Managing Organizational Units
For more information, see “The New Organizational Unit Page,” in the online
help.
The following notes may be of interest to the directory administrator:
• New organizational units are created using the
organizationalUnit
object class.
• The distinguished name for new organizational units is of the form:
ou=new organization, ou=parent organization,
...,o=base organization, c=country
For example, if you create a new organization called Accounting within the
organizational unit West Coast, and your Base DN is o=Ace Industry,
c=
US,
then the new organization unit’s DN is:
ou=Accounting, ou=West Coast, o=Ace Industry, c=US
