13.2. Limiting Idle Time

If you have applications that leave connections open for long periods, OpenDJ can end up devoting resources to maintaining connections that are no longer used. If your network does not drop such connections eventually, you can configure OpenDJ to drop them by setting the global configuration property, idle-time-limit. By default, no idle time limit is set.

[Note] Note

OpenDJ does not enforce idle timeout for persistent searches.

$ dsconfig
 set-global-configuration-prop
 --port 4444
 --hostname opendj.example.com
 --bindDN "cn=Directory Manager"
 --bindPassword password
 --set idle-time-limit:24h
 --trustAll
 --no-prompt

The example shown sets the idle time limit to 24 hours.
