A repository session is opened when an end user or application establishes a connection to a server. Each repository session has a unique ID.

During any single API session, an external application can have multiple repository sessions, each with a different repository or server or both.

A repository session is terminated when the end user explicitly disconnects from the repository or the application terminates.

You can use Documentum Administrator to monitor repository sessions only. It cannot monitor any other sessions (for example, eConnector for JDBC sessions).

The Sessions page lists sessions in the current repository. For each session, the name, Documentum Session ID, Database Session ID, Client Host, Start Time, time Last Used, and State are displayed. To view all sessions or user sessions, make a selection from the drop-down list. To view a different number of sessions, select a new number from the Show Items drop-down list. To view the next page of sessions, click the > button. To view the previous page of sessions, click the < button. To jump to the first page of sessions, click the << button. To jump to the last page, click >>.
