| Note |
|---|
EDR assigns each asset a unique ID. Since uninstallation requires an uninstall code for each unique machine ID, administrators cannot perform a fleet uninstallation of EDR. Visibility of the Get Uninstall Code is permission based, so if you cannot acquire the uninstall code, see your Administrator. |

Fleet Management
Users looking to deploy EDR at scale can use the Armor Toolbox to schedule installation of EDR on multiple machines simultaneously. The Armor Toolbox is a self-service solution available to users in the AMP.
Users can learn more about scheduling installation tasks in the Armor Toolbox documentation.
Carbon Black User Roles
During EDR sign-up, a user is elected to be the Admin user for the Carbon Black account. That Admin user is configured as in the Carbon Black portal as Super Admin. The Super Admin user will have all privileges to perform within the Carbon Black portal. Users must be careful which actions are performed in the portal and be mindful of privileges that are granted to other users. | Note |

| AMP users with Carbon Black user accounts will have their Carbon Black accounts deleted automatically if their AMP user account is deleted. If a user is added back to AMP, the Carbon Black admin will need to add that user to Carbon Black manually. |
