Simultaneous work on an Airlock Gateway configuration by two or more administrators is supported for Configuration Center and Airlock Gateway REST API access. This is also true for mixed access.
- ●Working on a configuration means working on a working copy of a configuration. Simultaneous modification, therefore, means that in reality more than one working copy of a configuration is currently being edited - one per administrator session.
Requirements and limitations
- ●Merging is only possible with configurations generated on Gateway versions Airlock Gateway 7.5 and later.
- ●Merging may fail in case of conflicting modifications.
Available merge options
The configuration merge functionality is offered in case a new configuration has been activated in the meantime during your session when you try to activate your changes.
- The functionality allows either to:
- ●cancel
- ●overwrite the currently active configuration
- ●or merge your modifications into the currently active configuration.
In the Configuration Center, the options are presented in the configuration merge dialog:
The Airlock Gateway REST API offers an equivalent set of options via the option.autoMerge attribute.
