“In Use” Monitor

The Insignia Library System allows staff to see who is using the library system and which module they are using. This allows the librarian to warn those using the system to log off before using the restore function.

The Insignia Library System is a true multi-user client server application. This means that it will not allow two users to modify the same record at same time. This is achieved by locking the record for the first user. It is possible that the user’s machine could crash (without releasing the lock). If this happens, then no one else can edit that record. By using the “In Use” monitor, staff can see who is using the module and can remove the lock.

To see who is using the Insignia Library System, follow these steps:

1. 
   Click on “Administration” on the Navigator Toolbar.
   
2. 
   Click on “In Use” on the Navigator Toolbar.
   
3. 
   Select the desired module from the dropdown list.
   
4. 
   To unlock a given record, select the record and click on “Unlock”.
   
5. 
   If you want to see who is logged into the Insignia Library System, select “Current Users” from the dropdown list.
