Session timeout syntax

You can specify a session timeout when you create a user or group. You can also alter the session timeout of a user or a group. Specify the timeout in minutes.

Changes to the session timeout for the public group do not affect the admin user's settings.

    CREATE USER username WITH SESSIONTIMEOUT [number | UNLIMITED]
  • To create a group with a session timeout, use the following syntax:
    CREATE GROUP name WITH SESSIONTIMEOUT [number | UNLIMITED]
  • To modify a user's session timeout, use the following syntax:
    ALTER USER username WITH SESSIONTIMEOUT [number | UNLIMITED]
