Error description

  • On CQWeb environments with a CQWeb session time-out set to a
    higher value than the license-time out, CQ licenses
    corresponding to inactive session are only released after the
    CQWeb session time-out occurs and not after the (earlier)
    license time-out.
    For example, if the licenses are set to time-out after 30
    minutes and the CQWeb session is set to time-out after 90
    minutes, if a user logs in to CQWeb and does not do anything
    else, the license is only released after 90 minutes, instead of
    the expected 30 minutes.

    * If the ClearQuest Web session time-out is set to a higher    *

    * Web sessions are only released when the CQ session time-out  *

Problem conclusion

  • A fix is available in ClearQuest 8.0.1.12 and 9.0.0.2
    Rational Common Licensing has been fixed so that inactive
    ClearQuest Web sessions are now released correctly according the
    the license time-out value as opposed to the higher web session
    time-out value.
