Session

July 1999
Switch User
The Switch User command enables the next user to log into NMS, which
automatically logs the current user off. This command facilitates shift changes
without interrupting any tasks in progress.
To switch users, choose Switch User from the Session pull-down menu. A dialog
box appears asking you to confirm the switch.
Choose Yes or No. If you choose Yes, the Login Window appears.
If you choose No, the Login Window is not displayed, and the existing user
remains as the current user. All currently open application windows remain open.
See Chapter 3,
Start-Up
, for the login procedure. The new user’s name must be
entered before any window other than the Login window can be accessed. All
currently open application windows remain open.
NOTE:
The process of logging in as the new user to NMS also logs the current user
off. This means the new user’s privilege level now takes effect for the current
tasks.
Once the new user is successfully logged in to NMS, all active NMS tasks and
windows are informed of the change in users.
