However, i already reached the max by default (100) which is not pretty enormous.
And i've seen in the manuals downloaded from cloudstack.org that the mysql server should be configured with a max connections depending of differents elements such as nodes, vms, networks (i don't remember which elemnt exactly, but sure that there is a dependency of the configuration of mysql according to the size of the deployment. So i need to cover the disaster scenarios in order to be sure to apply the good disaster recovery procedures. Also i need to to be sure not to loss datas acording to differents scenarios. The mysql server being the brain of the cloud you build, it must absolutely keeping fully stable. Here are the reasons why i need to know if the code protect (transactions, exception managing loss of connection or crash or querie out of the mysql query cache) againt mysql failures. Si if there is still a doubt, so okay no problem, i will deploy a redundant solution and will consolidate my installation with per example a very big cluster (lot of ram with an expensive configuration) under xcp covering the crash.
