17.5.2 Parameters to avoid failures
The following list of parameters is a subset of the entire list of parameters, and is designed to minimize application failures. The majority of these will also be application specific and should be adjusted based on observed application execution and configuration:
- Number of Connections to DB2: Default settings are likely too low. See Data sources.
- Allow thread allocation beyond maximum: When selected this might cause problems because the system becomes overloaded because too many threads are allocated. See Thread pool for more information.
- Use TCP Sockets for DB2 on Linux: For local databases. See Use TCP sockets for DB2 on Linux.
- Connection Pool Size: Ensure enough connections for transaction processing with Entity EJBs and for avoiding deadlock. See Connection pool size.
