Can't remove db_accessadmin securable from a domain user group

  • One of our developers mistakenly added the db_accessadmin securable to the group DOMAIN\Utility_Users in one of our user databases. I want to delete this securable but can't seem to find a way to do that. When I try to find out who is a member of the db_accessadmin role using exec sp_helprolemember [db_accessadmin], I don't get any rows, which implies that no one in that database is a member of that role. When I to find out the group's default schema using sp_helpuser DOMAIN\Utility_Users, the DefSchemaName is Null.

    All I want to do is delete this securable from the user group DOMAIN\Utility_Users. Any great ideas?

  • Well I've figured it out. You have to use the REVOKE SCHEMA command. This is what I ran that deleted the db_accessadmin securable:

    revoke delete on SCHEMA::db_accessadmin from \DOMAIN\UTILITYROLL_USERS

    revoke EXECUTE on SCHEMA::db_accessadmin from \DOMAIN\UTILITYROLL_USERS

    revoke INSERT on SCHEMA::db_accessadmin from \DOMAIN\UTILITYROLL_USERS

    revoke SELECT on SCHEMA::db_accessadmin from \DOMAIN\UTILITYROLL_USERS

    revoke UPDATE on SCHEMA::db_accessadmin from \DOMAIN\UTILITYROLL_USERS
