Is there any limitation to migrate multi level Organizational Unit (OU) hierarchy structure from Novell eDirectory to Microsoft Active Directory using NDS Migrator?
NDS Migrator is able to migrate multi level Organizational Unit (OU) hierarchy structure as far as the eDirectory & Active Directory distinguished name do not exceed the limitation & guideline by the product vendor.
For Novell:
An eDirectory or NDS relative distinguished name cannot exceed 128 characters. An eDirectory or NDS distinguished name cannot exceed 256 characters
Refer to the Novell Article - "Novell Error Codes"

For Microsoft:
The maximum length for the name of an organizational unit (OU) is 64 characters. This limitation prevents an OU name from surpassing the file system limit of 260 characters when Universal Naming Convention (UNC) paths are constructed for Group Policy.
