Deleting Users and Groups
When you delete a user or a group, the user or group is permanently deleted from all groups of which it is a member. If you delete a user that was imported, the user can be reimported during the next import sync operation.
If you delete a group, members of the group are not deleted. Members that belong to other groups remain as members of the other groups. Members that are not members of other groups are moved to the Unassigned group.
If you delete a group that contains one or more subgroups, the subgroups remain in the user tree. A subgroup might remain as a member of a different group or, if the subgroup is not part of a different group, it is moved to the Unassigned group.
If you imported users from a Windows domain, users deleted from the Windows domain are not automatically deleted from the MediaCentral UX user database and they are not deleted if you perform another import. You need to disable or delete the accounts manually.
An administrator cannot delete a domain controller group imported from an Active Directory system. You can delete all members of the group, but you cannot delete the group itself.
To delete a user:
1. In the user tree, select a user. You can use the filter field (Ctrl-F) to locate the user. Use the Up and Down Arrow keys to move from the filter field to the user tree and back again.
Use Ctrl+click (Windows) or Command+click (Macintosh) to select multiple users, or Shift+click to select contiguous users.
2. Do one of the following:
Click the Delete button.
Right-click and select Delete.
Click the Pane Menu button and select Delete.
Press Ctrl+Delete.
If one user is selected in the user tree, and a different user is displayed in the Details pane, the user selected in the user tree is deleted.
To delete a group:
