Can't Delete Organizational Unit Even when Protect Object From Accidental Deletion is Disabled

-
I recently ran into an issue where I did not have the option to delete an Organizational unit. I made sure to uncheck "Protect Object From Accidental Deletion", and I had the appropriate permissions on the security tab.
Attempting to delete from ADSI edit resulted in the error below:

Operation failed. Error code: 0x20ce
The requested delete operation could not be performed. 
000020CW: SvcErrL DSID-0315370F, problem 5003 (WILL_NOT_PERFORM), data 0


The solution was to use redircmp to redirect new PCs to a different OU.

redircmp "OU=Servers,OU=Computers,DC=example,DC=com"

Restart Active Directory Users and Computers, and the delete option should be available for the OU.

    Only 다파벳 recently, TwinSpires celebrated a number of new games from AGS. Club machines will literally block the jackpot if there aren't sufficient coins in the machine to pay it out. A machine with full payout tubes diverts all incoming coins to the money box. This is called as} "backing." Every coin that goes back to the money box is pure revenue.

    Thanks for posting this. Just had the exact same issue today. I was trying to delete an OU that was an immediate *Child OU* of the OU that newly domain-joined PCs went in to! "Rename" and "Delete" only became visible once I redircmp to a different "sibling" OU of the original destination.

I offer consulting engagements and can be reached here: consulting[а 𝐭 ]amorales[․]org This article will cover some common issues I have ran into, and steps on how to resolve them. The guide should be followed  in order  since most of the advanced items are usually not the cause of a problem. If you just set up FSLogix, make sure that you followed every step under  Deploying FSLogix Office 365 Containers  and  Deploying FSLogix Profile Containers Terminology ODFC = Office Data File Containers This is there Office (Outlook, Teams, Licensing) data is stored This can be used in conjunction with UPDs FSL Profiles Replacement for UPDs User profiles are stored here (Office data is stored in the ODFC) Cannot  be used in conjunction with UPDs Non-Issues The items below should be ignored when troubleshooting Local_ files under C:\Users If FSLogix profiles are enabled, these folders can be ignored.

Have an issue you can't solve? I offer consulting engagements and can be reached here: consulting[а 𝐭 ]amorales[․]org Last Updated 2020-01-03 After months of testing I recommend deploying FSLogix Profile Containers instead of User Profile Disks. You can find my guide here . Some of the items below apply to FSL Profile Containers.  User Profile Disks (UPDs) are great for load balanced RDS farms since it allows users to seamlessly roam from server to server. The goal of this article will be to configure the RDS and file servers in a way that maximizes performance and reduces the likelihood of UPD disconnects. I'll keep this updated any time I find new improvements. Use FSLogix Before you even consider deploying UPDs you need to be aware of  this limitation . On Server 2012 and 2016 (Server 2019 does not have this issue,  but it doesn't support Office ) the Windows Search index is machine wide. This means that when a UPD is disconnected the user's index data is d

Deploying FSLogix Office 365 Containers

Have an issue you can't solve? I offer consulting engagements and can be reached here: consulting[а 𝐭 ]amorales[․]org Updated 2020-04-27 This search portion of this guide does not apply to Server 2019 since it  should roam the Windows search out of the box . However, you can still configure FSLogix to store Office 365 data.  In my experience it is best to avoid mixing FSLogix and UPDs. My recommendation is to go with FSLogix Profiles and FSLogix ODFC. If you have dealt with User Profile Disks and Office 365 then you might know about the issues with search indexing. Every time a user signs out of the RDS their index is cleared and it has to be rebuilt the next time they sign in. The index will never fully rebuild once you have 5+ users on the server since it throttles itself. Recently I discovered FSLogix which resolves this issue with minimal configuration. FSLogix creates its own UPD that it uses to store Outlook, OneDrive, and search index data. It then tricks Windows in
