Thanks but I don't yet see how this would solve my problem? When I look at the tutorial it shows setting up a tomcat pool that connects to oracle under a specific user name and password.
But in my case I want to limit the number of connections to the Oracle instance itself independent of the user id and password. For example let's say I have 100 geoserver workspaces, each of which manage a pool of connections to a specific Oracle schema (with all such schemas in one oracle instance). Each such pool would login to Oracle under a different user and password. I might want each pool to have as many as 50 active connections, and yet I want to see that regardless, no more than 200 total connections (in all the pools combined) will be created. In the above scenario of 100 workspaces with 50 connections each you might normally see as many as 5,000 connections. I'm looking for something that will see that regardless, the total connections are kept below a limit of say 200. So three particular pools might create 50 connections and if a 4th pool tries to create a new connection (to this specific oracle instance regardless of schema) that connection will block waiting for the limit to go below 200. Does JNDI create a way of doing that?
