View the Server Configuration

When JAAS is not configured in Central Administration, all users access the web interface using the same administrative credentials. As a result, if a user locks and edits the configuration, any other user can see and modify the edited configuration.

If JAAS is configured, all users can view the current configuration settings for an EMS server, although only administrators can edit the server’s settings. If a configuration is locked, only the user with the lock sees the changes in progress. All other users see the current "snapshot" of the deployed EMS server.
