Managing AGS users

[PanGIS]

Hi guys,

I need to change and delete a couple of users in our ArcGIS server built-in store.

While I am pretty sure that the termination of these accounts (admin, publisher and user) will not affect any service of ours, what about the primary site administrator name?

If I change the password I will lose the connection from ArcGIS Catalog and that's OK, I can recreate that.

But will the change of the PSA password affect any existing service?

Thanks!

I think you can edit the PSA username and password, without much disruption. Avoid deleting the PSA.

If you don't need the PSA at this moment, you could just disable it. Ensure you have another Administrator user account.

Thanks, Jayanta.

Yes I am aware both of not to delete the PSA or the disabling option.

Right now I would like to clean a bit of rubbish but I will disable it as soon as possible.
