Hi All,

I'm using 10.2b

Does any one know if theres any good gui interface that does what promon does? cause it can be a bit of pain for us.


cheers
 
LOL @ Tom.

If this is a numbers issue, i.e. it's awkward to kick large numbers of users at once in promon, then I would ask why you need to do that. Maybe that's the real problem you need to solve. But without more info I'm just guessing.
 
OpenEdge Management will allow you to disconnect users graphically - see the Operational view 'User Activity':

Note that you do need OpenEdge Management, on OpenEdge Explorer (the stripped down version of OEM) the view is grayed out.

Yeah Quite a few users and also sometimes ppl trying to do the kicking dont have the permissions to do so we kind of want to set something up so the customer IT team can take care of it. I think some hit there user limit quite often.. yes they should upgrade their database but it all comes down to cash..

Thanks for the OpenEdge Explorer option though the customer that has the issue the most has progress Explorer on
 
I would be wary of letting DB-ignorant IT people loose with the ability to boot DB users; a little knowledge is dangerous. Doubly so if the users are self-service.

Also, I still don't understand why you need to forcibly disconnect users in the first place. Are they running the app and then going on vacation? Are they losing their network connection and having their client crash, but the socket remains in established state on the server side? Are they running multiple concurrent instances of the client app when they should only run one?
 
Is the application missing a QUIT or the like at the very end and therefore staying open even though it looks closed?! :/
 
you are correct about not letting users do that.. i got the wrong end of the stick.. that gui interface within openEdge Explorer will be great thanks.
