Enabling log out and time out settings in IBM i2 Intelligence Analysis Platform

Question & Answer


Question

By default, IBM i2 Intelligence Analysis Platform does not have a log out option in the user interface and the session will not time out either. In this technote you will find the necessary information to activate these settings in your deployment.

Answer

To enable log out and/or time out settings in IBM i2 Intelligence Analysis Platform:

  1. Go to <IAP-folder>\IAP-Deployment-Toolkit\configuration\fragments\core
  2. Open the ApolloClientSettings.xml
  3. To enable the log out button change the false value to true:

    <!-- Determines whether the ability to log out is active. --> <EnableLogout>false</EnableLogout>

  4. To update the idle time before the user is logged out change the IdleLogoutMinutes value from 0 to a desired value:

    <!-- The idle time in minutes after which the end user is logged out. A value of 0 indicates that this option is disabled. -->
    <IdleLogoutMinutes>0</IdleLogoutMinutes>


  5. To update the idle time before the user is alerted that is going to be logged out change the AlertBeforeIdleLogoutMinutes value:

    <!-- The time in minutes the end user is alerted prior to being logged out due to inactivity. A value of 0 indicates that this option is disabled. -->
    <AlertBeforeIdleLogoutMinutes>2</AlertBeforeIdleLogoutMinutes>

  6. Run setup -t StopLiberty to stop the application server.
  7. Run setup -t deploy to redeploy the Intelligence Analysis Platform in its new configuration.
  8. Run setup -t startLibery to stop the application server.
  9. The Portal will now have the new settings enabled.
