How to check if application code is overriding session timeout from WebSphere trace?
 Technote (FAQ)
 
Problem
There are multiple places where HTTPSession Timeout value can be specified. Value set in application takes highest precedence. Often times it becomes tough to determine if it is been overriden in application code.
 
Solution
Gather session trace for WebSphere as per the instructions for V5.0 or V6.0.

Look in the trace for the following string. You will see this string, if the application is calling setMaxInactiveInterval() on HTTPSession object is been called from application code:

SessionContex > SessionData.setMaxInactInterval
