Disabling AIX system user accounts

NOTE: The behavior described in the following, only applies to user accounts in an AIX system.

The way you disable user accounts depends on how they are managed.

Scenario:

The user account is linked to employees and is managed through account definitions.

User accounts managed through account definitions are disabled when the employee is temporarily or permanently disabled. The behavior depends on the user account manage level. Accounts with the Full managed manage level are disabled depending on the account definition settings. For user accounts with a manage level, configure the required behavior using the template in the UNXAccount.AIX_account_Locked column.

Scenario:

The user accounts are linked to employees. No account definition is applied.

User accounts managed through user account definitions are disabled when the employee is temporarily or permanently disabled. The behavior depends on the QER | Person | TemporaryDeactivation configuration parameter

  • If the configuration parameter is set, the employee’s user accounts are disabled when the employee is permanently or temporarily disabled.

  • If the configuration parameter is not set, the employee’s properties do not have any effect on the associated user accounts.

To disable the user account when the configuration parameter is disabled

  1. In the Manager, select the Unix > User accounts category.

  2. Select the user account in the result list.

  3. Select the Change main data task.

  4. On the Security tab, set the account_locked option.

  5. Save the changes.
Scenario:

User accounts not linked to employees.

  3. Select the Change main data task.

  4. On the Security tab, set the account_locked option.

  5. Save the changes.

Deleting and restoring Unix user accounts

NOTE: As long as an account definition for an employee is valid, the employee retains the user account that was created by it. If the account definition assignment is removed, the user account that was created from this account definition, is deleted.

You can delete a user account that was not created using an account definition through the result list or from the menu bar. After you have confirmed the security alert the user account is marked for deletion in the One Identity Manager. The user account is locked in One Identity Manager and permanently deleted from the One Identity Manager database and the target system depending on the deferred deletion setting.

For more information about deactivating and deleting employees and user accounts, see the One Identity Manager Target System Base Module Administration Guide.

To delete a user account that is not managed using an account definition

  1. In the Manager, select the Unix > User accounts category.

  2. Select the user account in the result list.

Unix groups

In the Unix host, user accounts can be gathered into groups that can be used to regulate access to resources. Local groups are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization. You can set up new groups or edit existing groups.

To add users to groups, you assign the groups directly to users. This can be assignments of groups to departments, cost centers, locations, business roles, or the IT Shop.
