Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: too many session open and you can't log in?
Ryan
The situation you are encountering is not something unusual. The way i
have configure my databases (both Dev and PROD) is that, we limit the
database connectivity by two methods
1. Profile where we mention the no of sessions_per_user
-AND-
2. dbms_resource (cpu resource etc)
