Abstract
System and method for efficient issuance of queries, such as DirXML script queries, by a policy for a value of an attribute of an object of the target system are described. In one embodiment, the method comprises, responsive to issuance by a policy of a query for a value of a designated attribute of a designated object of a target system, checking a result cache associated with the target system to determine whether the value for the designated attribute of the designated object is stored therein; responsive to a determination that the value for the designated attribute of the designated object is stored in the result cache, returning the value stored in the result cache to the policy; and responsive to a determination that the value for the designated attribute of the designated object is not stored in the result cache, querying the target system for the value of the designated attribute of the designated object.
