Deleting user accounts and user groups
If an HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) user account or user group is deleted from the operating system,
or disabled or locked out, and the user is already signed in to HP SIM, the signed-in user is not affected.
Therefore, to remove a signed in user from HP SIM, the user account must be deleted from within HP SIM.
Deleting the user account from HP SIM forces the user to sign out if he or she is already signed in to HP SIM.
