In this paper, the potential role and feasibility of the X.500 Directory Service within the CORDS management services is studied. A simple network monitoring application was adapted to use a prototype X.500 Directory Service for (1) device information, (2) application information, and (3) for compiling summary information on network load. This study is a first step towards the understanding of the possible role of the Directory Service in the management of distributed systems and applications. This work provides an initial feasibility study whose results suggest that the X.500 Directory Service can be used for the storage and retrieval of management information in the management framework. The results also suggest that the Directory Service can be used without it being the bottleneck in certain management operations.
