Aggregation Session Inspector(4.2)
- Jenni Wallin
The Aggregation Session Inspector enables viewing and editing of existing sessions. The data is displayed in a table where each row represents a session, with the session data ordered in columns. It is also possible to edit the contents of the sessions, that is, to change the timeout and the values of the session variables.
Note!
Aggregation Session Inspector only inspects sessions stored on disk and SQL.
Â
Note!
To use the Aggregation Session Inspector, the EC specified as the Storage Host in the Storage tab of the Aggregation profile configuration must be up and running.
Searching for sessions
Initially, the table is empty and must be populated with data using the Search Session dialog. When you select the Search button, the Search Sessions dialog opens where you can select which group of sessions you want to view.
