Tracking Computers using the Dbase

[dwkrueger]

Are the Running Instances of OD being tracked in the DBase somewhere?

I am installing the provider allocator and would like to make sure no one is accessing the dbase during the update process. I could lock the tables but it seems to me the better way would have every instance of the OD program that starts log on and then we chould check to make sure these are closed down before running critical dbase manament methods.

I don't think it really is a good idea that other instances of OD could be running while the OD version is going from say 5.6 to 5.7. Or other mission critical events.

Is this already in place?

I know you keep track of the computers some where. Can you point me to the right area.

This is not yet tracked in the database. We've been planning to add that field to the computer table.
