Table 9 Outbound non-Transactional  eWay —JDBC  Connector Settings (Continued)
| Name | Description | Required Value | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| MaxPoolSize | Specifies the maximum number of | A valid numeric value. The default is | 
| 
 | physical connections the pool | 10. | 
| 
 | should keep available at all times. 0 | 
 | 
| 
 | (zero) indicates that there is no | 
 | 
| 
 | maximum. | 
 | 
| 
 | If the pool size is too big, you may | 
 | 
| 
 | end up with too many connections | 
 | 
| 
 | with the database. The pool size | 
 | 
| 
 | depends on the transaction volume | 
 | 
| 
 | and response time. | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| MaxIdleTime | Specifies the maximum number of | A valid numeric value. The default is 0. | 
| 
 | seconds that a physical connection | 
 | 
| 
 | may remain unused before it is | 
 | 
| 
 | closed. 0 (zero) indicates that there is | 
 | 
| 
 | no limit. |

Connection Retry Settings
Details for the Connection Retry Settings used by the external database are detailed in Table 10.

 | database. This setting is used in | 
 | 
| 
 | conjunction with the 'Connection | 
 | 
| 
 | Retries' setting. | 
 | 
| 
 | For example: In the event that the | 
 | 
| 
 | eWay cannot connect to the | 
 | 
| 
 | Database, the eWay will try to | 
 | 
| 
 | reconnect to the database 10 times | 
 | 
| 
 | in 5 seconds apart when the | 
 | 
| 
 | Connection Retries is 10 and the | 
 | 
| 
 | Connection Retry Interval is 5000 |
