Types

Reconnection

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Fails Deployment

Boolean

When the application is deployed, a connectivity test is performed on all connectors. If set to true, deployment will fail if the test doesn’t pass after exhausting the associated reconnection strategy

Reconnection Strategy

The reconnection strategy to use

Reconnect

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Frequency

Number

How often (in ms) to reconnect

Count

Number

How many reconnection attempts to make

Reconnect Forever

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Frequency

Number

How often (in ms) to reconnect

Pooling Profile

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Max Active

Number

Controls the maximum number of Mule components that can be borrowed from a session at one time. When set to a negative value, there is no limit to the number of components that may be active at one time. When maxActive is exceeded, the pool is said to be exhausted.

Max Idle

Number

Controls the maximum number of Mule components that can sit idle in the pool at any time. When set to a negative value, there is no limit to the number of Mule components that may be idle at one time.

Max Wait

Number

Specifies the number of milliseconds to wait for a pooled component to become available when the pool is exhausted and the exhaustedAction is set to WHEN_EXHAUSTED_WAIT.

Min Eviction Millis

Number

Determines the minimum amount of time an object may sit idle in the pool before it is eligible for eviction. When non-positive, no objects will be evicted from the pool due to idle time alone.

Eviction Check Interval Millis

Number

Specifies the number of milliseconds between runs of the object evictor. When non-positive, no object evictor is executed.

Exhausted Action

Enumeration, one of:

  • WHEN_EXHAUSTED_GROW

  • WHEN_EXHAUSTED_WAIT

  • WHEN_EXHAUSTED_FAIL

Specifies the behavior of the Mule component pool when the pool is exhausted. Possible values are: "WHEN_EXHAUSTED_FAIL", which will throw a NoSuchElementException, "WHEN_EXHAUSTED_WAIT", which will block by invoking Object.wait(long) until a new or idle object is available, or WHEN_EXHAUSTED_GROW, which will create a new Mule instance and return it, essentially making maxActive meaningless. If a positive maxWait value is supplied, it will block for at most that many milliseconds, after which a NoSuchElementException will be thrown. If maxThreadWait is a negative value, it will block indefinitely.

Initialisation Policy

Enumeration, one of:

  • INITIALISE_NONE

  • INITIALISE_ONE

  • INITIALISE_ALL

Determines how components in a pool should be initialized. The possible values are: INITIALISE_NONE (will not load any components into the pool on startup), INITIALISE_ONE (will load one initial component into the pool on startup), or INITIALISE_ALL (will load all components in the pool on startup)

Disabled

Boolean

Whether pooling should be disabled
