This due to a bug where java threads are not being cleared after users have successfully authenticated, so the CAS B2 needs to be updated to latest version. If the system using a self-developed or open source CAS authentication module (e.g., CAS Fallback), they might need to open a ticket to Bb Support. More detailed information would be helpful to troubleshoot this issue: 1. Version of Blackboard Learn system 2. Application server and database server OS 3. Jdk version in application server 4. Memory size 5. Load-balanced environment or not Also they can generate an Oracle AWR report to find out something from database side. -Yuan From: Biondi, Dan Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2013 8:13 AM To: Liu, Yuan Cc: Osburn, Andy G Subject: FW: CAS with Blackboard Yuan: Are you aware of anything helpful that I could pass on? -db From: Juan Quintanilla [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, November 25, 2013 8:35 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [cas-user] CAS with Blackboard Hi, Wondering if anyone has seen or currently has CAS configured with Blackboard? We encountered some instances were all of a sudden the number of Busy DB Connections in our C3P0 pool jump up 300 and continue to rise until we get the db connection checkout timeout error in our CAS log. We are thinking that its because the connection with Blackboard during Ticket interaction under heavy traffic is not finishing quick enough and closing the DB connection for the next user. Has anyone had any experience with CAS and C3P0 pooling using oracle? In our situation we are having to increase our DB connections to avoid these spikes?
