If you try to remove a DHCP-Server-Object under cn=dhcp,$(ucr get ldap/base), there should be a warning, that the DHCP-Server afterwards may not be working anymore.

Can you give more details?
Which object did you delete and which error message is the DHCP server then throwing when trying to start it again?

Under `dhcp/service` there is one `dhcp/server` entry, which ist used by `isc-dhcpd-ldap` to find its configuration. If you delete this, `dhcpd` will no longer start and throw errors.

There are other objects to, which you should not delete. Deleting is always dangerous if you do not understand the underlying concepts.
