If an HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) user account or user group is deleted from the operating system or has been disabled or locked out and the user account is already signed into HP SIM, the signed in user is not affected. Therefore, to remove a signed in user from HP SIM, the user account must be deleted from within HP SIM. This forces the user account to log out if it is already signed into HP SIM.

When deleting a user group, all members of the group lose membership in that group. This causes those users' authorizations, configuration rights, and login IP address restrictions to be updated based on their new group memberships. For users that are no longer members of any user group, they are deleted from HP SIM.

Deleting a user or user group deletes the ability to log in as well as all associated authorizations and tasks owned by the affected user.

You cannot remove the last user account with full-configuration-rights.

To delete a user account or user group:

  1. Select OptionsSecurityUsers and AuthorizationsUsers.

  2. Select the users and groups to be deleted.

  3. Click [Delete].

  4. A confirmation box appears. Click [OK] to delete the selected users and user groups, or click [Cancel ] to cancel the deletion process and return to the Users section. If deleting a user group also deletes any members of the group, a second confirmation box appears listing which users will be deleted. Click [OK] to continue and delete all listed users, or click [Cancel] to cancel the deletion process and return to the Users section.

    The users, user groups, associated authorizations, and tasks are permanently deleted.

Command Line Interface

Users with full-configuration-rights can use the mxuser command to modify users and user groups from the command line interface (CLI).

Users with limited-configuration-rights can use the mxexec command to launch command tools on one or more systems from the CLI. For assistance with this command, refer to the associated manpage.

Refer to Getting Started - Using Command Line Interface Commands for information on accessing the manpage.
