Kill users in ArcSDE 10.1

Question

Hi,

In other versions of ArcSDE you could kill users that were connected to database using the prompt command.
I understand that is not possible to do that any more in SDE 10.1, is that correct?

How do I kill the users, then, I need to make some changes to the database and it doesn't allow me because is been use for other users.

Thanks and best regards,

Diego Llamas

Hi Diego, How do I kill the users, then, I need to make some changes to the database and it doesn't allow me because is been use for other users.

At 10.1, ArcGIS Desktop has new ArcGIS tools to administer enterprise geodatabases within ArcCatalog. You can remove connections to the geodatabase with the Geodatabase Administration dialog > Connections tab.

Please review this help topic:

What's new for geodatabases in ArcGIS 10.1
(look under the section "View and remove connections from a geodatabase")

Hope this helps,
