Configuring CA Directory

You can configure CA Directory to be the directory service for Content Cortex.

Make sure to consider the following requirements:

The Windows server where CA Directory Server is installed must have an NTFS hard drive partition.
The CA Directory administrator might have to create an index if the sorting attribute is not in the list of default attributes shipped by CA Directory.
Access control settings in Content Cortex require that all users have Browse access on the directory server. If you do not want to set Browse access at the individual user level, it is a best practice to establish a Public trustee for the realm.
Content Cortex supports cross-realm group memberships. This means that Content Cortex supports a configuration in which a group is in one realm while some or all of its users are in another.
Server Side Sorting (SSS) must be enabled. This is because Content Cortex components call on Content Platform Engine to perform searches using a sorted paging mechanism. Note that SSS is normally enabled by default but is sometimes disabled due to concerns with performance.
