Recommended settings for connection pooling in DB2

Toad for IBM DB2
1

Hi,

Users of our application are getting the below errror:
Error:ERROR [57030] [IBM][CLI Driver] SQL1226N The maximum number of client connections are already started. SQLSTATE=57030 ERROR [57030] [IBM][CLI Driver] SQL1226N The maximum number of client connections are already started.

When I tried to research it found out that the error is caused because of connection pooling and following settings can be changed in DB2 to troubleshoot the error:

MAXAPPLS
MAXAGENTS
MAX_CONNECTIONS
MAX_COORDAGENTS
NUM_POOLAGENTS
NUM_INITAGENTS
(MAX_COORDAGENTS) = MAXAGENTS
(MAXCAGENTS) = MAX_COORDAGENTS
(MAX_CONNECTIONS) = MAX_COORDAGENTS

Can anyone suggest the recommended settings for the above items, for enterprise wide application with thousands of users.

Thanks !
Siddhesh.

There are many factors that are related to determining the best settings in each environment. I would recommend that you refer to IBM documentation on this topic including, but not limited to:
