SYMPTOMS
You may see the following entry in the application event log:

String message: Session idle timeout over, tearing down the session.



CAUSE
This message indicates that the connection between a Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC) client and Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) is being torn down due to inactivity.



RESOLUTION
This message is usually just informational and can be ignored. Under normal circumstances, MS DTC tears down inactive connections after 10 minutes of idle time.
