Changing Session Timeout Value

To change the session timeout value:

  1. Login or switch to the Brains user.

  2. Open the file /var/lib/brains/.brainspace/brainspace.properties.

    Note

    Create this file if it does not exist.

  3. Create/edit the inactive.session.timeout= property (in minutes), and then change the value.

  4. Restart the services, as the root user, by running systemctl restart brainspace-platform.

    Note

    Restarting services requires you be user root.

    Note

    Users will need to login after changes are made and Tomcat is restarted.

    Important

    Please remember making this idle session timeout value greater than 15 minutes (which is the default) is not recommended due to security concerns.
