IBM PAW IDLE Session Timeout

Post by PrabhjotSinghPhull »

Hi Team
Hope youre doing well.

PAW version 2.0.87

I have referred the IBM article and updated the session timeout.
Step 1 : Stopped the PAW service by using running Paw.ps1 stop via powershell as admin from Scripts folder in installation directory.
Step 2 : Updated paw.ps1 files in Config folder in Installation directory.
Step 3 : Started PAW service by using running Paw.ps1 start via powershell from Scripts folder in installation directory.
Step 4 : login in PAW minimize the screen for 15 mins to check the idle session time out thing it is not working.

result : the PAW session didnt get timed out.

Refernces used :

PLANNING ANALYTICS WORKSPACE IDLE TIMEOUT:
Default: 60m ( 60 minutes )
Location: <paw install>/config/paw.env
Setting: SessionTimeout

Is your PAW running on Windows or Linux?

And you specified SessionTimeout="15m" - ensuring case is same?

Yes correct the Windowserver 2016 and have written in below format.
$env:SessionTimeout="15m"

In config folder the default.ps1 file still the parameter is 60m which was supposed to over ride after stop and start the paw.ps1 and its not overriding it.
