You can temporarily or permanently disable identity federation for tenant groups and users. When identity federation is disabled, there is no communication between the StorageGRID Webscale system and the identity source. However, any settings you have configured are retained, allowing you to easily re-enable identity federation in the future.
About this task
Before you disable identity federation, you should be aware of the following:
- Federated users will be unable to sign in.
- Federated users who are currently signed in will retain access to the tenant account until their session expires, but they will be unable to sign in after their session expires.
- Synchronization between the StorageGRID Webscale system and the identity source will not occur.
