Forcing an Administrator to Log Out
90
Home Domain—The name of the domain in which the administrator was created.
Admin Name—The name of the administrator who is logged in.
Status—Whether a user has been active in the last 5 minutes). When the administrator's
status becomes inactive, NSM sends an update to the server at 1-minute intervals. This
update automatically refreshes the screen with the new information. When the
administrator become active again, NSM sends another update to the server that the
status has changed.
IP Address—The administrator's IP address.
Locked Object—A detailed list about the objects locked by each administrator listed.
These locked objects include object identifiers, length of time the object is locked, the
lock type, and so on.
Using this information, system administrators can monitor and manage users more
effectively.
Access to this feature is granted only to system administrators and read-only
administrators. You can access this information from the Tools menu by selecting the
Logged In Administrators menu item. By default, this activity is assigned to the predefined
system administrator role.
As of Release 2007.3, the system administrator can forcibly log out an administrator.
To log out an administrator forcibly:
From the menu bar, click Tools > Logged In Administrators. A list of logged-in
1.
administrators appears.
Right-click the name of the administrator to be logged out under the Admin Name
2.
column. The Logout button appears.
Click Logout to forcibly log out the administrator.
3.
The logged out administrator sees the Session Logged Out dialog box. After the
administrator clicks OK, the dialog box disappears.
By default, this activity is assigned to the system administrator. Custom roles can be
created in the NSM installation with this activity enabled. The Audit log shows which
system administrator logged out which administrator.
When the administrator is forcibly logged out, the following rules apply:
Any objects that were locked by the administrator during the login session are unlocked.
The server operations triggered by the logged-out GUI (Jobs, Reports, Log-Viewer, and
so on) run to completion in the server.
An administrator cannot forcibly log out from his own session.
