Sessions recorded prior to joining the Safeguard Sessions Appliances are available for playback from local storage and in accordance with the permissions of the Safeguard Passwords Appliance. When a backup is created, the state of the sessions module is saved which can be either the embedded sessions module (SPP) or the joined sessions module (SPS). Restoring a backup restores the sessions module to the state when the backup was taken, regardless of the state when the restore was started.
Once a Safeguard for Privileged Passwords (SPP) cluster node has been configured to use the Safeguard Sessions Appliance, it can only be reversed by a factory reset of the Safeguard Passwords Appliance. The factory reset redeploys the Safeguard Passwords Appliance session module. For more information, see Factory Reset from the desktop client.
Another way to reverse the join to Safeguard for Privileged Sessions is to restore a backup that was taken before the first join of Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS).
