[Tuyen Nguyen The (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-2930?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12808439#comment-12808439 ] 

Tuyen Nguyen The commented on GTNPORTAL-2930:
---------------------------------------------

We should remap on UI instead of change the DB value to avoid migration problems.
We should change the label of property and the display of value, for example:
"Keep session alive" => "Keep session alive to"
"Never" => "Never timeout"
"On-demand" => "On-demand"
"Always" => "Force timeout after period time"

> According to documentation, portal "keep seesion alive" property values meaning are as follows:
> never - The session will never timeout, even if an application requests it.
> On-demand - The session will timeout if an application requests it
> Always - The session will time out after a set period
> This is quite confusing. E.g. keep session alive never actually means to keep session alive forever.
> Keep session alive always means to let the session timeout automatically.
> If the documentation is correct, the name of the property or property values should be changed.
