First off its number of connections not number of users. You could have 100 users, but 20 concurrent connections, not 100.
If an additional connection is attempted when all available are used, it will be refused until one is available. To answer your second question about what happens with increasing the number of connection - the direct impact is it would require larger heap size, more memory. For 200 connections, you might need to double your numbers.

Please advise what will happen if user number (81) try to connect also, can we increase the value of "maximum connections per server" to be 200 for example and what is the impact?. Note:- we are on 7.6.04 SP4 and Tomcat 6.5 Thanks _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org "Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years"
