Open Sessions in BOBJ

sdk development
1

Hi,
We recently upgraded from BOBJ 4.1 SP4 to BOBJ 4.2 SP3. We have been using restfulweb services to access reports for some specific users and after upgrade we have a new problem. We have a lot of sessions from this userid and they keep hanging up on BOBJ systems. I have to manually kill these sessions every day. Just as an example I had to kill about 90 sessions from these userid which started on May 4th at from 12-8 PM EST.

I am thinking to run some scripts which will kill sessions periodically but i donot want to interfer with any user whose running reports for various external customers.

I have checked with our team and they tell me no new changes were done to the code from their side. Can you please point me in a direction to resolve this issue. I made sure that the BOBJ timeouts are same as they were in our previous version and checked all BOBJ settings and I see no change.

Thanks in advance

Any Developers using REST SDK?
If yes, Timeout for this default = 60Min.

In my previous project, i had a similar issue. However, we were letting users consume reports from a in house developed portal. We were running in to sessions being opened even after user is done and reaching limits. How i handled it was using monitoring, every time the session count went to certain limit, i would force the CMS to restart and it would kill all sessions, and existing users would maintain their session automatically.
