Results of Unregistering

On rare occasions, you may want to unregister CA Network Flow Analysis. For example, you would unregister a CA Network Flow Analysis instance before registering it with a different CA Performance Center or CA NetQoS Performance Center instance. Unregister only if it is really necessary.

If you unregister CA Network Flow Analysis, the following rules apply:

• Users: Users who are not associated with CA Network Flow Analysis are deleted. Existing User IDs remain unchanged. You cannot add new users or edit user account settings while unregistered.
• Roles: Roles are not deleted. Users continue to have their previous roles. Existing Role IDs remain unchanged. You cannot change the roles or permissions for existing users while unregistered.
• Groups:
  • Groups that do not exist in CA Network Flow Analysis are deleted. You cannot add or change groups while unregistered.
  • Nested groups that are associated with an interface are displayed as interface groups in the NFA console.
  • Groups that are not associated with an interface are displayed as permissions.
• Single Sign-On and LDAP: Single Sign-On and LDAP values remain unchanged.

Note: For a more detailed description of the results of unregistering during an upgrade of CA Network Flow Analysis, see the CA Network Flow Analysis Upgrade Guide.
