Resolution
Goal
How do I create OUs under the Users and Computers containers in DRA?
Symptom
Assistant Admins are unable to create subOUs in the default Users and default Computers container via Directory and Resource Administrator.
Fact
Directory and Resource Administrator 6.x
Directory and Resource Administrator 7.x
Directory and Resource Administrator 8.x
Cause
This is by design.
Fix
This is the correct behavior and is due to a Microsoft limitation. The User and Computer containers are not Organization Units but are simply containers. OUs cannot be nested within these containers using Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA). This is the same behavior as seen in native tools (Active Directory Users and Computers).
