Delete an Authorized Manager

You can delete a scheduling manager that is no longer authorized to communicate with the local agent.

Note: If you delete a scheduling manager from the Authorized Manager List pane on the Agent - CA Workload Automation AE Administrator window, it does not help ensure that the scheduling manager cannot run jobs on the local agent. When the local agent receives the first job request from the deleted scheduling manager, the deleted scheduling manager gets listed in the Authorized Manager List pane on the Agent - CA Workload Automation AE Administrator window. To restrict an unauthorized scheduling manager, you must change the encryption key of the local agent using the as_config command and JIL statements for machine definitions. For more information about how to set the encryption key, see the Windows Implementation Guide.
