rajeshkumar created the topic: revert the files of user access has been disabled<\/strong>
\nLong Back I had one questions to perforce support. Now it was in my archived email So sharing in forum, Hope this will help other members.<\/p>\n

Problem Area:
\nThere is one clientSpec called “ClientSpec1” and two user has opened a file in same clientspec “user1” and “user2”. Now we want to delete “user2” without deleted workspace. Also we can
\nnot impersonate user2 login e.g p4 -p PORT -u user2 -c ClientSpec1 -H host1 revert \/\/…
\nand then revert the files as user access has been disabled.<\/p>\n

Please suggest what should be done in this case to revert the files and delete the users.<\/p>\n

Solution:
\nThere are a few ways in which you could do this.<\/p>\n

Firstly, an admin should be able to log in as another user – so ‘p4 -u admin login user2’ would create the ticket without needing the password for ‘user2’.
\nOnce logged in, you should be able to impersonate this user and run ‘p4 revert -k’ for the files in question.
\nThis is covered in the following KB article.
\nkb.perforce.com\/article\/38\/reverting-another-users-files <\/p>\n

Alternatively, another user could take ownership of the files. Here’s an example:<\/p>\n

Users ‘rajesh’ and ‘kumar’ have each opened a file in workspace ‘temporary’.
\n>p4 opened -a \/\/depot\/test…
\n\/\/depot\/test.js#3 – edit default change (xtext) by rajesh@temporary
\n\/\/depot\/test2.js#2 – edit default change (text) by kumar@temporary<\/p>\n

I use the ‘reopen’ command to change the user:
\n>p4 -u adam -c temporary reopen \/\/depot\/test…
\n\/\/depot\/test.js#3 – reopened; user adam
\n\/\/depot\/test2.js#2 – reopened; user adam<\/p>\n

As these changes are now ‘mine’, I can revert them (noting the ‘-k’ flag here):
\n>p4 -u adam -c temporary revert -k \/\/depot\/test…
\n\/\/depot\/test.js#3 – was edit, cleared
\n\/\/depot\/test2.js#2 – was edit, cleared
\nRegards,
