To Delete a Local User

1. In the role admin, label admin_low, open the User Manager as a local database.

   The user "install" is defined locally.

2. Select the user to be deleted, such as install.

3. Select Edit > Delete.

   For the user install, you do not have a home directory or mail files to delete. Other local users may have home directories and mail files to delete.

   When a user is deleted from the system, the administrator must ensure that the user's home directory and any objects owned by that user are also deleted. As an alternative to deleting objects owned by the user, the administrator may change the ownership of these objects to another user who is defined on the system.

   The administrator must also ensure that all batch jobs still to run that are associated with the deleted user are also deleted. The administrator must ensure that there are no objects or processes belonging to a deleted user that remain on the system.

4. Close the User Manager by selecting File > Exit when you are done.
