Set the Session Timeout for Identity and Sysadmin Console in 11g R2 PS2

1. Shut down all servers

2. Backup the following application EAR files 

$ORACLE_HOME/server/apps/oracle.iam.console.identity.self-service.ear

$ORACLE_HOME/server/apps/oracle.iam.console.identity.sysadmin.ear

3. Modify the following application EAR files 

$ORACLE_HOME/server/apps/oracle.iam.console.identity.self-service.ear

$ORACLE_HOME/server/apps/oracle.iam.console.identity.sysadmin.ear

4. Copy these files to a working/local machine and edit using 7zip or some other tool that deals with large ZIP files

5. Within these ear files only the web.xml needs to be modified.

Following is the full path to the web.xml files that need to change:

• oracle.iam.console.identity.self-service.ear/oracle.iam.console.identity.self-service.war/WEB-INF/web.xml

• oracle.iam.console.identity.sysadmin.ear/oracle.iam.console.identity.sysadmin.war/WEB-INF/web.xml

6. For both web.xml files, search for the session-timeout tag and place your desired value. The unit is in minutes.

Example in web.xml file

<session-config>

<session-timeout>60</session-timeout>

</session-config>

7. Start all servers
