In previous versions of the Policy Server, two ODBC connections were created for each Policy Server service. The following registry setting overrode the default value and indicated the maximum total number of ODBC connections created by the Policy Server for all services:
Netegrity\SiteMinder\CurrentVersion\Database\UserDirectoryConnections
For r12.0 SP2 Policy Servers, the maximum number of connections is determined dynamically, based on five times the maximum number of threads specified in the Policy Server Management Console. (See the Performance group box of the Settings tab in the Management Console.)
If you are upgrading to the r12.0 SP2 Policy Server from a 5.x Policy Server, remove the UserDirectoryConnections registry setting. If you do not, and the value specified by the setting is less than the maximum number of threads calculated by the Policy Server, your Policy Server logs will contain many error messages. These messages will indicate that the value of the registry setting overrides the maximum number of connections calculated by the Policy Server.
