Logging off mass users

[Former Member]

Hello experts:

Is there a transaction or any way to kill users or end users sessions from one screen. I know that you can view users from SM04 or AL08 but these screens don't allow you to end users sessions.

Another way I have been killing or ending user sessions is by logging on to the production server using AL08 to see who is logged on under active instance. Than log on to the dialog servers using BRGUI using transaction SM04 and logging the user off. But I want to do this from one transaction and one screen.

Thanks for your help have a great weekend.

Keep in Mind

1. Better to stop the application server instead of killing the users.

2. After you restart the app servers, check in SM13 for any pending updates, failures...etc . Notify the respective users

Hi. The best way go to sm02 and create the message like : The server are shutdown after 30 min, please all users log of on this time. After 30 min shutdown the instance. Regards.

Such transaction is not existing - and in fact, I personally would never do that. You don´t know what the users are exactly doing and you will hardly interrupt their processing...

If it´s just one instance, why not shut it simply down?
