Each department's Department OU is the named OU in the Departments container at the root of the domain (ex. "OU=TEST,OU=Departments,DC=austin,DC=utexas,DC=edu" or "austin.utexas.edu/Departments/TEST") and contains resources managed by the department such as computer and group objects. Each department's Administrative OU is the named OU in the Departments container under the Administrative container at the root of the domain (ex. "OU=TEST,OU=Departments,OU=Administrative,DC=austin,DC=utexas,DC=edu" or "austin.utexas.edu/Administrative/Departments/TEST") contains resources managed by the Department User Tools such as department user accounts and membership in the department administrators group (ex.
