Why each option

In Novell eDirectory, the term 'context' specifically identifies an object's location within the directory tree.

AContextCorrect

Context is the eDirectory term for an object's position in the tree, expressed as the ordered list of container objects (Organizational Units and Organization) that hold the object, read from the immediate parent up to the root - for example, OU=IS.OU=CORP.O=DA is the context of any object residing in the IS container.

BProperty

Property (also called attribute) describes a characteristic or value stored on an object, not where the object resides in the tree.

CPartition

Partition is a segment of the eDirectory database distributed across servers for replication and fault tolerance, not a descriptor of object position.

DContainment

Containment refers to the eDirectory schema rules that define which object classes can hold other object classes, not the specific position of an object.

EEnvironment

Environment is not a defined eDirectory term for describing an object's location in the directory hierarchy.
