Setting Inactivity Suspensions for ACIDs

The INACTIVE control option can be set to suspend any ACID that has not been used for a long period of time. Security Administrators may specify that, after 0 to 255 days, an inactive ACID automatically be suspended. Inactivity is measured from the day that an ACID’s password expires. If CA Top Secret does not detect any activity for this ACID before the inactivity threshold is reached, the ACID is suspended. Note that changing the password is considered activity.

Note: A Security Administrator with ACID(MAINTAIN) authority and the appropriate scope can reactivate a suspended ACID by removing the SUSPEND attribute from the user.
