Disabling chat rooms

IBM® Sametime® administrators, folder managers, folder authors, and chat room owners can disable chat rooms. Disabling the chat room prevents users from entering it, posting new content or reading the chat history.

About this task

If you would rather prevent users from entering a chat room as well as automatically removing it from the All Chat Rooms view so that users can no longer see it, you should archive the chat room instead of disabling it.

Follow these steps to disable a chat room.

Procedure

In Sametime Advanced, click All Chat Rooms.
Click the name of the chat room that you want to archive.
Click More Actions > Disable.
When the confirmation message appears, click OK.
