Subject: PMON seems to not close sessions  in a timely manner eg "Max processes(50) reached"
Organization: Fat City Network Services, San Diego, California
Precedence: bulk
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain;	charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

I have a developers stored procedure making repeaded calls
(logons/request for data and logoff) 
Each call takes only seconds but it seems like PMON dosnt close the
process in a timely manner, leaving what look to be ghost process. If a
few users hit the same app the processes go to = 50 then I get the
dreaded "ORA-nnn max processes (50) reached"

I can "watch" processes increse and decrese with v$session and
v$process, they just dont seem to close quick enough. (however, they do
eventually close)

Any ideas what to look for. Ive searched Google and for parameters for
PMON to no avail, hence I bring my delimma to the list


I think I'd like to tell PMON how frequently to check for completed
requests.

thanks and happy holidays
bob
