The requested operation could not be performed because the directory service is not the master for that type of operation.

I am getting this erro when I try to move a user from child domain to root domain using ADMT.

2015-09-08 11:26:48 ERR2:7422 Failed to move source object 'CN=John alias'. hr=0x80072012  The requested operation could not be performed because the directory service is not the master for that type of operation.

Anyone faced the same issue?
is there anyone who can guide me fix this?

it seems that issue is with the Account permission from which you are trying to move. Can you please check on the both domains for the account.
please move your FSMO on destination server on which DC you are trying move this user.

Specially RID master.

I didn't understand the above
I was meant to RID master role hosting child domain's DC.
Have you tried moving the user, using Move Tree command line? If not please try the link for more info.

Another thought is this; try removing the group membership and associated GPOs for the user .

Also make sure the user was not in account locked out state, if so reset the password and try.

I found something today. When I run command "netdom query fsmo" from child DCs I am getting warning.

C:\Users\Administrator>netdom query fsmo
Schema master               *** Warning: role owner is a deleted DC: CN=NTDS Settings\0ADEL:584a2306-cca1-41fe-8443-5b4ecbe424f1,CN=MYDC01,CN=Servers,CN=mycompany,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=edu,DC=kw
Domain naming master        *** Warning: role owner is a deleted DC: CN=NTDS Settings\0ADEL:584a2306-cca1-41fe-8443-5b4ecbe424f1,CN=MYDC01,CN=Servers,CN=mycompany,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=edu,DC=kw
PDC                         MYDCCO-DC-01.domain.com
RID pool manager            MYDCCO-DC-01.domain.com
Infrastructure master       MYDCCO-DC-01.domain.com
The command completed successfully.

It is pointing to a deleted DC. If I run from root domain it is listing new DC.
