Error Message while Deleting Users with "dsrm" Command

I am using the "dsrm" command in .cmd script files to delete users from an OU in bulk: approximately 2,500 this time. (So far, the "dsadd user" command has worked fine for creating them in bulk.) However, when the script reaches the 1,324th command iteration I get an error message almost consistently on consecutive iterations:

dsrm failed: ...{parameters}... :The server is not operational.

When I trim the file down to the last 1,200 (give or take), all the remaining users get deleted. Is there some built-in limitation that I can somehow overcome? Your assistance on this matter is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
