DVM: Limit number of active user JDBC connections, and queue excessive connections

Problem:

We are having an issue when a user is issuing multiple SQL queries in batch at the same time to DVM server, using jdbc connection, which is resulting in storage shortage errors, and failure of the query.


Workaround:

IBM support has provided sample to limit number of connections, and fail if the limit is exceeded for a user.


Proposed solution:

We would like to try to mitigate this issue by restricting the user to execute a limited the number of SQL queries at a time, and queue if the limit is exceeded.


Benefit:

When submitting multiple queries, they will queue and not fail.

This will also restrict the amount of resources used by the user, and not overload the server.
