Clearing a Locked Session

</h1>
<a name="wp1073956"> </a><p class="pBody">
If you have performed a DPVM task 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 DPVM pending database are discarded and the 
fabric lock is released.

</p>
<a name="wp1098394"> </a><h2 class="pHeading2">
Restrictions
</h2>
<a name="wp1096871"> </a><p class="pBody">
The DPVM pending database is only available in the volatile directory and is subject to being discarded 
if the switch is restarted.
