If so, you may be running into: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=546676 Otherwise, you are correct, 60 minutes is NOT abusive as defined by the server-side configuration. So if its not the bug above, and your configuration is 60 minutes, then there is something else that must be reaching out to RHN Hosted on a frequent basis that needs to be found. Thanks.
