The Association utility requires two parameters (oldRDN and newRDN) for operations 6 and 7 in order to search and replace.
The first value (for example, schema) in the parameter is the search criterion. The second value (for example, old) is the replacement value. Under certain scenarios, you can use the wildcard character * to generalize the search criterion or replacement value.
Three types of search and replace operations are possible:
