Changing the GUI timeout value.

Question

The default timeout is 10mins, I have been asked by a few people how to change this. : emc243953 1.) Log into the management server shell via a ssh 2.) Change to the smsflex directory via the following command: 'cd /opt/emc/VPlex/apache-tomcat-6.0.x/webapps/smsflex' 3.) The GUI idle timeout value is stored in a property in theVPlexConsole.ini file                (if the file does not exist you will need to create it with the followingcommand -> 'touch VPlexConsole.ini')        a. Open the VPlexConsole.ini file withan editor (ie. emacs/vim) and add the 'AUTO_LOGOUT_MINUTES=x'                property to the configuration file (or simply change the value of 'x' if itexists).                To set the GUI logout to 20 minutes, replace the valueof 'x' with 20.        b. Save the file and quit. 4.) Restart the management console with the following command: 'sudo /etc/init.d/VPlexManagementConsole restart' 5.) Log out of the management server 6.) You will need to establish a new GUI session for the new setting to be effective
