Removing Master Operator

(imported topic written by jpeppers91)

I’m the 3rd admin to take over our Bigfix deployment. I want to remove the previous administrators accounts. I want to be sure I can based on the the fix in the release notes I found. I don’t want to inadvertently remove our site subscriptions. Our deployment is running at 7.2.4.60.

Removing a Master Operator no longer removes site subscriptions created by that Master Operator (bug 21266)

Hey jpeppers,

This is an area where there were historically a lot of bugs… Especially back in the 4.x/5.x days of BigFix…Today, we don’t see many issues with this so I would expect that things would go well… and certainly if something unanticipated goes wrong, our support team can help address it… but I do think things should work fine…

Is there any harm removing the folder where the private key is held for the deleted user?

Nope… None at all… Just make sure you note that if the key is lost, the user can never issue actions again…

These users are no longer here.
