Delete a User

When a user is no longer required you must completely remove their user ID from the system to prevent an identical, newly-created user from inheriting the old user's access permissions. This situation can occur because authentication and access permissions are associated with user ID.

You delete a user by removing the user from the policy store, the Oracle Analytics Server Presentation Catalog, the semantic model, and the identity store. If you've assigned the user to any application roles, you must update the application roles to remove all references to that user.

If you're using an identity store other than Oracle WebLogic Server LDAP, follow the appropriate instructions for your identity store.

1. Delete the user from the policy store.
2. Delete the user from the Presentation Catalog and the semantic model using the deleteusers command.
3. Log in to the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console.
4. Select Security Realms, and select the realm containing the user, for example, myrealm.
5. Click Users and Groups tab, then click Users.
6. Select a user, click Delete.
7. In Delete Users, click Yes.
8. Click OK.
