Re: ACS Session disconnecting after a few minutes of inactivity

This indicates that IBM i was no longer able to communicate to your client and thus terminated the connection. Therefore, a high probability this is network related. So some things we need to know to help you.

1) Are you working in the office or remotely.

2) If office is IBM i on the same network as your PC or is there a firewall between?

3) If remotely what connectivity are you using? Public IP address (Hope not!), VPN, Remote desktop (VMWare horizon, Microsoft TSC etc.)

I have noticed recently that my 5250 sessions using ACS end after about ten
minutes of inactivity.


This does not match the system values for timeout which is *NONE or any
other setting that I can find.


The “keepalive” option is turned on in the .hod file but this does not help
either.



The messages I get in the job log as the session is terminated by the system
are:

What would I need to due to keep the session active until I decide to close
it??
