How to set JazzSM DASH session to never expire

How To


Summary

This technote provides the steps to set the JazzSM DASH session not to expire so users will not be asked to log in to DASH again.

Steps

(1). On DASH server, take a backup of the following xml files:
  • /opt/IBM/JazzSM/profile/config/cells/JazzSMNode01Cell/security.xml
  •  /opt/IBM/JazzSM/profile/config/cells/JazzSMNode01Cell/applications/isc.ear/deployments/isc/deployment.xml
  •  /opt/IBM/JazzSM/profile/config/cells/JazzSMNode01Cell/applications/isc.ear/deployments/isc/isclite.war/WEB-INF/consoleProperties.xml
(2). Modify security.xml, search for "timeout" where xmi:type="security.LTPA". Set timeout to max value 2147483647.
Example:
<authMechanisms xmi:type="security:LTPA" xmi:id="LTPA_1" OID="oid:1.3.18.0.2.30.2" authContextImplClass="com.ibm.ISecurityLocalObjectTokenBaseImpl.WSSecurityContextLTPAImpl" authConfig="system.LTPA" simpleAuthConfig="system.LTPA" authValidationConfig="system.LTPA" timeout="2147483647" keySetGroup="KeySetGroup_JazzSMNode01_1">
The value "2147483647" is in minutes (4085 years).
(3). Modify deployment.xml, search for "invalidationTimeout"" and set it to 30
Example:

<tuningParams xmi:id="TuningParams_1477991331923" usingMultiRowSchema="false" maxInMemorySessionCount="1000" allowOverflow="true" scheduleInvalidation="false" writeFrequency="TIME_BASED_WRITE" writeInterval="10" writeContents="ONLY_UPDATED_ATTRIBUTES" invalidationTimeout="30">
(4). Modify consoleProperties.xml, search for "ISC.KEEPALIVE.INTERVAL" and set it to 5
Example:
<consoleproperties:console-property id="ISC.KEEPALIVE.INTERVAL" value="5"/>
In the same file, consoleProperties.xml, search for "LTPAFIX" and change the value from "true" to "false".
Example:
<consoleproperties:console-property id="LTPAFIX" value="false"/>
(5). Save the files.
(6). Restart JazzSM DASH server.
/opt/IBM/JazzSM/profile/bin/stopServer.sh server1 -username smadmin -password <smadmin_password>
/opt/IBM/JazzSM/profile/bin/startServer.sh server1 -username smadmin -password <smadmin_password>
