PFA

Session Timeout, Document Timeout and Inactive Time

[Kushal_Chawda]

Sessions

Maximum Number of Concurrent Sessions

For each document that a user opens on the QVS, a new user session is generated. It is possible to configure the maximum number of concurrent user sessions that are allowed on the QVS. To set the maximum number of concurrent user sessions, enter a suitable figure in this text box.

If the server is dedicated for the QlikView Server, this function should not be used.

This setting is not related to Client Access Licenses (CALs).

Default value: 5000 (an empty field means no limit).

Maximum Inactive Session Time

User sessions, which have had no activity during a specified time limit, can be configured to be closed by the QVS. To set the session timeout, enter a suitable figure in this text box.

The maximum inactive session time can also be set per document. The session time with the lowest value takes precedence. If the session time entered in this text box is lower than the document session time, the document session time is disregarded.

Default value: 1800 seconds (0 is not allowed; empty means no limit).

Possible Session Timeout

User sessions, which have had no activity during a specified time limit, can be configured to be eligible for being closed by the QVS, if needed. To set the session timeout, enter a suitable figure in this text box.

The QlikView Server may close inactive sessions and re-use the slot, if needed for other users.

Default value: 1800 seconds (0 is not allowed; empty means no limit).

Maximum Total Session Time

All user sessions, active or not, can be configured to be terminated by the QVS after a specified time limit. To set the session timeout, enter a suitable figure in this text box.

Default value: No limit (0

is not allowed; empty means no limit).

Server

Document Timeout

Open documents take up valuable system resources (that is, memory space, RAM, is allocated) and should not be allowed to remain open when not in use. However, if a document is closed too quickly, the users may get longer delay times when accessing the document, because the server has to reopen it. This value controls for how long a document will be allowed to be unused before the QlikView Server (QVS) closes the document and reclaims the resources.

Default value: 480 minutes.
