Configuring License Server Settings

  1. Open the License Server home page.
  2. Choose Configuration > Settings and configure the settings.

The following settings are available:

Remove log files older than __ daysWhen enabled, specifies how many days (up to 365) that logs are stored before automatically being removed from the file system. When not enabled, logs are not automatically removed.
Clients should start deactivatedEnabling this option forces connected Parasoft tools to start deactivated. See the Parasoft tool documentation settings for additional information.
Grant license token to login username

When enabled, License Server will grant license tokens to the username used to log into DTP. By default, this setting is disabled and License Server grants license tokens to the OS username. In OIDC mode, the license token is always granted to the OIDC login username.

Configuring License Server Session Timeout

By default, License Server sessions time out after 600 minutes of inactivity. You can change the timeout period to something that suits your needs. License Server and User Administration have their own settings.

To change the License Server session timeout:

  1. Open web.xml in the <LSS_INSTALL_DIR>/app/tomcat/webapps/licenseserver/WEB-INF directory or, if you installed License Server to use your own Tomcat installation, in the <TOMCAT_INSTALL_DIR>/webapps/licenseserver/WEB-INF directory.
  2. Find the <session-timeout> element and update the value, which is expressed in minutes.
    • Enter the session timeout value in whole numbers only. You can enter a negative number to disable session timeouts; see the notes below.
  3. Save the file and restart LSS.

To change the User Administration session timeout:

  1. Open PSTRootConfig.xml in the <LSS_INSTALL_DIR>/data/conf directory or, if you installed License Server to use your own Tomcat installation, in the <TOMCAT_INSTALL_DIR>/webapps/pstsec/conf directory.
  2. Uncomment out the <session-timeout> element and update the value, which is expressed in minutes. If the <session-timeout> element is not present, add it and set the value. 
    • Enter the session timeout value in whole numbers only. You can enter a negative number to disable session timeouts; see the notes below.
  3. Save the file and restart LSS.

Notes:

  • You can enter a value of 0 or -1 to disable session timeout so that sessions never time out.
  • The smallest session timeout is 2 minutes. If you enter a value of 1, the session timeout will be 2 minutes.
  • No labels
