To delete an account policy instance:

  1. Navigate to the AccountPolicy Managed Object (MO), for example:

    >dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,SecM=1,UserManagement=1,LocalAuthenticationMethod=1,AccountPolicy=1

  2. Show the user accounts that use this account policy:

    (AccountPolicy=1)>show reservedByAccount

    The following is an example output:

    "ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,SecM=1,⇒
    UserManagement=1,LocalAuthenticationMethod=1,⇒
    UserAccountM=1,UserAccount=joedoe"
    "ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,SecM=1,⇒
    UserManagement=1,LocalAuthenticationMethod=1,⇒
    UserAccountM=1,UserAccount=doegeo"

  3. Change AccountPolicy for a user account.
  4. Navigate to the UserAccount MO, for example:

    >dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,SecM=1,UserManagement=1,LocalAuthenticationMethod=1,UserAccountM=1,UserAccount=joedoe

  5. Enter Config mode:

    (UserAccount=joedoe)>configure

  6. Change the account policy for the user account, by setting the reference to the appropriate AccountPolicy MO, for example:

    (config-UserAccount=joedoe)>accountPolicy="ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,SecM=1,UserManagement=1,LocalAuthenticationMethod=1,AccountPolicy=2"
