Since v3.4.8 of the PHP client library, `session.gc_maxlifetime` is used to define session TTL in Aerospike Session Handler (it was `session.cache_expire` in older releases).

Documentation should be fixed:

[http://www.aerospike.com/docs/client/php/usage/sessions.html](http://www.aerospike.com/docs/client/php/usage/sessions.html)

> The value of ~~`session.cache_expire`~~ **`session.gc_maxlifetime`** is the record time-to-live (TTL or expiration).
