The Distribution Algorithm is an algorithm used by a distribution workflow element to split a DIT into subsets of entries. Each and every entry is in exactly one of these subsets.
The following Distribution Algorithms are available in the server :
These Distribution Algorithms inherit from the properties described below.
The following components have a direct COMPOSITION relation FROM Distribution Algorithms :
