Stuck in Read Mode

Hi,

I'm having a problem where I'm stuck in read only mode (using admin account). As far as I can tell there is only the one active session running.  How can I change to RW mode?

Sounds like a Full HA configuration (management + gateway on each cluster member).
When you connect via SmartConsole to the member that is not active, it will be Read Only.
This is by design as configuration changes can only be made on the active member.

SmartConsole? Which product? Version?

Smartconsole R81.  We have half way solved the problem. This is a set of redundant firewalls. Seems that whichever FW we logged into it got set into standby mode, hence read only. If we logged into the other firewall that got changed over to standby (read mode) automatically.
Shutting down one of the firewalls solved the problem.
