10.3 Web Interface Session Timeout

A user session in the PlateSpin Transformation Manager Web Interface times out by default after 30 minutes of browser inactivity. The Web Interface Session Timeout interval is configurable with the tm.session.timeout.minutes property in the /opt/microfocus/ps_transform_mgr/config/system.properties file. If the property is not specified in this file, the session timeout defaults to 30 minutes.

  1. Enable the SSH service on the Appliance VM.

    See Section 12.4.4, Enabling or Disabling the SSH Service.

  2. Start an SSH session with the Appliance VM, then log in as the vaadmin user or root user.

  3. Navigate to the /opt/microfocus/ps_transform_mgr/config/ directory.

  4. Open the system.properties file in a text editor.

  5. Add the tm.session.timeout.minutes property and specify the value in minutes to set the interval of browser inactivity to allow before a Web Interface session times out.

  6. Save the file and close the text editor.

  7. Restart the PlateSpin Transformation Manager service to allow the Web Interface Session Timeout value to take effect.

    In your SSH session, enter the following at a terminal console:

    rcps_transform_mgr restart
  8. Exit your SSH session.

  9. (Optional) Disable the SSH service on the Appliance VM.

    See Section 12.4.4, Enabling or Disabling the SSH Service.
