Removing the Global Role Administrator from a Standalone Role

Remove the global role administrator from an existing standalone role.

Prerequisites
Database Version Global Role Administrator Privileges
SAP Sybase IQ 15.3 and 15.4 Not supported.
SAP Sybase IQ 16.0 You must have one of:
  • Administrative rights over the role being managed
  • MANAGE ROLES system privilege
Task

If revoking membership in a role would result in a failure to meet the minimum number of role administrators for the selected role, an error message appears, and the removal fails.

  1. In the Perspective Resources view, select the resource, and select Resource > Administration Console.
  2. In the left pane, expand IQ Servers > Security > Role-Based, and then select Standalone Roles.
  3. Select a role from the right pane and either:
    • Click the arrow to the right of the name and select Manage Grantee, or
    • From the Administration Console menu bar, select Resource > Manage Grantee.
    Note: The Manage Grantee option is unavailable if you do not have rights to manage the role.
  4. Select MANAGE ROLES and click Revoke.
    Note:
    • The Revoke button is unavailable if you do not have administrative rights to the selected system privilege.
    • The MANAGE ROLES system privilege can also be revoked using the Manage System Privileges menu option. However, this revoke does not remove the global role administrator from the role.
  5. Do one of:
    • Click OK to update any changes to the database and exit the properties view.
    • Click Apply to update any changes to the database, but remain in the properties view.
    • Click Cancel to cancel any changes not updated to the database and exit the properties view.
