Hi Bobs ,

The vRealize Automation appliance default session timeout on user inactivity is 30 minutes. To adjust this time out value to conform to your organization’s security policy, edit the web.xml file on your vRealize Automation appliance host machine.

Follow the below steps :

    Login to vRA appliance console as root user .

    Open the/usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/vcac/WEB-INF/web.xml file in a text editor.

    ex: vi /usr/lib/vcac/server/webapps/vcac/WEB-INF/web.xml

    Find session-config and set the session-timeout value. See the following code sample. change value in session timeout to something more than 30. Click on i in VI editor to edit , once edited press ESC then :wq to save and exit.

    <!– 30 minutes session expiration time –>

    <session-config>

    <session-timeout>30</session-timeout>

    <tracking-mode>COOKIE</tracking-mode>

    <cookie-config>

    <path>/</path>

    </cookie-config>

    </session-config>

    Restart the server by running the following command.

         service vcac-server restart

    or you can just restart apache services as below

        /etc/init.d/apache2 stop

        /etc/init.d/apache2 start

I have literally no idea what problem you're having because of your lack of detail. Please be specific, provide screenshots, and/or thoroughly describe what is happening.
