Managing Network Plans 59

To delete a network plan

1In the main 3WXM window, select File > Delete Network Plan. The Delete Network Plan wizard appears.

2Select the network plan you want to delete from the list.

3Click Next. The network plan is deleted.

4Click Finish.

Sharing a Network Since the 3WXM plan repository resides on a networked server (the host Plan running 3WXM Services), you can easily share access to network plans

among hosts running the 3WXM client.

When you make changes to a network plan, 3WXM locks the part of the plan you are modifying. Other 3WXM clients can still open the network plan, but the lock prevents the other clients from modifying the part of the plan you are already modifying. The lock remains in effect until your modification is saved. 3WXM then removes the lock.

When a user with an administrator or provision account tries to access a part of a plan that is already locked by another user, 3WXM displays the Lock Info page. The Lock Info page indicates who has locked the network plan. You can optionally override the user’s lock. Note that only a user with Administrator privileges can override another user’s lock.

To override another user’s lock

1Select Tools > 3WXM Services Lock Management. The 3WXM Services Lock Management dialog box appears.

2Select the lock you want to delete and click on Delete Lock. (Only an Administrator can delete a lock.)

3A message is displayed indicating that the user whose lock you selected will not be able to save their changes when you delete their lock. Click Yes to confirm that you want to do this.

If you override the lock, 3WXM unlocks the part of the plan that was locked, and notifies the other 3WXM users about the lock change. From this point on, the former lock holder cannot save changes to the previously locked portion of the plan.

By default, 3WXM sends a message to all users who have the plan open with monitor access to inform them when changes are saved to the plan. In addition, 3WXM sends a message to each monitor user, so that one of them can then edit the plan.
