Allowable Values

Description

Database Connection URL *

Database Connection URL

A database connection URL used to connect to a database. May contain database system name, host, port, database name and some parameters. The exact syntax of a database connection URL is specified by your DBMS.

Database Driver Class Name *

Database Driver Class Name

Database driver class name

Database User

Database User

Database user name

Max Total Connections *

Max Total Connections

8

The maximum number of active connections that can be allocated from this pool at the same time, or negative for no limit.

Max Wait Time *

Max Wait Time

500 millis

The maximum amount of time that the pool will wait (when there are no available connections) for a connection to be returned before failing, or -1 to wait indefinitely.

Password

Password

The password for the database user

Validation query

Validation-query

Validation query used to validate connections before returning them. When connection is invalid, it gets dropped and new valid connection will be returned. Note!! Using validation might have some performance penalty.

Database Driver Location(s)

database-driver-locations

Comma-separated list of files/folders and/or URLs containing the driver JAR and its dependencies (if any). For example ‘/var/tmp/mariadb-java-client-1.1.7.jar’

Max Connection Lifetime

dbcp-max-conn-lifetime

-1

The maximum lifetime of a connection. After this time is exceeded the connection will fail the next activation, passivation or validation test. A value of zero or less means the connection has an infinite lifetime.

Max Idle Connections

dbcp-max-idle-conns

8

The maximum number of connections that can remain idle in the pool without extra ones being released. Set to any negative value to allow unlimited idle connections.

Minimum Evictable Idle Time

dbcp-min-evictable-idle-time

30 mins

The minimum amount of time a connection may sit idle in the pool before it is eligible for eviction.

Minimum Idle Connections

dbcp-min-idle-conns

0

The minimum number of connections that can remain idle in the pool without extra ones being created. Set to or zero to allow no idle connections.

Soft Minimum Evictable Idle Time

dbcp-soft-min-evictable-idle-time

-1

The minimum amount of time a connection may sit idle in the pool before it is eligible for eviction by the idle connection evictor, with the extra condition that at least a minimum number of idle connections remain in the pool. When the not-soft version of this option is set to a positive value, it is examined first by the idle connection evictor: when idle connections are visited by the evictor, idle time is first compared against it (without considering the number of idle connections in the pool) and then against this soft option, including the minimum idle connections constraint.

Time Between Eviction Runs

dbcp-time-between-eviction-runs

-1

The time period to sleep between runs of the idle connection evictor thread. When non-positive, no idle connection evictor thread will be run.

Kerberos User Service

kerberos-user-service

Specifies the Kerberos User Controller Service that should be used for authenticating with Kerberos
