Description
Currently these values are hard-coded in the Nexus config to 1 hour and 8 hours, respectively. It would make a lot of sense to allow the operator to set these values dynamically.

Research direction
Start with smf/nexus/multi-sled/config-partial.toml at lines 8–9, where the one-hour and eight-hour values are hard-coded. Trace how Nexus configuration is exposed to operators and identify the relevant API entry point. Done means operators can configure both session idle and absolute timeouts instead of relying on fixed values.
