Removing a user

A user name and password are required to be able to log in to the user interface. If you no longer need a specific user, however, you can remove that user from WebSphere® DataPower® XC10 Appliance.

Before you begin

You must be assigned the Appliance administration permission to perform these steps.

About this task

When you delete a user, all the resources owned by that user are automatically transferred to you. Use these steps to remove a user account from your appliance using the WebSphere DataPower XC10 Appliance user interface.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the Users panel.
    • From the menu bar at the top of the WebSphere DataPower XC10 Appliance user interface, navigate to Collective > Users.
    • From the Home page, click the Create users link in the Step 1: Set up the appliance section.
  2. Click the <user_name> of the user to select the user you intend to delete.
    Note: The Administrator user account, xcadmin, cannot be deleted.
  3. Click the delete icon (delete) to begin deleting the user. A message box is displayed requesting confirmation that this user can permanently be deleted.
  4. Click OK.
