By default, DTP sessions time out after 600 minutes of inactivity. You can change the timeout period to something that suits your needs.

To change the DTP session timeout:

1. Open PSTRootConfig.xml in the <DTP_DATA_DIR>/conf directory.
2. Uncomment out 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 DTP.

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.
