Distributed Reference Links ("DRLs") for managing the referential integrity between objects in a distributed directory server system are described. In a preferred embodiment, DRLs specify a set of attributes, precedents, and algorithms that define how a resource can notify other resource managers of a change in the identity information of one of its objects. Using DRLs, before an external reference to an object is created, a "UsedBy" attribute identifying the partition that will include contain the external reference is added to any R/W replica of the object prior to the creation of the external reference object.
