Database Connection Pool connection selection strategy changed to FIFO in JBoss EAP 6.x/7.x

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • EAP 6.x/7.x is keeping more database connections alive than EAP 5
    • IdleRemover is not removing as many connections in EAP 6/7 as EAP 5
  • EAP 6.1.0 is keeping more database connections alive than EAP 6.0.x
  • Database connections are not closed (timed out), even if the load is less and not all connections are needed
  • Connections are not closed even if the CLI command /statistics=pool:read-attribute(name=InUseCount) shows that there is a minimal load

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP)
    • 6.x
    • 7.x
