Administrator Session (Admin Session)

Administrator session is created to ensure that only one authenticated user can use and change
the different parameters in the system and the SQL server. When an Admin Session is started by
a user, other users will be blocked from accessing the ESO pages.

Before using ESO, make sure to start an Admin Session by clicking on the Enter Admin Session
button (

) on the top left corner of the page. This will start an exclusive session for the

current SMH user that will last for 30 minutes by default . The session time limit may be extended

back to full 30 minutes by clicking on the Extend Session button (

). The number of minutes

remaining in the current session will be shown at the Time Left field. If the value of time left reaches
0 minute, an Admin Session need to be started again to continue working on ESO. A “In Admin
Session” message indicates that an Admin Session is currently active.

If an Admin Session has not been started, the system will display detailed steps for starting a
session, as shown below.
