Description
An unattended terminal can be a security problem; the AUTO-LOGOFF command can reduce this risk on a system-wide or an account-by-account basis.
If neither seconds nor options are specified, the current AUTO-LOGOFF settings for the specified processes display.
AUTO-LOGOFF will not force a process that is currently logged on to logoff. The AUTO-LOGOFF command only takes effect after the process has been logged off and logged back on again.
The AUTO-LOGOFF command can be included in the USER-COLD-START Proc to set system-wide auto-logoff parameters.
Automatically Logging Off a Process
This example specifies that process number 9 will be automatically logged off after 600 seconds (10 minutes) of CPU inactivity:
>AUTO-LOGOFF 9 600 |
The next example specifies that the ORDERS account be automatically logged off after 1200 seconds (twenty minutes) of CPU inactivity:
>AUTO-LOGOFF ORDERS 1200 |
The next example logs off line 1 after 10 seconds of inactivity:
>AUTO-LOGOFF 1 10 |
The next example logs off lines 2 through 4 after 5 seconds of inactivity:
>AUTO-LOGOFF 2-4 5 |
The next example logs of line 1 if it becomes disconnected:
>AUTO-LOGOFF 1 (D |
The next example logs off lines 2-4 if they become disconnected:
>AUTO-LOGOFF 2-4 (D |
The next example clears the AUTO-LOGOFF settings for line 1:
>AUTO-LOGOFF 1(C |
The next example clears the AUTO-LOGOFF settings for lines 2 through 4:
>AUTO-LOGOFF 2-4 (C |
The next example displays the AUTO-LOGOFF settings for lines 1:
>AUTO-LOGOFF 1 |
The next example displays the AUTO-LOGOFF settings for lines 2 through 4:
>AUTO-LOGOFF 2-4 |
