## About server pooling

OpenText Dimensions CM server pooling enables multiple OpenText Dimensions CM application servers to be started before clients connect to a OpenText Dimensions CM server. It improves connection time for clients, as the application servers are already initialized and connected to the OpenText Dimensions CM database.

Server pooling is automatically started upon OpenText Dimensions CM startup. For details on how to manually start server pooling and reconfigure its parameters, see System administration.

In the Administration Console, you can view which users are connected to the OpenText Dimensions CM server and what resources they are using. You can use this information to monitor the server pool and make adjustments in the configuration file, listener.dat. For example, you may want to change the minimum and maximum parameters to control the number of server processes in the pool.

Note: To view server pooling statistics, you can also use the `getpoolstats` command. For details, see System administration.

If you are not using the default TCP port of 671 for the OpenText Dimensions CM Listener Service, you must specify the appropriate port number.
