Parent topic: RHPCTL Command Reference

Deletes a user from the Fleet Patching and Provisioning repository.

Syntax

rhpctl delete user -user user_name [-client cluster_name]

Parameters

Table A-54 rhpctl delete user Command Parameters

Parameter	Description
`-user user_name`	Specify the name of the user you want to delete from a Fleet Patching and Provisioning Client.
`-client cluster_name`	Optionally, you can specify the name of the client cluster from which you want to delete from a specific user.

Usage Notes

You can delete non built-in users only if that user does not own any working copies.
If the user created an image or image series, then you can still delete the user, but the creator of the image or image series is changed to internal-user@GHS.
If the user was the owner of an image series, then you can delete the user, but the owner of the image series will be changed to internal-user@GHS. You can still use the affected image series as normal, such that you can still provision a working copy from the affected image series, and you can still insert or delete images from the affected image series.

Example

The following example deletes the user named scott on the server cluster from the Fleet Patching and Provisioning repository:

$ rhpctl delete user -user scott
