The GIS data administrator is unable to upgrade the geodatabase because editors have active sessions and are working on editing workflows.
Active connections lock the geodatabase, preventing upgrades or maintenance operations.
Solution:
Editors mustdisconnect from their active sessionto allow the geodatabase upgrade to proceed. Disconnecting ensures no locks are held on the database objects.
The administrator can also useGeodatabase Administration toolsto manually disconnect all users if necessary.(ArcGIS Documentation: Disconnect Users)
Alternative Options:
Option A:Reconcile and post edit versions is unnecessary as the issue is related to active database sessions, not data versioning.
Option C:Saving edits and stopping editing sessions alone does not close the database connection, leaving locks in place.
Therefore, editors mustdisconnect from their active sessionfor the geodatabase upgrade to proceed.
