Deleting system credentials

Use the Configure System Credentials page to delete system credentials that are no longer needed.

Before you begin

If you have created any automated tasks in IBM® Flex System Manager, ensure that you check the systems that are the targets of those tasks and the credentials that are used to log in to those systems. Some tasks might be configured to use a set of credentials to accomplish the procedures in the task. Deleting the set of credentials that are used by one of these automated tasks will prevent the task from accessing targeted systems that are secured.

Note: You will not receive a warning when deleting a credential that is associated with an automated task, and the task will no longer be able to access the system.
