Problem conclusion

  • A regression was introduced in which the IBM Spectrum Protect
    Plus User Interface (UI) did not use the Inactivity Timeout
    Global Preference as the basis for timing out a UI user session.
    This regression has been resolved, which times out the user
    according to the configured Inactivity Timeout Global
    Preference.
