Crash Recovery

Use this utility to clear user sessions for all users except the user running this utility, unlock all locked functions and journals, and clear two DC parameters. You would most commonly need to run this utility following a crash of the utility server, but you can run it anytime.

You do not need to run this utility following a database server crash. The functions of this utility are performed automatically when the database server is rebooted.

Note:  Any users still logged in are kicked out of the system when you run this utility. DO NOT run this utility against a database that is still being accessed by users.

If you need to perform crash recovery for individual users, go to these forms:

  • Session Management
  • Unlock Locked Functions
  • Unlock Locked Journals
