Using Server Pools
FlashCONNECT Administrator’s Guide 43
• The system administrator specifies which server pool a system supports using
the WWW-START command or via server pools configuration.
• The programmer specifies which server pool is used to service a request by
setting the w3ServerPool variable.
• FlashCONNECT assigns the connection to any database server that supports the
requested server pool. If no server pool is specified, the default server pool is
used.
For server pool debugging assistance, see Debugging Server Pools
.
The Web servers are directed to different database servers as displayed in this
example:
WARNING—
• Server Pool names are case sensitive.
• Also, ensure that the server pool name is not an ADI or data level in
the w3lines file.
CAUTION—The database server pool name can be a maximum of 15 alphanumeric
characters and must include at least one alpha character in the name.
NOTE—w3ServerPool is a synonym for w3HostName. In this document, all
w3HostName references have been changed to w3ServerPool.
