Session Inactivity Time Out

Determines when Content Manager OnDemand terminates sessions between inactive clients and the server. The default setting, Never Time Out, means that Content Manager OnDemand does not terminate a session, regardless of how long the client remains inactive. To set a specific inactivity time out, select Time Out In __ Minutes and enter the number of minutes in the space provided. The value can be from 1 (one) to 1440 (24 hours).

The period of inactivity is measured between requests to a server. For example, when a user enters a query, Content Manager OnDemand searches the database and builds the document list. This completes a request to the server. If the user does not work with the items in the document list, open another folder, or invoke another query before the inactivity timeout occurs, Content Manager OnDemand automatically terminates the session with the client.

Use caution when you set the inactivity time out. For example, assume that you set the inactivity time out to 10 (ten). You log on to Content Manager OnDemand to add an application group. Creating the application group takes you 15 minutes to complete. After entering all of the information about the application group, you click OK to create the application group. Content Manager OnDemand issues a message that shows a timeout has occurred. You must logoff the server, and you cannot save the information you entered about the application group.
