Issue
The following messages should occur in the FIM system.log file when the CTSession Cleanup thread runs.

If these events are not logged then the cleanup thread may not have run.
Cause
In addition, even if the CTSession plugin is reloaded, if an existing CTSessionCleanupThread is currently sleeping, the new cleanup interval will not take effect until the existing thread sleep interval has expired.
Also note that if any error occurs that prevents the CTSession plugin from being loaded, the cleanup thread will not be started.
