Process to avoid Concurrent Sessions for a User in Maximo


Connect to the Maximo database (IP)
Execute the following query :
 select * from MAXPROPVALUE where propname='mxe.enableConcurrentCheck'

If the value of the PROPVALUE field is 1, then a user can only have a single session on maximo. If it is 0, then the user can have multiple concurrent sessions in Maximo.

To update this value if required, execute the following SQL statement : 

# For Multiple Session 
UPDATE MAXPROPVALUE SET PROPVALUE='0 WHERE PROPNAME='mxe.enableConcurrentCheck' 


#For Single Session

UPDATE MAXPROPVALUE SET PROPVALUE='1'  WHERE PROPNAME='mxe.enableConcurrentCheck'

Changing timeout of Maximo Session

Below are the steps to change the timeout from the default 30 minutes
1. Edit web.xml  found in directory using  text editor like Notepad:
[maximo root]/applications/maximo/maximouiweb/webmodule/WEB-INF
2. Change the value in the session-timeout tag in session-config section as follows:
<session-config>
<!-- The session-timeout element defines the default session timeout
interval for all sessions created in this web application. The
specified timeout must be expressed in a whole number of minutes. -->
<session-timeout>
60</session-timeout>
</session-config>
The session timeout is now set for one hour in the above example.
3. Save and close the file.
4. Rebuild and redeploy the maximo.ear file.
