Deleting a user entity vCAC

$

Recently we had an issue with a user which when they tried to view a vCAC machine on the Items page and it would not completely load.  Only a couple action items would appear.  The machine information, storage, networking, properties and Snapshots tabs were not visible.  By accident, while looking into vCAC machine ownership change via vCO, I discovered how to remove a user entity.  We tried this and it solved the user's problems.

 

Inputs: ADUser (AD:User), vCACHost (vCAC:VCACHost)

 

var Owner = ADUser.userPrincipalName;

System.log("Owner: " + Owner);

 

var modelName = 'ManagementModelEntities.svc';

var entitySetName = 'Users';

var headers = null;

var properties = new Properties();

 

var entity = vCACEntityManager.readModelEntitiesByCustomFilter(vCACHost.id, modelName, entitySetName, properties, headers);

 

var entityID = null;

var i=0;

for each (var item in entity){

    if(Owner == entity[i].properties.get("UserName"))  {

        entityID = i;

    }  

    System.log("User Name - " + entity[i].properties.get("UserName"));

    //System.log("User Name - " + entity[i].properties);

    //System.log(i);

    ++i;

}

 

if (entityID != null) {

    var updateEntity = entity[entityID];

    //Will delete entity////////////////////////////////Will delete entity////////////////////////////////Will delete entity///////////////////////

    var updated = vCACEntityManager.deleteModelEntityBySerializedKey(vCACHost.id, modelName, entitySetName, updateEntity.keyString, headers);

    System.log("Removed User Entity");

}

else {

    System.log("User Not Found");

}

  

 

 

 

This worked for our situation in a testing environment.  Use at your own risk.
