I have just been learning about the DS Commands, and must say I can see the practicle uses of DSquery and DSadd.

Could someone explain to me why you would use the follwing?

DSmove rather than drag and drop an object into a new container

DSrm rather than Right Click and delete the object

DSmod rather than just Right Click > Properties and change appropriate item e.g. Logon Hours etc.

I think I must be missing something, but not sure exactly what

If you wanted to make lots of changes to AD at once, or schedule changes to happen out of hours in the middle of the night you could write a batch file with your DS* commands and script the changes.

 

Thanks guys, I knew I was missing something!

What Nightwalker said makes perfect sense, to make 100's or 1000's of AD changes at non peak times when Users are not logged in.
