Desirable new feature: GROUP revoke inactive days and consequently new user inactivity policy

We have set SETROPTS INACTIVE(60) and this is applicable for all users. However, we have some specific users with the requirement not to be revoked after 60 days but more than this value. So, Inactivity should be helpful to be defined as group attribute or (if not specified) to be the SETROPTS default. If a user is connected to groups with group inactivity value other than the SETROPTS INACTIVE default then this user should be revoked according to max or min (it should be SETROPTS customizable as well) inactivity value of these groups & SETROPTS INACTIVE.

Kind regards

Konstantinos

    This item is a valid requirement but unlikely to be given high enough priority to be placed into the product plan. If this requirement is high value, please re-open it, or open a new requirement.

    There are some specific userids (both protected or not) that are re-connected after the SETROPTS INACTIVE interval has expired. For these specific groups of users we want a new group interval different than SETROPTS.

    Thank you for submitting this Idea. We would appreciate more information. What is your use case for needing some user IDs with a longer interval? What type of IDs are they? Are they, or can they be, protected IDs?
