Configure the Administrative Interface Inactivity Timeout (Login Shell)

The storage server supports the ability to terminate administrative sessions that are inactive for more than a predefined number of seconds.

To define the administrative interface inactivity timeout for a system account login shell, perform this procedure.

1. Log into the storage server as celladmin.

   See Log into the Storage Server OS.

2. View the current setting.

   # /opt/oracle.cellos/host_access_control idle-timeout --status | grep Shell
   

3. Define the administrative interface inactivity timeout.

   To comply with U.S. Department of Defense security and PCI-DSS requirements, specify a value of 900 (seconds). If necessary, replace that value with one that is compliant with your local site policy.

   # /opt/oracle.cellos/host_access_control idle-timeout --shell 900
   

4. To verify the setting, repeat Step 2.
