Hello List, Senario,
Browser --> Loadbalancer --> 2 http server --> UNIX + Websphere App Server (MT) -- F/W--> ARSERVER UNIX + DB=Oracle 10g) This is the first time the ARS is behind firewall. The firewall flushes connection on each session every hour. Midtier configuration session timeout is set to 60 min. We see slow/long logins and 'out of state" session in the firewall. So if the Connections to arserver are from the Java API connection pool, - How can the connection pool be managed? - If the keepalive protocol is enabled, will this keep session to database open? - If the connection pool is has stale connection, how can they flushed immediately such that less time to create new session? - if the unix default keepalive 2 hour variable is changed to 1hour, how does this impact the Java API connection pool. Basically, how can we either keep the session alive across a f/w that flushes sessions every hour? or Manage the pool to flush stale connections very quickly, such that establishing another session (login) is in seconds rather than minutes? -- View this message in context: http://ars-action-request-system.1093659.n2.nabble.com/Java-API-connection-pool-question-tp7454090p7454090.html Sent from the ARS (Action Request System) mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: "Where the Answers Are"
