Locking a NetBackupAdministration Console session manually

A NetBackup session locks automatically if it is left idle or inactive. A NetBackup Administration Console session can also be manually locked. For example, if a user has to temporarily leave and does not want to close the active session. The user must log in again to access the session.

Note:

The console is locked even when multiple dialog boxes are open.

    Alternatively, press Alt + K to lock the console.
