A domain controller that participates in the replication of a particular application directory partition hosts a replica of that partition. Only domain controllers running Windows Server 2003 can host a replica of an application directory partition. Applications and services can use application directory partitions to store application-specific data. Application directory partitions can contain any type of object, except security principals. TAPI is an example of a service that stores its application-specific data in an application directory partition. Application directory partitions are usually created by the applications that will use them to store and replicate data. For testing and troubleshooting purposes, members of the Enterprise Admins group can manually create or manage application directory partitions using the Ntdsutil command-line tool. One of the benefits of an application directory partition is that, for redundancy, availability, or fault tolerance, the data in it can be replicated to different domain controllers in a forest. The data can be replicated to a specific domain controller or any set of domain controllers anywhere in the forest. This differs from a domain directory partition in which data is replicated to all domain controllers in that domain. Storing application data in an application directory partition instead of in a domain directory partition may reduce replication traffic because the application data is only replicated to specific domain controllers. Some applications may use application directory partitions to replicate data only to servers where the data will be locally useful.
