Problem
How to add an Active Directory OU (organization unit) under the same DCO (Directory Configuration Object) to filter only specific OU's during authentication in Filenet Content Manager?
Cause
Resolving The Problem
Following are alternatives that you may use since there is not a way to add multiple DCO's for OU's under the same suffix. This is as designed.
Two OUs under the same domain belonging to the same P8 DCO is not supported. You can create a new domain and create that OU there and then add it as its own new DCO.
For LDAP servers other than Active Directory, one possible solution is to create a new user in the directory and change its permission so that it does not have permission to search the other OUs you do not want read or browsed and use that as the CE bind user. This may work but is not tested or certified and require customer testing and verification
