When you disconnect a connection from a system, a warning may appear, depending on the status and usage of the active connection. The following table shows the delete processing and warning messages that may appear in the warning message box. The possible situations are listed in order of precedence, highest to lowest. If more than one situation applies, the message box and operation for the situation listed highest in the table is used. See Deleting a Connection for details about deleting a connection.
Table: Delete Connection Warnings and Operation

Connection Type |
Connection in Use By: |
Message Box Text (Title: Delete Connection) |
Operation Result: |
|
Any |
DB Programminga |
<connection name> is in use by DB Programming or a Scheduled Backup. Before you delete the <connection name> connection, you must terminate the DB Programming session or wait for the backup to complete. (Delete anyway / Cancel) |
The connection is closed and deleted. Monitoring stops. DB Programming and any other applications are left running, their links go down. |
|
Modem or Remote Configuration |
Another application |
<connection name> is a [modem/remote configuration] connection, which may be in use by the following: <list>b Are you sure you want to delete the <connection name> connection? (Delete / Cancel) |
The connection is closed and deleted. Monitoring stops. Other applications are left running, but their links go down. |
|

System Administration & Diagnostics (for example, currently connected) |
<connection name> is currently connected. Are you sure you want to delete the <connection name> connection? (Delete / Cancel) |
The connection is closed and deleted. Monitoring stops. |

a. Because DB Programming may be in the middle of performing a Scheduled Backup or processing a restore or other update, the System Administration & Diagnostics application does not blindly force it to terminate. Verify that DB Programming is not busy, and then end the session or wait for the backup to complete.
b. The list of applications that may be using the connection may include one or more of the following: AWS Web page, SSH connection, and Diagnostics Monitor. System Administration & Diagnostics checks for these applications at least as reliably as DB Programming did in versions 3.0 through 3.2. If applications other than those listed are using the connection, they may not be detected. Also if the AWS Web page is open for any 5000 CP, because the IP address is not internally visible to System Administration & Diagnostics, it is listed as an application possibly using the connection.
