Setting up and managing NDS objects

Deleting objects from the directory tree

When you delete a leaf object, NDS removes references to the deleted object. For example, if you delete a Profile object, that Profile object is deleted from any User objects that list it. Or, if you delete a User object, all trustee assignments listing that user are deleted.

Some special considerations apply when you delete particular objects, such as a NetWare Server object, a User object, or an Alias object. These are explained in ``Cautions when deleting server objects'', ``Cautions when deleting user objects'' and ``Cautions when deleting alias objects''.

NOTE: You cannot undo a Delete Object operation. To get the object back, you must re-create it and re-enter all data in its properties.

You can use NetWare Administrator or NETADMIN to delete objects from the Directory tree. Both procedures are described later in this topic.
