The request must contain a date for deactivation and indicate if the deactivation is temporary or permanent. In case of emergency, accounts will be deactivated on verbal request by the Departmental Resource Person , but will not be scheduled for removal until the removal is approved by the department head. Emergency deactivation requests should be the exception, not the rule. It is the intent of LAN Technologies that temporary deactivations be the exception, not the rule and normally for extended periods of time. Reactivation of temporarily disabled accounts require notification from the Departmental Resource Person of the department.
Permanent deactivation is used when staff members are no longer associated with the department.
At the time of the deactivation of the account, the Departmental Resource Person will be granted access to the personal home directory of the employee for a period of one week for file reclamation. At the end of that week, the client's account and home directory will be removed. One account will be supplied for each staff member in the participating departments. The DRP for each department will handle requests for account activations and deactivations. When a client uses an insecure password, he or she will be asked to change it.
