User Sessions
The system Control user portlet will give you information about all sessions for all active users. This is a great way for an administrator to look into things if, for example, a user reports problems of some kind with a session.
Pressing the Users… button will take you to the System Control users portlet as below:
Users portlet fields
User | User name of the user that has started the session. |
Name | Full name of the user. |
Requester | This is the name of the requesting entity of a session. A requester is an entity that makes a session request to the Comflow runtime engine core. When a user logs in to the Comflow runtime environment using a browser, the portal will make a request to the Comflow runtime engine thus being a requester. There are different requesters: Jetspeed PAPI (Portal API, when not using Jetspeed) SOAP Figure 6 displays two of the three different requesters. |
Wf | This is the corresponding workflow of the Requester. The workflow in Figure 7 corresponds to a Jetspeed requestor. Press the icon to see the workflow diagram. |
Last accessed | The time of the latest system access (activity) of the user |
Remote host | IP address of the host that runs the browser that is being used for accessing the Comflow runtime environment |
Session id | Unique id of the session |
When right clicking on a specific session it is possible to choose:
Details (detailed information about the session)
Shutdown session (ends the user session)
Choosing Details for a specific session will take you to the view below:
Session details fields
Session id | Unique id of the session. |
User | User name of the user that has started the session. |

Requester | This is the name of the requesting entity of a session. A requester is an entity that makes a session request to the Comflow runtime engine core. When a user logs in to the Comflow runtime environment using a browser, the portal will make a request to the Comflow runtime engine thus being a requester.

Last accessed | The time of the latest system access (activity) of the user |
Remote host | IP address of the host that runs the browser that is being used for accessing the Comflow runtime environment |
Dialog task id | Id of the running dialog task |
Workflow file name | This is the corresponding session workflow of the Requester. |
Memory utilization | The amount of system internal memory used by the session |
| Calculates the amount of memory that the session uses and populates the field Memory utilization with the calculated value. |
Session values segment:
Most of the values in the session values segment are setup in the SessionManager tag in the sitedef. Because of this the number and content of the session value keys may vary.
Session value keys
COMPANY | Company to which the user session applies. |
SYSTEM | Server to which the user is logged into. |
DIVI | DIVI to which the user session applies. |
CONO | CONO to which the user session applies. |
ENTERPRISE | Enterprise to which the user session applies. |
REALM | Realm to which the user session applies. |
USERID | UserId of the user to which the user session applies. |
SESSIONID | Unique sessionId of the session. |
Dialog Workspaces segment:
One session can of course have several tasks running, thus several dialog workspaces can exist for one session.
Right clicking the dialog workspaces segment presents a Calculate memory utilization option. Such an operation will populate the Memory utilization field of the selected workspace.
Table Dialog workspaces fields
Wf | Graphical pop up view of the workflow associated with that specific dialog workspace |
| Pop up view of the portlet in which the user currently is working |
Dialog id | Id of a specific dialog workspace |
Task | Name of the task to which the session applies i.e. with which task the user is working on. |
Task description | Description of the task to which the session applies i.e. with which task the user is working on |
Activity id | Activity id of the activity that is being performed by the user. |
Workflow file name | Workflow file name of the workflow in which the user is currently working. |
Memory utilization | The amount of system internal memory used by the session |
