Timeout

Use the Timeout section to specify user and remote connection timeouts.

User Timeout

If a user is idle for the number of minutes set, the session will be automatically terminated.

Remote Connection Timeout

This is the connection timeout used when CA OM Web Viewer is communicating with the Mainframe repository systems through CA DRAS. This setting specifies how long CA OM Web Viewer should wait for a slow responding Mainframe or Repository or CA CCI connection before generating a timeout message.

Follow these steps to set timeout values:

1. From the Administration tab, click the Preferences subtab:
2. Click the General Preferences link.
3. In the Timeout section, set the options as follows:
   1. Locate the Logoff User After option and
   2. Enter the number of minutes that can lapse.

      The user will be logged out of CA OM Web Viewer after this many minutes of idle time.

   3. Locate the Remote Connection Timeout option.
   4. Enter the number of seconds that can lapse.

      CA OM Web Viewer-to-mainframe connection will be timed out after this many seconds.

4. Click Update at the top right of the pane.

   The timeout values are updated.
