Deleting a Cloud Admin Group

You can only delete a Cloud Admin Group if there a no Cloud VM Sets registered with the group and no KeyControl-managed users or Active Directory (AD) groups associated with the group.

To verify that there are no associated Cloud VM Sets or AD groups, you can look at the KeyControl User Members, AD Group Members, and Number of VM Sets columns on the Security > Groups tab. All three of these columns must show 0 (zero) members before you can delete the group.

Note: You cannot delete the Cloud Admin Group created when KeyControl was installed. The default name for this group is Cloud Admin Group.

Procedure 

  1. If there are Cloud VM Sets still associated with this Cloud Admin Group:

    1. Log into the KeyControl webGUI using an account with Cloud Admin privileges. This account must be a member of the Cloud Admin Group that you intend to delete. In addition, if you want to transfer the Cloud VM Sets to another Cloud Admin Group instead of deleting them, this account must also be a member of the Cloud Admin Groups to which you want to transfer the Cloud VM Sets.
    2. In the top menu bar, click Cloud.
    3. On the VM Sets tab, look at the Group column. For each Cloud VM Set that is registered with the Cloud Admin Group you want to delete, either delete that Cloud VM Set or associate that Cloud VM Set with a new Cloud Admin Group.
  2. If necessary, log into the KeyControl webGUI on any node in the cluster using an account with Security Admin privileges.
  3. In the top menu bar, click Security.
  4. Click the Groups tab.
  5. Select the group you want to delete.
  6. Click the Members tab and remove any AD groups or KeyControl-managed users.
  7. Click Actions > Delete Group.
  8. Click Proceed at the prompt.
