Displaying the Active Configuration Sessions

Before you start a configuration session, you might want to check to see if there are other configuration
sessions in progress. More than one user can open a target configuration session at a time, allowing
multiple users to work on separate target configurations.
The procedure for viewing the active configuration sessions depends on the type of configuration
session. For administration configuration sessions, which assign hardware components in SDRs and
multishelf systems, you must be in administration EXEC mode to view the active administration
configuration sessions. For SDR configuration sessions, you must be in EXEC mode to view the active
SDR configuration sessions.
To view the active administration configuration sessions, connect to the DSC and enter the show
configuration sessions command in administration EXEC mode, as shown in the following example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:CRS-8_P1# admin
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:CRS-8_P1(admin)# show configuration sessions
Session
00000201-002180dd-00000000
To view the active SDR configuration sessions, connect to the appropriate SDR and enter the show
configuration sessions command in EXEC mode, as shown in the following example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# show configuration sessions
Session
00000201-002180dd-00000000
00000201-001b307a-00000000
If an asterisk (*) appears in the Lock column, the user is using an exclusive configuration session and
you cannot start a configuration session until the exclusive configuration session is closed. For more
information, see the
Configuration sessions for the administration configuration and each SDR are managed independently.
Note
For example, if a user locks the administration configuration, you can still configure an SDR if other
users have not locked a configuration session for that SDR.
