Removing​

caution

This operation is only applicable for internal users.

The user cannot be restored after deletion.

It is not possible to remove yourself and the first role administrator.

  1. In the Users section, select one or several users.
  2. Click Remove. If there is no such button, make sure that only internal users are selected.
  3. Read the information in the pop-up window and click Remove.

Consequences of user deletion:

  • The user loses access to the PAM and cannot authenticate.
  • All active sessions end.
  • All granted permissions are revoked.
  • The user is excluded from all user groups in which the user is a member.
  • The user is excluded from the scope of the policy in which the user is a member.
  • The login of the deleted user changes: the suffix _deleted and a randomly generated string are added to the login. This allows to avoid errors when creating new users whose username matches the username of the previously deleted user.

Removed users no longer appear in the Users section, but they can be viewed using extended search.
