> # Clearing a Locked Session

> If you have changed the RSCN timer configuration and have forgotten to release the lock by either committing or discarding the changes, an administrator can release the lock from any switch in the fabric. If the administrator performs this task, your changes to the pending database are discarded and the fabric lock is released.

> Tip The pending database is only available in the volatile directory and are subject to being discarded if the switch is restarted.
