GRC Firefighter Idle Session Timeout

Hello,

Is it possible to configure idle-session timeout for Firefighter IDs?  These IDs are Service accounts, so they aren't affected by normal Dialog user ID parameters for session timeout.  I have researched this issue, but I can only find "thoughts" from people who think they can achieve this through ABAP programming or Basis.  Haven't found any detailed solution yet.  If a solution exists, please share.

I noticed today that one of my Firefighter end users opened a Firefighting session, performed some work, left the office for the night while the session was still opened, came back the next day and continued Firefighting activities.  The FF Log showed activity performed on both 7/8 and 7/9 within the same session, and I am highly interested in preventing this sort of activity.

Thanks,

Ken

Hi Ken,

FF id can also be Dialog id. But if this change of FF ids type is not feasible, then could you limit the validity period of FF to 1 day.

Hi Ken,

Firefighter activity utilizes RFC connection from the GRC system to the plugin system in which FF activity is being performed. You can achieve idle session timeout for the Firefighter by placing idle time restriction on the RFC connection.

As RFC calls are executed thru dialog work processes, so you can set the parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time to a desired value, example 3600 seconds.

Hope it helps. Let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks,

Faraz
