Issue/Introduction
Users who connect through VTAM session remain connected to Sysview session. Timeout seems not working.
The USERS command shows users with a session time of days:
Userid Interface CmdCt SessTime
USERA VTAM 10 00:05:30
USERB VTAM 105 25,4DAYS
The session time for USEB is 25.4 days
The following message should have been produced but did not appear:
10.12.24 STC20245 GSVX421I (VTAM.USERB) User session timeout, LU VBC01010 Userid USERB
Environment
Release : 16.0
Cause
The timeout value for that user was 0.
Resolution
Check if there is a timeout value for that user doing the following steps:
1. Issue SECURITY command
2.- Select USER GROUPS
3.- Select the group USERB belongs to
4.- Select the Miscellaneous Section and see what the timeout value is set to. If the timeout is set to zero the user will not be timed out.
5.- If the timeout is set to zero then use a value different than 0 to force the termination of the session. For example, suppose the timeout value is 5. If a user in this group logs on and does not enter any input for five minutes, then the session is terminated.
