destroy (User Management)--Delete an Existing User

Delete an existing user

<name>

Name of local user to delete. If the user name begins with '-' (e.g., '--myname'), the <name> argument must be preceded with '--' (e.g., '-- --myname').

Examples

user destroy myuser

Note: This command removes the specified user from the grid's controller. It also removes the user's SSH key, if one was set up, disabling the user's access to the command line interface too.
