Hey, thanks for the TONS of helpful replies I got to this question! It's a good thing this wasn't to solve an enterprise question or anything. Oh, wait...it was.
Signing off... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Oracle v$session and iBatis Leffingwell, Jonathan R CTR FRCSE, JAX 7.2.2 Tue, 14 Apr 2009 07:03:18 -0700 We are monitoring our web app through, among other things, looking at the Oracle view v$session. For testing purposes, we tested one user logging into the system, doing a couple of transactions, then logging out. The number of "connections" (for lack of a better term) in v$session fluctuated greatly, and when the user logged out of the application, the number of "connections" went from 27...to 28! Does it make sense for a user to log out and INCREASE the number of connections? Here's how my transaction manager is configured: <sqlMapConfig> <settings cacheModelsEnabled="false" enhancementEnabled="false" lazyLoadingEnabled="false" maxSessions="64" maxTransactions="32" maxRequests="512"/> <transactionManager type="JDBC"> <dataSource type="SIMPLE"> <property name="DataSource" value="${datasource}"/> <property name="JDBC.Driver" value="${driver}"/> <property name="JDBC.ConnectionURL" value="${url}"/> <property name="JDBC.Username" value="${username}"/> <property name="JDBC.Password" value="${password}"/> <property name="JDBC.DefaultAutoCommit" value="$(autocommit)"/> <property name="Pool.MaximumActiveConnections" value="10"/> <!-- Default = 10 --> <property name="Pool.MaximumIdleConnections" value="5"/> <!-- Default = 5 --> <property name="Pool.MaximumCheckoutTime" value="20000"/> <!-- Default = 20000 milliseconds --> <property name="Pool.TimeToWait" value="20000"/> <!-- Default = 20000 milliseconds --> <property name="Pool.PingEnabled" value="true"/> <!-- Default = false --> <property name="Pool.PingQuery" value="select 0 from dual"/> <!-- No Default Query --> <property name="Pool.PingConnectionsOlderThan" value="7200000"/> <!-- Default = 0 milliseconds --> <property name="Pool.PingConnectionsNotUsedFor" value="7200000"/> <!-- No Default --> </dataSource> </transactionManager> <sqlMap resource="folder/sql/ourSQL.xml"/> </sqlMapConfig> Can anyone tell me how connections are handled in a simple datasource in iBatis, with respect to the v$session view? Is connection pooling not happening? Any insight would be appreciated, and my apologies in advance if I'm not clear. Jonathan
