How to change session timeout in BA Control Panel?

Answer

Session timeout for BA Control Panel is defined in the PBA_ROOT/etc/ssm.conf.d/www.conf file on the BA application server in the [arguments] section as in the example below:

[arguments]
TTL=3600

PBA_ROOT is the BA installation root folder, the default values are:

  • BA for Linux: /usr/local/bm
  • BA for Windows: C:\Program Files\Parallels\PBA

Timeout should be set in seconds. Please note that the setting is applicable to all the users, there is a feature request #PBA-27977 to implement possibility to configure session timeouts per user. If you added/modified this parameter, restart the www container for the changes to take effect - execute the command below on the BA Application Server:

BA for Linux:

# service pba restart www

BA for Windows:

ssm restart www

Please refer to the documentation for additional details.
