Allocate

Controls when an access service allocates conversations with the target database system.

Syntax

Allocate=[connect | request]

Default

connect

Values

  • connect allocates a conversation when the client connects and holds it open for the duration of the client connection.

  • request allocates a new conversation each time the client application sends a request and deallocates the conversation after each request.

    Note: There is a large performance penalty when using the request setting.
