Hi All, Kindly let me know what changes happen when we extend the schema for SCCM. What are the LDAP entries that get altered in the process? Thanks in advance!

Hello - I think, you can get the details from below articles? Have you seen these? http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb633121.aspx http://www.jannesalink.com/blog1.php/2008/12/29/sccm-and-active-directory http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680432.aspxAnoop C Nair - This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees, and confers no rights. |Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

Open the ConfigMgr_ad_schema.ldf file on the site server and check it. It's the one you can use to extend the schema.Kent Agerlund | My blogs: http://blog.coretech.dk/author/kea/ and http://scug.dk/ | Twitter @Agerlund | Linkedin: /kentagerlund

Yes. I already went through these docs. Gave an overview of schema extension but not the exact entries. Thanks anyway. I really appreciate your help.

Thankyou Kent. Ill check the file. But do we have any technet article that lists the entries and the effect the entries are going to make if we extend the schema?

Heh Anoop. Thanks a lot. Sry I overlooked it previously.

Note that the objects and attributes added by the ConfigMgr Schema extension are completely unique to ConfigMgr and have no overlap with any other product, do not effect any other product, and are not effected by any other product. Thus they are completely benign.Jason | http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jsandys | Twitter @JasonSandys

Thanks a lot Jason. I appreciate your help!
