Summary This article clarifies the use of hard_limit and soft_limit configuration settings.
Article Number 37012
Environment Orbix 6.3 All Supported Operating Systems
Question/Problem Description
Do the soft_limit and hard_limit configuration settings apply for each Orbix process or for a sum of Orbix processes running in an Orbix domain?

Clarifying Information The limits (plugins:iiop:incoming_connections:hard_limit and plugins:iiop:incoming_connections:soft_limit) are used to control active connection management in Orbix.
Error Message
Defect/Enhancement Number
Cause
Resolution These settings apply to each Orbix process for which these settings have been configured and not to the sum of Orbix processes running in an Orbix domain.

If these settings have been configured in the global configuration scope then these settings will apply to each process started in your Orbix domain.

Accordingly if these settings have been configured e.g. in the iona_services configuration scope, then these settings will apply for each Orbix service configured in the Orbix domain (e.g. CFR, Locator, Naming Service, etc..) and not to the sum of these services.
