This is the default FortiManager operation.

Administrators are able to make configuration changes on the FortiManager without locking an ADOM or creating a session.

Administrators are not restricted from concurrently making changes to the same devices, policies or objects which can cause conflicts to occur in environments where many administrators may be working in the same ADOM or on the same policies.

Workspace mode enables locking ADOMs, devices, or policy packages so that an administrator can prevent other administrators from making changes to the elements that they are working in.

In workspace mode, ADOMs, or individual devices or policy packages must be locked before policy, object, or device changes can be made.

Multiple administrators can lock different devices and policy packages within a single, unlocked ADOM at the same time.

When an individual device or policy package is locked, other administrators can only lock the ADOM that contains the locked device or policy package by disconnecting the administrator that locked it.

In workspace mode, the ADOM must be locked before changes can be made in AP Manager, FortiClient Manager, VPN Manager, and FortiSwitch Manager, and some settings in System Settings.

See Workspace mode.

Workspace mode (Per-ADOM) allows you to set the workspace mode settings on a per-ADOM basis.

When this option is enabled, you can select a workspace mode to apply to the ADOM in the ADOM's settings. See Configure workspace mode settings.

For example, you can set ADOM1 to Workspace, ADOM2 to Workflow, and ADOM3 to Disable.
