Deleting an SFS Manager

Deleting an SFS manager removes that user ID’s authority to perform any SFS administration functions, such as enrolling user IDs in SFS and removing file space from SFS users. It does not affect that user ID’s status or authorizations for any other functions, either inside or outside SFS administration.

You can delete an SFS manager only if that manager is not managing any user IDs in SFS. If there are user IDs enrolled in SFS under a manager you want to delete, you must first reassign those user IDs to another SFS manager. You can do so with the ASSIGN command; see the Reference Guide. If these user IDs are not using any file space, you do not have to reassign them to another manager but they must be enrolled under another SFS manager when they want to use SFS.

To delete an SFS manager

  1. From CMS, enter the following:
    vmsecure admin sfsmgrs
    

    This command displays the SFS Managers Configuration Menu.

  2. In the Selection field, type 3 to select the Delete SFS Manager option. In the Manager field, enter the user ID you want to delete as SFS manager.

    The following screen asks for confirmation so that you can back out of this request if necessary.

  3. Enter yes on the confirmation screen if you want to delete this user ID’s SFS management authority from CA VM:Secure.

    If you do not want to remove the user ID’s SFS management authority from CA VM:Secure, enter no.

  4. To remove more SFS managers, repeat from step 2.
  5. When you have removed all the SFS managers you need to, press PF3 to return to CMS.
