Procedure

  1. Log in to the Metasys server or SCT with a Metasys Administrator account. On the Main screen, click Tools > Administrator. The Security Administration window appears.
  2. Select the Active Directory service user whose access to the Metasys system needs to be suspended.
  3. On the Edit menu, click Properties. The User Properties tab of the User Properties dialog box appears (see Figure 1).
  4. Select the Metasys Access Suspended check box.
    Note: If the Metasys Access Suspended check box is already selected, this user may have been disabled or deleted by Active Directory services. You can confirm this status by verifying that the Active Directory Account Disabled or Active Directory Account Deleted property (found on the Active Directory Properties sheet) is selected for the user. If the Active Directory service user's account is enabled again or re-added, you must manually clear the Metasys Access Suspended check box.
  5. Click OK.
    The Active Directory service user is prevented from logging in to the system. If the user is currently logged in, the Metasys system terminates the user’s session immediately. To re-enable Metasys system access for an Active Directory service user, clear the Metasys Access Suspended check box.
