20.8 Disabling Vibe User Accounts

OpenText recommends that you disable user accounts instead of deleting them. When you delete a user account, the account can never be re-activated. If there is the slightest possibility that the user might return to your Vibe site, disable the user account rather than delete it. Disabled accounts do not count as a licensed user.

This section describes how to disable local user accounts as well as accounts that are being synchronized with an LDAP directory.

  1. Log in to Vibe as the Vibe administrator.
