To override a configuration lock in the Gaia Portal: The other user stays logged in with Read-Only access. If a different user already has the configuration lock, you have the option to override their lock. When you log in and no other user has Read/Write access, you get an exclusive configuration lock with Read/Write access. All other users can log in with Read-Only access to see configuration settings, as specified by their assigned roles. Only one user can have Read/Write access to Gaia configuration settings at a time. The lock remains in effect until a different user removes the lock, or the defined inactivity time-out period expires (default is 10 minutes). This is because the configuration lock stays in effect even when you close the web browser or terminal window. Make sure that you always log out from the Gaia Portal (in the top right corner) before you close the web browser. Note - The browser Back button is not supported.
