# NotPermittedOnRootSubnet (/docs/errors/chain/NotPermittedOnRootSubnet)

An admin-utils call that only applies to regular subnets (burn half-life, burn increase multiplier, owner-cut flags, or the subnet emission toggle) was targeted at the root network. Check that the `netuid` argument is not the root netuid 0.

Declared by the `AdminUtils` pallet; it classifies to the semantic code [`invalid_argument`](/docs/errors/invalid-argument).

## Remediation [#remediation]

The same explanation is available in the terminal: `btcli explain NotPermittedOnRootSubnet`.
