If your application includes transactional stateful CORBA or PowerBuilder components or EJB stateful session beans, configure an idle timeout property for the component. Doing so ensures that if a client crashes or an end user leaves their workstation, transactions do not remain open indefinitely.
To configure a timeout for stateful session beans, set the ejb.passivateTimeout property as described in Chapter 2, “Deploying and Configuring EJB Components,” in the EJB Users Guide.
To configure a timeout for stateful CORBA or PowerBuilder components, set the Passivation Timeout as described in Chapter 4, “Managing CORBA Packages and Components,” in the CORBA Components Guide.
