I have a problem, I need to move my SharePoint service accounts in Active Directory to another OU. I wonder how my SharePoint farm will be affected at all by this move. Any ideas?

It should be ok, as far as I know the SharePoint user accounts are identified only by CN and SSID rather than by full path.

On the other hand if it does break everything you can always move them back whilst you work out another option.

I dont think that there is a break of sharepoint.If the OU is in same domain then its not an issue.

SharePoint is concerned about correct user Id and password for all the authorizations.

However, If you have any configurations for specific OU in User Profile Service Application, please make sure that new OU is added there.

Thanks,

That's it, User Profile Service is what I was worried about I just didn't remember.

Thanks for your input.
