Modifying the Inactivity Timer

Oracle recommends that you set the inactivity timer to prevent unauthorized access to your system as soon as possible.

The inactivity timer logs off the user from the SDM session when its value is exceeded. The user must re-enter their password to continue. You can set different values for a user with administrative permissions and users who do not have administrative permissions.

Note:

The default inactivity timer value for an administrator is set to zero (never expire). You must choose a different value to terminate a user session after a specified time period.
  1. Expand the Security Manager slider and select User Management > Inactivity timer.
  2. In the Session timeout panel, complete the following fields:
    Name Description
    Admin field (Optional) The number of minutes of inactivity after which the user with administrative permissions is logged off. The range is zero to 65535 minutes. Zero sets the inactivity timer to never expire.
    Non-Admin field The number of minutes of inactivity after which a non-administrative user is logged off. The range is 1 to 65535 minutes. Thirty minutes of user inactivity is the default.
  3. Click Apply.
