NOTE:

When creating an administrator, there is no option to select the ou to which to add the user as there is with a regular Directory Server user. This is because the administrator is added to ou=Groups,ou=Topology,o=NetscapeRoot, with the admin users.

The entry can be added to an ou or a view, if views have been added to the directory.
