Chapter 6 Managing Installed Software and Machines : New Application Domain Panel

New Application Domain Panel
See Working With Application Domains for more information.
Domain Name
The name for the application domain.
Domain Type
Lists the storage type to use for the application domain, either Repo or Database. The domain type is determined by the storage type used by the administration domain.
JDBC Driver
Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) drivers enable an application to connect with a database. Select from the following drivers:
Database DSN
The database DSN is required by the driver. It identifies which database is used for the session.
Database Username and Database Password
Enter the name and password required to connect to the database. The database user must have permission to:
Min Connections
When your application starts up, it initializes the number of connections to the database specified in this field. For optimal performance, this number should equal the number of subscribers you expect to connect to the database at any one time.
As you specify the minimum connections, keep in mind that these are per instance, and at startup, each instance will open its specified number of connections. Higher settings are better for application instances, but may have adverse results in the rest of the system. The correct setting is whatever the complete system can handle on a sustained basis without taxing other system resources.
Max Connections
The number of simultaneous connections cannot exceed the number set in this field. The database must be able to simultaneously handle the total maximum number of connections for all instances.
Be sure that you set Max Connections to a number greater than the number for Min Connections. Otherwise you will get an error message.
TIBCO recommends that you set Max Connection to a number equal or greater than the default value. TIBCO Administrator server needs a suitable amount of connections to initialize and to deal with domain data stored cross multiple tables in the domain. If the value of Max Connection is less than the default value, the operations may start up slowly and a timeout error may occur.
Table Prefix
The table prefix that is appended to each table used by the application. Can be no more than two characters.
Test Connection
Click this button to verify that the values you have provided result in a valid database connection.
