Sitecore Session Timeout
I had to update session timeout from 15mins to 30mins. To understand different sessions timeout being managed by Sitecore, blog-https://grantkillian.wordpress.com/2015/03/26/53/ helped me to understand it in detail. I updated all the configuration as per this blog , however still on CD server , it was getting timeout in 15mins.
Setting to be updated-
1.
<authentication mode="None">
<forms name=".ASPXAUTH" cookieless="UseCookies" timeout="30" />
</authentication>
2. <sessionState mode="InProc" timeout="30" ..>
3. <setting name="Authentication.ClientSessionTimeout" value="30" />
On further analysis it was found that IIS timeout setting was still 15mins.Use this link to update IIS timeout setting to required value.
