Configure Timeout

After upgrading to a newer version of Operations Hub, configure these timeout settings.

Operations Hub Session Timeout

Access the web.xml file from these locations, and update the code as follows:

  • C:\Program Files\GE\Operations Hub\iqp-tomcat\conf
  • C:\Program Files\GE\Operations Hub\iqp-tomcat\webapps\app\WEB-INF
  • C:\Program Files\GE\Operations Hub\iqp-tomcat\webapps\site\WEB-INF
<session-config>
          <session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
   </session-config>

The default value for SESSION_DESTROY_TIMEOUT is 1 hour. Whenever you set the session timeout greater than 1 hour in web.xml, add an environment variable SESSION_DESTROY_TIMEOUT with value session_timeout_in_millisec + 10 minutes in millisec. For example, if you set 2 hours as session timeout, then set it as 130 * 60 * 1000 = 7800000.

Note: Restart IQP tomcat whenever you change the environment variable value.

UAA Token Timeout

Access the web.xml file from C:\ProgramFiles\GE\Operations Hub\uaa-tomcat\conf, and update the code as follows:

  • <session-config>
          <session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
   </session-config>


Note:
  1. session-timeout and cookie max-age must be in sync.
  2. session-timeout is measured in minutes, whereas cookie-config is measured in seconds.
  3. Any manual configuration changes, including changes for timeouts, are overwritten on upgrade.
