Transferring resources to a different operator

You can associate a resource of a converted local operator to a different operator instead of the corresponding LDAP operator.

Before you begin

You must ensure that the new operator has the correct permissions to view and edit the tasks that are referenced by the software package or Application Management Group before initiating the transfer of ownership. Otherwise, the Tasks in the Package or Application Management Group might not correctly transfer over to the new operator.

All the Application Management Groups of an orphaned owner must be stopped for the transfer process to complete.

Procedure

  1. From the Manage Software Distribution dashboard, you are prompted to select a new owner to replace the orphaned owner.

  2. Select a new owner instead of the corresponding LDAP operator from the drop-down list.
  3. Click Commit.

Results

The resources that used to belong to the orphaned owner now belongs to a new operator.
