Initial and Minimum Pool Size
The minimum number of connections in the pool. This value also determines the number of connections placed in the pool when the pool is first created or when application server starts.
Maximum Pool Size
The maximum number of connections in the pool.
According to the above 2 definitions, if the min pool size is 1 and max pool size is 100 then:
- When the pool is first created or when application server starts then only one connection is newly created.
- There will be many requests hitting concurrently in the day and will definitely require more connection which will be made in the course of the day which can reach max to 100. But while these connections are made they are not removed from pool until the application server shuts down or we remove the entire pool?
Am I right for these two points?
