Disabling and Enabling Connections

When you disable connections, the system prevents new users from logging on to the specified server or application. You can use the disable connections feature with the log out users feature. For example, you can disable logging on to an application, log out users logged on to the application, load metadata, and then enable connections to the application.

These options are available for user access:

  • Disable Connections - This option disables connections for all users, including the Administrator. No users are allowed to access the selected application.

  • Enable Connections for Admin Only - Application access is only allowed for the Administrator.

  • Enable Connections for All Users - Application access is allowed for all users.

To disable or enable user connections to an application or server:

  1. Select Navigate, then Administer, and then Consolidation Administration.
  2. Select Administration, then System, and then Manage.
  3. Take one of these actions:

    • Click Disable Connections, or select Actions, and then Disable Connections.

    • Click Enable Connections for Admin Only, or select Actions, and then Enable Connections for Admin Only.

    • Click Enable Connections for All Users, or select Actions, and then Enable Connections for All Users.

  4. To refresh the list of connections, click Refresh, or select Actions, and then Refresh.
