Deleting roles

We can delete roles that allow users to use managed resources, depending on their membership in the role.

We cannot delete a role that has user members or child roles. We must remove all of the user members and child roles from the role before you can delete the role.

We cannot delete a static role that has membership in a policy, such as a provisioning or separation of duty policy. We must first remove the static role from the policy.
