1.5. Deleting users using the command line


IdM (Identity Management) enables you to delete users permanently. You can delete:

  • Active users with the following command: ipa user-del
  • Stage users with the following command: ipa stageuser-del
  • Preserved users with the following command: ipa user-del

When deleting multiple users, use the --continue option to force the command to continue regardless of errors. A summary of the successful and failed operations is printed to the stdout standard output stream when the command completes.

$ *ipa user-del --continue user1 user2 user3*

If you do not use --continue, the command proceeds with deleting users until it encounters an error, after which it stops and exits.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. Open terminal and connect to the IdM server.
  2. Delete the user account with the following command:

    $ ipa user-del user_login
    --------------------
    Deleted user "user_login"
    --------------------

    The user account has been permanently deleted from IdM.
