Just a quick note to remember how to disable the default web timeout of 30 minutes in vCenter Operations.

  1. Login as root on the UI VM.
  2. Open the the web.xml file with VI: vi/usr/lib/vmware-vcops/tomcat/webapps/vcops-vsphere/WEB-INF/web.xml
  3. Change the default value 30 to –1 to disable the timeout completely.

  4. Save the changes via ESC, :wq
  5. restart the vcopsweb service via:  service vcopsweb restart
  6. Wait until the service is ready again.

Login to vCenter Operations and enjoy the view of your dashboards Smile
