Limits the number of concurrent connections to the server.

Syntax

{ dbsrv11 | dbeng11 } -gm integer ...

Applies to

All operating systems and database servers.

Remarks

Defines the connection limit for the server. If this number is greater than the number that is allowed under licensing and memory constraints, it has no effect.

The database server allows one extra DBA connection above the connection limit to allow a user with DBA authority to connect to the server and drop other connections in an emergency.
