Delete a User role.

In QuantaStor, the "Delete Role" feature serves the purpose of permanently removing a user role from the system. Deleting a role in QuantaStor removes all associated permissions and settings tied to that role.

Note, this tool cannot be used unless all users with the selected role have been removed.


Here's an overview of the purpose and implications of deleting a role in QuantaStor:

  • Revoking permissions: When you delete a role, any permissions assigned to that role are revoked. This means that users or user groups assigned to the deleted role will lose their associated access rights and privileges.
  • Reassigning users: If users or user groups are exclusively assigned to the deleted role, they will no longer have a role affiliation. It may be necessary to assign them to another existing role or create a new one to ensure appropriate permissions and access control.
  • Cleaning up and organization: Deleting unnecessary roles helps keep the QuantaStor environment clean and organized. It allows administrators to remove redundant or obsolete roles, reducing clutter and simplifying role management.

Before deleting a role, it is important to consider the potential impact on users or user groups and their access privileges. Ensure that any users or user groups exclusively assigned to the deleted role are appropriately reassigned or added to other roles with the necessary permissions.
