Non-Administrator account used to install Dataminer got deleted, any impact?

We have a Dataminer system which was installed with an Administrator rights account, not the actual Administrator.  Now the Administrator (Installer) account used has been deleted from the server.

The system seems to still be functioning normally, however, will we run into any problems due to the Administrator (Installer) no longer being present?

Should we assign another user to the Administrator (installer) group?  Or should we re-add the previous Installer account and assign back to the Administrator (installer) group?

Hi Steve,

There is no need to keep the installer account, or installer group.

Do keep in mind that you need to ensure that at any given time, you have a user group (and a user in that group) that has sufficient rights to access and administer the system (in particular the security settings).
