Re: Problem in moving subtree of entries to new parent.

[Brown Diego <browndeigo@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, I had gone through the topic. Thanks for the pointer.

It says really there is no way to move subtrees to different parent. Instead I need to create same entry with same attributes under the parent suffix to which I need to actually move it and finally delete the old ones?

Is my understanding right? If so it is just like creating a new entry under a parent. It doesn't means move an existing entry to another suffix.

If I am wrong throw some light on this.

Thanks,
Brown Diego

This is the restriction the current FDS has.  Please see "2.4.2.1. A Note on Renaming Entries" on this Administration Guide page.

Hello all,

Currently I am facing problem with moving subtree of entries to a new parent.

I am trying to move a subtree or a user to a new parent. I am getting the following error message.

There are two OU’s under the suffix o=xyzcorp.com <http://xyzcorp.com> ou=education and ou=finance.
Browny is the user in ou=education,o=xyzcorp.com <http://xyzcorp.com>. Now I need to move Browny to ou=finance,o=xyzcorp.com <http://xyzcorp.com>.

When I attempt to do the following modification I am getting error.

dn: cn=Browny,ou=education,o=xyzcorp.com <http://xyzcorp.com>

changetype: modrdn
newrdn: cn=BrownyNew
deleteoldrdn: 0

newsuperior: ou=finance,o= xyzcorp.com <http://xyzcorp.com>

*new RDN: cn=BrownyNew, new parent ou=finance,o= xyzcorp.com <http://xyzcorp.com> (keep existing values)
modifying RDN of entry cn=Browny,ou= education,o= xyzcorp.com <http://xyzcorp.com> and/or moving it beneath a new parent

ldap_rename: DSA is unwilling to perform
ldap_rename: additional info: server does not support moving of entries*


*I tried it this way also,…….

*dn: cn=Browny,ou=education,o=xyzcorp.com <http://xyzcorp.com>

changetype: modrdn
newrdn: cn=Browny
deleteoldrdn: 1

newparent: ou=finance,o= xyzcorp.com <http://xyzcorp.com>

*……no success*

Like the same way I am not able to move the OU also to a new parent.

Is anybody aware of this.

If so educate me how to do this.


Thanks in advance,
Brown Deigo.
