Each user that is connected to JMap Server using a JMap application has an open session on the server. The session remains open as long as the JMap application is not closed. Sessions contain information about the identity of the user. Depending on your license agreement, you may be limited to a certain number of simultaneous sessions.
To access the session management section, click on Sessions in the JMap Server section.
Five different types of sessions are possible. The following table describes each type of session.
You can view the list of open sessions. By selecting the Active sessions tab, the list of current sessions will be displayed along with useful information on each session. You can close open sessions by selecting them and clicking on Close session(s).
Reserved sessions are special sessions for users who have priority over the other users. These users can always open a JMap Pro, JMap Web or JMap Survey session, even if the maximum number of sessions is reached, according to your license. These reserved sessions are recorded separately from the rest of the sessions.
If your JMap user license permits it, you can assign a certain number of reserved sessions to the users of your choice. Press to select a user and assign him/her a reserved session. Once the maximum number of reserved sessions has been assigned, you cannot assign any to other users. You can remove a reserved session from a user by selecting that person’s name and clicking on .
Session statistics provide basic information on user activity over time. You can determine the total number of sessions over a given period and the highest number of concurrent sessions reached over a period of time. Statistics are displayed in a bar graph. Click on Update to generate the graph.
The sessions information is stored in the JMap System database for a period of 18 months. Sessions that are older than 18 months are automatically deleted from the System database.
