Hi Everybody,
I am a little confused about the Orphan timeout & Idle timeout of Data source connection pool used for Servlet. What will WebSphere do after the number of seconds of Orphan timeout? WebSphere will close the connection or return to the connection pool?
What is happening to the Idle timeout?
Thanks,
Carol Chen
If a connection is held outside the pool but not used longer than the "Orphan" timeout it is then returned to the pool. If a connection remains unused in the pool longer than the idle timeout, and if the pool is greater than the minimum pool size, the connection is removed from the pool and destroyed.
