4-9

Ending a Session

In Example 4-9, the client requests an end to the session without invoking any other

service.

The response indicates that the session has ended. The text Session ended is

always present in such a response.

Session Timeout

NonStop SOAP defines the environment variable SOAP_SESSION_TIMEOUT to

specify the time, in minutes, during which an inactive session will stay valid. After the

timeout period has elapsed, the SOAP server automatically ends the session.

You specify SOAP_SESSION_TIMEOUT in the NonStop SOAP configuration file

described in NonStop SOAP Configuration File on page 4-60.
