How To Set a Time Limit for User Login Sessions on the HVR Web User Interface

Question

How can I limit how long users can stay active on the user interface?

Environment

• HVR Hub
• HVR Agent

Answer

The default login session expiration time is one week. You can change this by defining the repository property Hub_Server_Login_Expiration.

Use the hvrreposconfig command to define this property. For example, to set the login session expiration time to two weeks, use:

hvrreposconfig Hub_Server_Login_Expiration=2w

You can also use other time formats, such as s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours), and d (days) in this command.

• The login session will expire (time-out) after the configured time, regardless of whether a user is active or inactive (idle).
• The minimum time limit that can be set is 900 seconds (15 minutes).
