Using the Admin Panel
The Administration page shows up for admins and the owner. It has four panels: Server Management, User Management, Device Management and the Console.
Server settings
The left of Server Management is a live editor for serverconfig.conf. Saving writes the file and updates the running server, so every change takes effect immediately for every client that connects. No restart.
| Section | Settings |
|---|---|
| Identity | Organization name, timezone. The name is what shows next to the globe in everyone's menu bar. |
| Network | Client port and web access port. |
| Limits | Max devices per user, and the online window in seconds that decides who reads as online. |
| Scope | Who can see the members list and who can see availability. |
| Naming | Whether cross-OS-safe file names are enforced, and how long staged uploads survive. |
| Invite codes | Turn project invite codes off entirely. |
| Visibility | Enable organization features, and hide the owner account from the user list. |
Projects and invite codes
Server Management also manages projects and the members within them: create one, delete one, and handle its codes. Each project has a permanent code you can switch on or off and a temporary code you can regenerate whenever you want to cut off whoever has the old one.
Users and roles
User Management lists every account with its role.
| Role | Can do |
|---|---|
| Member | Normal work: their own projects, their own devices. |
| Admin | Everything a member can, plus the Administration page, user management and force-unlock. |
| Owner | Everything. The role is fixed — it cannot be changed from here, including by the owner. |
Disabling a user drops their sessions and keeps the handle reserved; adding that handle again reinstates the account rather than creating a second one. You cannot disable the owner or yourself.
Devices
Device Management lists registered devices and what each one currently holds. Removing a device releases its locks and invalidates its session, which is the clean fix for a lost laptop that is holding the rig file hostage.
Force-unlocking
A stale lock that its holder cannot release — wrong machine, someone on leave — comes off with a force unlock, from the file tree's context menu or the CLI:
cambium unlock -f //Assets/player.fbxThe -f is mandatory; without it the command refuses. The holder's client notices and tells them it happened, rather than letting them find out at submit time.
Shutting the server down
Server Management has a Shutdown button. It stops the process cleanly and that is all it does — the server will not come back on its own unless you have a restart policy or a service unit that brings it back. It is a way to cycle the process or to apply a port change.
