Enabling concurrent logins for a single user

By default, Dashboard Application Services Hub does not permit multiple logins for a single user. However, you can enable concurrent logins from different computers by modifying the Dashboard Application Services Hub configuration.

About this task

Concurrent logins to the same computer are not supported. When logging in multiple times from the same computer, either as the same user or a different user, the same browser session is used. The contents of the most recently updated browser window or tab are displayed in all other browser windows or tabs.

You can edit the consoleProperties.xml file to enable concurrent logins for a single user.

Procedure

  1. Open the following configuration file in a text editor:
    DASH_location/profile/config/cells/JazzSMNode01Cell/applications/isc.ear/deployments/isc/isclite.war/WEB-INF/consoleProperties.xml
    Where <DASH_location> is the directory where Dashboard Application Services Hub is installed.
  2. Locate the ENABLE.CONCURRENT.LOGIN property and change the value from false to true. For example:
    <consoleproperties:console-property id="ENABLE.CONCURRENT.LOGIN" value="true" />
  3. Save the modified configuration file and restart the Dashboard Application Services Hub server. To stop and start the Dashboard Application Services Hub server, enter the following commands:
    stopServer server1 -username <DASH_admin_user> -password <DASH_admin_password>
    startServer server1 -username <DASH_admin_user> -password <DASH_admin_password>

Results

When concurrent logins are enabled, you can log in to the Dashboard Application Services Hub with the same user ID from different computers.
