Auto Logout

Hi Expert!
I have been set the rdisp/gui_auto_logout for the 20 minutes to kill the idle sessions, rdisp/keepalive already set to 20 minutes.
My users are complaining that when they are doing the foreground / background processing, users sessions are terminating on certain time.
Does the session will kill also on the foreground / background processing ?
I want to eliminate those sessions which are idle not to foreground processing !
Please adivse the expert solution.
REgards

Hi
I have been set the RDISP/GUI_AUTO_LOGOUT parameter for the 20 minutes.
Now, the idle users sessions are terminating in 20 minutes.
the question is here that when our HR / FI Department executing the Posting / processing which takes longer time to finish, the foreground processing sessions are terminating.
This paramater was resetting the Idle connections, how will i eliminate this situation not to terminate the foreground processing sessions.
Please advise us.

Auto Logout when idle not working for transaction iview

Hi,
When we open an SAP system using transaction iview and if the screen is idle for 30 mins, auto logout doesn't seem to be work.
We have verified that rdisp/gui_auto_logout parameter is set to 1800 i.e., 30 min. which a default value. Do we have to activate this service or its activated by default? Let me know if any other parameter needs to be configured.
Also, is there a way to detect multiple sessions when SAP transaction is executed like the way SAP Logon pad detects when user has logged in into SAP system on different PC?
We are using NW portal 7.01 and IE 7.

Hi
the param icm/keep_alive_timeout does only that if within this time interval new data arrives over the network from the partner, the ICM attempts to keep the connection open once it has been established. If, for the existing connection, there is no further communication within the specified time period, the ICM terminates the connection. and this is a static param so if u change this it needs a sys restart and the param rdisp/plugin_auto_logout is also dependent on the above param as then it delets only the user context after the time period is reached not the work process context and the param login/disable_multi_gui_login works only for dialog log ins not for prta and as far as my knowledge there is no other way to detect this but i heard like by doing some code changes u can know something regarding that.
Thanks & Regards

if any one know any perameter plz let me know..
thanks in advance,

Hi Chaitanya,
I don't think theres a specific parameter to achieve this, but you can set the value of rdisp/gui_auto_logout to 10 in one of the instances and create a new logon group for this users.
Hope this help!

Hi Arjun,
You can contact your BASIS/ADMIN team and ask them to increase the time interval for rdisp/gui_auto_logout so that your login will remain for long time.

Gui auto logout

This is regarding SAP auto logout.
When activity is not detected in the systemfor a pre-determined period
of time, the user is automatically logged out from the system.
Users mentioned that they are often disturbed by phone calls from the
vendors and need to stop working in SAP immediately. Then some time
later the session gets closed and the data is lost, at this stage, it
is too late for the users to do anything and they will need to restart
whatever they were doing before.
Is there any possibility of enhancement for this auto logout mechanism
so that SAP gives users a chance to save the data?
For example, a pop-up message indicating that the session will be
closed down 5 minutes in advance of actual logout time will give a
chance to save the data to users.
This feature is not available in SAP standard but i do like to know whether you have customers who insist of having this and what's your workaround?
Thank you

Many thanks Ganesh,
I do have the rdisp/gui_auto_logout defined. But that is not the case. What user want is that there will be a pop out message to warn user that their session has been left idle for n number of minutes and will soon be closed before the gui actually terminated. They could be having many session open. All along we have restricted user from having multiple session (which we have done). Let me know how you manage such situation in your environment
Cheers

Auto logout time different per users

Hello
we are using almost all modules in ECC. So we have 2 kinds of SAP users, the administrative ones and the operational ones.
The administrative ones is using SAP all the day by creating purchase orders, process orders or recording control results by example. When they make an activities in SAP they can completed the task without any interruption.
But we have as well operational users who are using SAP to make physical activities like to place pallet in the warehouse with WM functions and to weight a drum from the PI-sheet in PPPI.
The auto logout is after 15 minutes of inactivity and I don't find how to set it up per users. In deed, the operator in production needs time between each weighing meaning stick label, remove the previous drum, take the new one, write information on the paper batch record, ... The time between 2 actions in SAP is more than 15 minutes. So the operator is automatically logout between each weighing and it takes around 2 minutes to log again and reload the Pi-sheet. By example, to weight 46 drums the operator will lost more than 1,5 hour. It's not acceptable by the production.It increases the production time of 16%.
How can I set up a auto logout time to 15 minutes or less for the administrative users and 1 hour for the production users located in a protected area ( no access by external people) ?
thanks in advance for your answer
regards
V Noirot
PPPI team lead

Hi,
You can increase the logout time for the endusers. But the power users, throughout the day they will be using the system. This time increase will not affect much on the power users. If you are saving some productive hours by increasing this time out means, you can do this. But it will act similar for both the users.

V. Suresh

ITunes Visualizer trumps Auto-Logout why?

My company has finally instituted a few security measures, and one is the auto-log out after 15 minutes (or at least a screen freeze). Now I set my computer to auto-logout, after I left work yesterday I left my iTunes playing and the visualizer on, assuming that the computer would completely log-out within 15 minutes, quiting iTunes and silencing my machine. Instead I found my boss pounding away at my keyboard trying to figure out how to silence my computer (he's an OS 9 person who only recently migrated so...he's still on the uptake on all the OS X stuff). Is there anyway to have my computer logout while the visualizer is on? Or do I just have to log out on my own?

Auto logout or disconnect of Lync 2013 client after inactivity

Is there any way to configure the Registry or perhaps a GPO so that Lync 2013 clients running on Windows 7 will auto logout or disconnect from the server if they have been inactive after a certain amount of time? Searched around and could not find anything.
I found the link below but it uses Preferences which have undesirable side affects.

OEM 10g Auto Logout

Hi altogether,
is there anybody who knows how to disable auto-logout? I've searched the profiles and roles, but evething seems to be o.k., in the default-role every option is 'unlimited'.
Thanks a lot
best regards
Andreas

Yah, I found the official metalink note:
1. Navigate to the EM OMS $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/config directory.
2. Make a backup copy of the emoms.properties file and then open the original file with a text editor. Go to the bottom of the file and add the line: oracle.sysman.eml.maxInactiveTime=60. This will set the idle session time to 60 minutes before disconnecting the session.
3. Stop the Management Service and restart it.
emctl stop oms
emctl start oms
This setting will increase the timeout to 60 minutes instead of the default 15 minutes.

Regular auto logout from SDN

Hi,
Every half an hour or so I get automatically logged out of SDN.Its not like I am idle on SDN for that duration.Very much active.
It so happens that I am browsing forums..and suddenly the screen shows 'Guest..please login'(when i refresh) in top right hand corner of the screen.Or it shows 'You cannot post a reply unless u login' when I try to post a reply.
If I then click on HOME and goto home page..it comes up as if I am logged on.
Then clicking on forums..page comes up as GUEST..please log in.
Unless I click log off and come back to home page and login again,this does not get corrected.Its irritating sometimes.
Some of my colleagues too seem to experience this.
Is it fairly common bug?
cheers,
Vishvesh

Thanks Eddy.
I hadnt seen your blog.Its very informative.I got some idea about this auto logout problem.
But shouldnt the user be auto logged-out only when he is idle for the duration?I thought so..
Also..u have mentioned this too..being logged off from forums but still logged on on the home page(PORTAL).
What is the purpose behind this revoking mechanism?Reduce traffic/load on servers?
cheers,
Vishvesh

Forcing iCal to Quit when auto-logout occurs

I have auto-logout set so others can't access my account. If I inadvertently leave iCal open before I leave, the logout won't happen because iCal doesn't shut down (this happens with other apps like Pages as well). Is there a way to make the logout event force-quit apps?

errmm, guess no one figured a solution out yet? i'd be interested in the outcome as well, i have exactly the same problem here... i need to force quit programs when it is shutdown time...

Disable Auto Logout

Hello,
Can anyone please point me in the right direction for disabling auto logoff?
The option is not available anywhere in the System Preferences.
I need the account to stay logged in so a software package can access a mounted share.
Many Thanks!
Glenn

I'm not sure I understand the question - there is no auto-logout (at least by default).
Either way, you shouldn't need to have an account logged in for mounts to stay active - if that's the case then I suggest you're mounting them incorrectly
That said, without more detail of what it is you're trying to do, it's hard to be sure.

Unlock with Admin to Auto-Logout

Looking for a way to have the system auto-logout if the screen is unlocked by an administrator. So if User1 is logged in and an admin unlocks the screen, User1 is logged out. This is enterprise standards that have to be met.
If FastUserSwitching is enabled, is there a way to have a login script check how many users are logged in and to log out if more than one are? I've tried messing around with the USERS and LOGNAME commands but they don't seem to work in a shell script like they do with direct input in terminal.
It'd be best to achieve this without any third party apps and only with scripts.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thank!

I don't think this is possible. To my knowledge, unlocking a screen doesn't trigger any system event or other process to which any script can be attached.

[SOLVED] auto-logout of tty1 after logout of desktop env. possible?

I don't know if I am missing something...
I have recently posted here about running X with different screen solutions: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=191255
I now added the auto-login configuration described here and that helps, except that when I logout, I am stuck at the tty1 console again as opposed to going straight back into auto-login and starting X. I know it's just a simple Ctrl+D to logout of the console, but I would prefer to:
- logout of desktop environment
- tty1 auto-logout
- tty1 auto-login
Is there a way to do this?

We know what the issue is - but how you start X determines what will happen when it is done. If you use the exec command as advised, you will be logged out of the tty as soon as X exits, and as you've set up autologin, you will be immediately logged back in. I have this set up here - it works.
But hey, if you're so sure your problem couldn't possibly be solved, I'll leave you to be unhappy.
Not in my nature to be unhappy
So let me try to give you all the details of my setup:
I have setup autologin to the console, as described in Automatic login to virtual console.
Once logged in at the console, ~/.bash_profile starts my desktop environment Enlightenment.
Here is my ~/.bash_profile:
# ~/.bash_profile
# If not running interactively, don't do anything
[[ $- != *i* ]] && return
# prompt
export PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '
# Auto-login to Enlightenment
if [[ -z $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]]
then
# set default GUI browser
export BROWSER=firefox
# get RESOLUTION
source ~/.RESOLUTION
export RESOLUTION=$RESOLUTION
# startx with xorg.conf file according to $RESOLUTION
if [ $RESOLUTION = 'lowres' ]
then
echo "starting low-res setup"
startx -- -config xorg.conf-2k
else
echo "starting hi-res setup"
startx -- -config xorg.conf
fi
fi
As you can see, I have two different xorg.conf files, one (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) sets up my four-monitor xinerama display, the other (/etc/X11/xorg.conf-2k) sets up a "normal" HD resolution display. These both work as expected.
The file ~/.RESOLUTION simply contains this:
RESOLUTION=hires
~/.bash_profile sources this file and sets the environment variable RESOLUTION, which is then used by ~/.xinitrc
My ~/.xinitrc file contains the following:
#!/bin/sh
# ~/.xinitrc
# Arch Linux Default
if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ]; then
for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*; do
[ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
done
unset f
fi
# start Enlightenment according to the
# environment variable RESOLUTION
if [ $RESOLUTION = 'lowres' ]
then
exec enlightenment_start
else
exec enlightenment_start -fake-xinerama-screen 3840x2400+0+0
fi
I have created a script called resw that looks like this:
#!/usr/bin/bash
# @author: [email protected]
# @since: 2015-01-09
# @version: 0.1
# @bugs: Works but should really also logout of tty1
# Script that pops up a zenity list menu
# with a 'lowres' and 'hires' option. When
# either is selected and 'OK' is clicked, the file '~/.RESOLUTION'
# will change it's 'RESOLUTION' value to the one chosen, and
# Enlightenment exits
# Now .bash_profile and .xinitrc can use the RESOLUTION value
# to act accordingly.
RESOLUTION=`zenity \
--title="Choose Resolution" \
--width=680 --height=230 \
--list --column="Variable" --column="Description" \
hires "Switch to high resolution [3840x2400]" \
lowres "Switch to low resolution [1920x1200]"`
if [[ $RESOLUTION = 'hires' ]]
then
sed -i s/lowres/hires/ ~/.RESOLUTION
enlightenment_remote -exit
elif [[ $RESOLUTION = 'lowres' ]]
then
sed -i s/hires/lowres/ ~/.RESOLUTION
enlightenment_remote -exit
else
exit 0
fi
As you can probably make out from the comments in that file, this is what happens when I run the script:
- A window with a selection-list pops up where I can choose "hires" or "lowres"
- When I choose either of these, the script rewrites the file ~/.RESOLUTION accordingly
- The script calls Enlightenment's "exit" function, which shuts down Enlightenment
- Restarting Enlightenment now will have ~/.bash_profile and ~/.xinitrc use the value that's set in ~/.RESOLUTION to start Enlightenment with the corresponding xorg.conf or xorg.conf-2k file
Everything works as expected, but what I am trying to accomplish is, that Enlightenment will automatically restart after I use the script above.
A manual logout does that once back at the console (tty1). But I can not seem to trigger that logout from the script.
In other words, everything works as expected, but after the script runs and Enlightenment exits, I have to manually do Ctrl+D to logout, which in turn does the automatic login again.
I know it may sound a bit overkill... but it would really be nice to get this working.
In case you wonder: running a custom xrandr command or script does not work in my case. It did before, when I was running Enlightenment e17, but apparently they changed something—once Enlightenment is in xinerama mode, it stays there, no matter what xrandr sets. I have tried that before, but it didn't work and that's why I came up with the more complicated solution above which uses two different xorg.conf files and a conditional startup command for startx and enlightenment_start
I hope it all makes sense, I would really be happy to find a solution for this...
