Demotion and Promotion of Your Permissions
NOTE: Use Promote
with care. If you promote
your permissions, be
aware that conflicts may
arise among multiple
users who have Read-
Write-All permission. For
example, administrative
changes you make may be
overwritten by another
user. If a user with Read-Write or Read-Write-All permission logs on
while another user with Read-Write or Read-Write-All permission is
logged on, the SA8220 "demotes" the later user’s permissions to
Read-only. A message displays informing the demoted user of the
fact, as shown below.
Demoted Notification
The demoted Read-Write-All user can restore his or her original
permission level by clicking Promote in the User tab. This button is
located in the Current Logon box at the tab’s lower left.
List of Logged-On Users
The right hand side of the "Current Logon" box at the bottom of the
Users tab displays a list of all currently logged on users, their log on
times, their permissions, and their log on method (either the
Command Line Interface or the GUI).
Logoff All Other Users
NOTE: Use Logoff All
Users with care, as it can
leave the system in an
ambiguous state. For
example, if a user is in the
process of performing a
Restore operation, and
another user logs them off
before the Restore
completes, the system is
left in an unknown state. Users with Read-Write-All permission can click Logoff All Users at
the Users tab’s lower right to end the sessions of all other users
currently logged on. This logs off all other administrative users from
the SA8220. Users logged on using the GUI who are logged off in this
manner will see the message shown below in their browser window.
