To run Oracle Internet Directory in a replication environment means that you have 
more than one Oracle Internet Directory, each with its own OracleAS Metadata 
Repository. The Oracle Internet Directory instances synchronize the data in the 
metadata repositories so that the data in the repositories are "loosely consistent". This 
means that the data in the repositories are not guaranteed to be synchronized in "real 
time", but the data become identical within an acceptable time interval.

This chapter provides information from an installation point of view. For in-depth 
information on replication, see the following guides:

■

For information on Oracle Internet Directory replication concepts and 
administration, see the Oracle Internet Directory Administrator’s Guide.

■

For information on Oracle Internet Directory replication deployment scenarios, see 
the Oracle Identity Management Infrastructure Administrator’s Guide.

There are two types of replication. During installation, you select the type of 
replication that you want.
