Command 'dcv close-connection not working

Question

I am trying to disconnect a single user from a dcv server session called 'dcvusersession'.
I try to do this using the command `dcv close-connection dcvusersession` but to no avail. The server responds with:
`Error: no session ID specified`.
In general, anything I add after the close-connection command makes no difference. I tried the userId, the integer of the session Id but nothing worked. Is this a bug. 
Unfortunately this command is not documented in the online documentation here.

The used DCV Server Version is 2022.2.13907-1, I couldn't find anything in the release notes on that topic however.

Thanks and kind regards, Julian

Hi Julian,

can you show the session with (maybe you need to be root if not the same user)

dcv list-sessions

Are you trying to close the connection running the command as the same user owning the session or the root user?

Here is the docu: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dcv/latest/adminguide/managing-sessions-lifecycle-stop.html
