Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Profile (Idle Time Issue)
Have you set RESOURCE_LIMIT to true, i.e.
ALTER SYSTEM SET RESOURCE_LIMIT = TRUE Otherwise, the profile can be created and assigned to a user but it won't actually limit resource usage.
Is there any chance that the developers are configuring a connection pool on the middle tier? That would certainly account for 30-40 idle connections if that corresponds to the size of the connection pool they're using. It could also explain why some connections aren't being closed-- they may be used just often enough not to trigger the profile's idle limit. It would be a rare web application indeed that wanted to open and close a physical connection to the database whenever a web page was requested. If the number of idle connections keeps growing over time, of course, there is probably a problem in their application logic.

Subject: Profile (Idle Time Issue)
Hello:
I'm running into an issue where some developers using IIS and MS.Net are
developing an application which creates a connection each time it connects
to the database. After performing a task they dispose the connection (at
least they says they are). But it seems as though there is a build up for
idle sessions (30-40). I've created an assigned a profile with the
following:
CONNECT_TIME 120
IDLE_TIME 5
It seems like the connections for some of the users are still not being
terminated. I've double checked and they are all associated with the
profile. Any idea on how to terminate the idle instances? Any I missing
something?
Thanks In Advance,
Jay
