This the maximum idle time a user is allowed before the QVS ends the user session.

Default: 1800 (seconds)

Possible Session Timeout

This setting coincides with the number of concurrent sessions setting to determine if any 'old' sessions can be taken to provide access to a new user coming into the environment.

Location: QMC > System> Setup > QVS@ > Performance tab
Default: 1800 (seconds)

Max Total Session Time

This setting allows for the QVS to control the maximum time a user is allowed for any given session.
