Configuring the Host Inactivity Logout

For security, an everRun system limits the inactivity time of a login session on a host operating system. The default timeout is 10 minutes. After 10 minutes (or other specified time) of inactivity, the everRun system automatically logs out the session. A host inactivity logout prevents a login session from remaining open indefinitely without use.

To enable the Host Inactivity Logout and set the timeout

  1. Click Preferences in the left-hand navigation panel, to open the Preferences page.
  2. On the Preferences page, click Host Inactivity Logout.
  3. Activate the check box next to Enable Host Inactivity Logout.
  4. The default Host Inactivity Logout timeout is 10 minutes. To specify a different timeout, type a number of minutes next to Timeout Minutes.

    Enter minutes in whole numbers. You cannot enter 0.

  5. Click Save to save the values (or click Reset to restore previous values).
