Product: OpenFusion Notification Service

Version: ALL

Description:

What is the maximum number of clients which can be connected to the Notification Service?

Resolution:

The Notification Service by default imposes no limit on the number of clients that can be connected.

In practice, the number of clients that can be connected simultaneously will depend on the operating system. It will be limited by the number of threads and TCP/IP sockets that you are allowed by the operating system. Different users may have different limits.

The event channel does have two Admin properties that can be used to control the number of proxies that are permitted to exist. These are "MaxConsumers" and "MaxSuppliers".

The "MaxConsumers" administrative property defines the maximum number of consumers that can be concurrently connected to an event channel. The consumers are counted as all the proxy suppliers of all the consumer administration objects managed by the event channel.

The "MaxSuppliers" administrative property defines the maximum number of suppliers that can be connected concurrently to an event channel. The suppliers are counted as all the proxy consumers of all the supplier administration objects managed by the event channel.
