Description

Following is the listing of the Impala sessions from Impala daemon Web UI (Screen shot is attached to the issue) . It shows that there are 4 active sessions wherein 3 of the 4 sessions have actually expired. On a large deployment, it can show a lot of active sessions (with most of them as expired) thereby causing users to get concerned. Users need to be able to see non-expired sessions.
