Remove a Privilege

When it is necessary to remove a privilege so that it no longer provides access to the repository for any users, you need to remove the appropriate PRIV instance from the repository control tables.

To remove a user from the control tables

1. From CA Repository, choose VIEW, DIALOG to select the EXTEND dialog.
2. Choose VIEW, TYPE to select the PRIV entity type.
3. Use SYSTEM, EXTEND, REMOVE to display a list of all user definitions currently in the control tables. This list looks similar to the Import list shown in the chapter "Managing Repository Users."
4. Enter S in the SEL field of each privilege you want to remove, then press ENTER.

   A message appears indicating that the privilege definitions were successfully removed from the control tables.

IMPORTANT! Selecting a privilege from the Remove window removes that privilege from the control tables and eliminates any associations of the privilege to commands, dialogs, entity types, statuses, or workstations. The REMOVE command will not remove or otherwise affect the data in the Repository data tables (the Extend model).
