Configuring the Administrators to Authorize the Storage Deletion

When you delete a library, a mount path or a backup location, the deletion must be approved by the administrator users for the deletion to take effect.

If the storage creator is a company user, the users of the Tenant Admin user group become the default administrators. If the storage creator is not a company user, the users of Master user group become the default administrators. The administrator users receive an email notification to approve or deny the deletion. The deletion must be approved by at least one administrator.

You can use the DeleteLibraryMountPathAuthorization workflow to change the administrators who can approve the deletion from default user groups to another users or user groups and to specify the approvers count.

Note

  • The user who performed deletion is not counted as approver.
  • If the number of administrator users in the software is less than the approvers count specified in the workflow, then you must add required number of administrator users to get approval for the deletion.
