By default, if the iConsole detects no user activity (such as running a search or auditing an event) for 20 minutes, it displays a warning that the current session is about to expire. Clicking Cancel enables you to reset the session timeout for a further 20 minutes. The warning message itself will timeout after 20 seconds if no action is taken and the user is redirected to the Reconnect screen.
The automatic session timeout ensures that disconnections are handled efficiently and ensures that hung sessions do not remain on the iConsole application server, where they can consume system resources.
For example, a session will fail to terminate correctly if a user quits the iConsole by clicking the browser Close button instead of clicking the Logoff button in the iConsole. If this happens, the session will persist on the application server. The automatic timeout ensures that the residual session left after clicking the Close button is eventually terminated when the timeout expires.
Note: The iConsole session timeout overrides any specified Microsoft IIS timeout.
To lengthen or shorten the automatic session timeout, or to adjust how long the session timeout warning is displayed, you need to modify values in the Web registry key on the front‑end Web server. Within this registry key, modify the following values:
Type: REG_DWORD
Data: Defaults to 20. Specifies how long (in seconds) the session timeout warning is displayed before the user is redirected to the Reconnect screen.
Type: REG_DWORD
Data: Defaults to 20. Specifies the session timeout (in minutes) for the iConsole. The timeout countdown begins as soon as the user logs on to a CMS and restarts each time CA DataMinder detects user activity. If the timeout expires and no user activity was detected, CA DataMinder terminates the current session and displays the iConsole Logon screen.
