Connection Pooling Tab

The Connection Pooling tab allows you to alter the connection retry wait time and connection timeout period for a selected driver when using connection pooling. It also allows you to enable and disable Performance Monitoring, which records a number of connection statistics.

Connection Pooling Timeout

The Connection Pooling Timeout section sets the connection pooling time-out, in seconds, for the selected driver. To set connection pooling attributes, double-click the driver name. In the Set Connection Pooling Attributes dialog, you can set a time period that unused connections remain in the pool and also activate connection pooling for the selected driver.

PerfMon

The PerfMon section determines whether performance-monitoring counters for connection pooling are enabled or disabled. For more information about performance monitoring, see Microsoft's ODBC Programmer's Reference.

Retry Wait Time

The Retry Wait Time section specifies, in seconds and in fewer than six numerals, how long the ODBC Driver Manager waits before making connection retries to a database server.
