<p>Not all schema changes are allowed. See <a href="rzahydisallowschema.htm#rzahydisallowschema">Disallowed schema changes</a> for
change restrictions.</p>
<p><span class="bold">Web administration</span></p>
<p>If you have not done so already, expand <span class="bold">Schema
management</span> in the navigation area, then click <span class="bold">Manage object classes</span>. To edit an object class:</p>
<ol type="1">
<li>Click the radio button next to the object class that you want
to edit.</li>
<li>Click <span class="bold">Edit </span>.</li>
<li>Select a tab:
<ul>
<li>Use the <span class="bold">General</span> tab to:
<ul>
<li>Change the <span class="bold">Description</span>.</li>
<li>Change the <span class="bold">Superior object class</span>. Select a Superior object class from the drop-down list. This determines
the object class from which other attributes are inherited. Typically the <span class="bold">Superior object class</span> is <span class="bold">top</span>, however, it can be another object class. For example, a superior
object class for <span class="bold">tempEmployee</span> might be <span class="bold">ePerson</span>.</li>
<li>Change the <span class="bold">Object class type</span>. Select an
object class type. See <a href="rzahyobjectclass.htm#rzahyobjectclass">Object classes</a> for additional information
about object class types.</li>
<li>Click the Attributes tab to change the required and the optional
attributes for the object class and view the inherited attributes, or click <span class="bold">OK</span> to apply your changes or click <span class="bold">Cancel</span> to return to <span class="bold">Manage object classes</span> without making any changes.</li></ul></li>
<li>Use the <span class="bold">Attributes</span> tab to:
<p>Select an
attribute from the alphabetical list of <span class="bold">Available
attributes</span> and click <span class="bold">Add to required</span> to
make the attribute required or click <span class="bold">Add to optional</span> to make the attribute optional for the object class. The attribute is
displayed in the appropriate list of selected attributes.</p>
<p>Repeat this
process for all the attributes you want to select.</p>
<p>You can move an attribute
from one list to another or delete the attribute from the selected lists by
selecting it and clicking the appropriate <span class="bold">Move
to</span> or <span class="bold">Delete</span> button.</p>
<p>You can view
the lists of required and optional inherited attributes. Inherited attributes
are based on the <span class="bold">Superior object class</span> selected
on the <span class="bold">General</span> tab. You cannot change the
inherited attributes. However, if you change the <span class="bold">Superior object class</span> on the <span class="bold">General</span> tab,
a different set of inherited attributes is displayed.</p></li></ul></li>
<li>Click <span class="bold">OK</span> to apply the changes
or click <span class="bold">Cancel</span> to return to <span class="bold">Manage object classes</span> without making any changes.</li></ol>
