Have a look at the following config-file in your server directory:

./hq-engine/server/default/deploy/hq.ear/hq.war/WEB-INF/web.xml

There is a parameter:

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

I think "30" is the timeout measured in minutes. Most apps I know a value of "0" means unlimited, but I didn't check it for Hyperic HQ.
A restart of hyperic may be necessary.
Please report if it works.

You're right. It's working.

Thank you!

Actually, the timeout will be capped at 30 minutes, with the
exception of the dashboard. This is because we actually count the
number of times we refresh the Recent Alerts in the masthead (at one
minute intervals), and log you out if the page has been left up for
about 30 minutes. It may make sense for us to make this configurable
directly through the UI.

I can confirm that in HQ v3.1 setting the timeout value to "0" in $HQ_PATH/server/hq-engine/server/default/deploy/hq.ear/hq.war/WEB-INF/web.xml does not have the desired effect. In fact, I can't tell that it has any effect at all - it times out at 30 minutes just like it did before. Setting it to a higher number results in the server giving a 404 error for all connection attempts.

Brad,did you just restart your HQ server ?
Sorry for the silly question...
