Mastership
Type object mastership
There are mastership issues to consider when creating attribute, hyperlink, and label type objects, particularly when creating instances of those type objects across replicas is required.
Additional restrictions for shared global types
Additional mastership restrictions exist when you use an administrative VOB hierarchy and its global types.

Additional restrictions for shared global types

Additional mastership restrictions exist when you use an administrative VOB hierarchy and its global types.

If a global type is shared, you can create instances of the type in a replica only if one of the following conditions exists:

The replica contains a local copy of the type.
The replica does not contain a local copy of the type, but the type is mastered by the administrative VOB replica at the current site. (If the type is not mastered by the administrative VOB replica, a local copy of the type cannot be created in the replica.)

These restrictions apply even if your current replica masters the object to which you are attaching the instance. These restrictions prevent conflicting, simultaneous creation of a given type with a given name at multiple sites. For more information about global types, see the Help.
