Click Commit.

Note:
When a user edits any role assigned to their account and commits the changes in System Manager, the user is logged out immediately and redirected to the login page of System Manager web console.

For example, if the user user@domain.com is logged into System Manager web console and edits one of the roles assigned to their account, the user is logged out of System Manager immediately and redirected to the login page of System Manager web console.

Note:
When a user edits a role in System Manager, all other users assigned to that role are logged out after their next action and redirected to the login page of System Manager web console.

For example, User 1 is assigned the System Admin role, while User 2 and User 3 are assigned the Test role. If User 1 edits the Test role, User 2 and User 3 are logged out after their next action and redirected to the login page of System Manager web console.
