Hey,

does anyone know any best practice or clever way of removing orphaned Knowledge Objects in a Search Head cluster when it is already too late for reassignment?
For each orphaned object we are doing manual job like checking if AD accounts still exist, emailing the users and asking if they still need Splunk etc.
For non-existing accounts, we delete /opt/splunk/etc/users<user_id> catalogue from each SH separately (there are 4 SHs in our cluster), but we are looking for more clever solution

Unfortunately, there is no option in our case to be informed by the users that they are going to leave the company in order to react in advance and avoid orphaned KOs at all...

Greetings,
Justyna
