Hi Hans Chr. Thanks for the feedback on your experience with Operations Center. I understand your frustration and would be frustrated in your shoes also.

An update for everyone... Success I used CANCEL SESSION and it worked. Didn't have to go so far as LOCK NODE. I created a schedule via DEFINE CLIENTACTION. As soon as I saw the first connection come up, I cancelled that session. Act log reported the session was cancelled by administrator.

I'd not tried to DISABLE SESSIONS. It seems the node side COMM settings would continue to reconnect every 15 seconds (default) for the 60 minute (default) period. I can't keep DISABLE SESSIONS in place for that long. Since I can't get Admin Center to let me create an option set with COMMR

In my experience, you can only LOCK the node if it isn't active/connected. The automatic restarts/reconnects are part of the clients ability to handle communications problems. I would first DISABLE SESSIONS on the server and then LOCK the node and then ENABLE SESSIONS On Tue, Feb 10, 2015 at 11:2

The re-established connections probably occur because the scheduled backup event is still active. Take a look at the schedule duration and make sure that it expires before undesirable hours. For example: Let's say you have a schedule for 5:00am and a duration of 6 hours. You notice it is still r
