We see the same thing. We're trying Oracle RAC. In the meantime we haven't found any way to ease the problem; the connections are probably coming from the pool so the login timeout won't help.
You could run a page that programatically sets all the datasources to disabled. Of course you need to be able to make that page run while the other pages are blocking up the server; that's where something like FusionReactor might help. mxAjax / CFAjax docs and other useful articles: http://www.bifrost.com.au/blog/ 2008/10/2 Alex DeMarco <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Hello All, > > We have a production CFMX server with approx 20 oracle datasources(all > coming from the same server, yes I know single point of failure). > > Anyways, whenever our DB server crashes here's what happens: > > 10/01 19:37:09 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/1 Sessions: 3848 Total > Memory=468992 Free=280550 > 10/01 19:38:09 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/3 Sessions: 3833 Total > Memory=468992 Free=254816 > 10/01 19:39:09 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 25/40 Sessions: 3827 Total > Memory=469824 Free=273703 > 10/01 19:40:09 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 25/100 Sessions: 3805 > Total Memory=469888 Free=240330 > 10/01 19:41:09 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 25/156 Sessions: 3785 > Total Memory=469312 Free=240488 > 10/01 19:42:09 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 25/219 Sessions: 3757 > Total Memory=469504 Free=247857 > 10/01 19:43:09 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 25/256 Sessions: 3737 > Total Memory=466624 Free=268661 > 10/01 19:44:09 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 25/256 Sessions: 3712 > Total Memory=466624 Free=246657 > > The CFMX server grinds to a halt and nothing works until the db comes back > up.
