Environment
Novell GroupWise 8 Support Pack 1 Hot Patch 1
Situation
Novell recommends that Maximum Application Connections are set to at least the default of 2048.
Each GroupWise user uses one application connection when he or she starts GroupWise. Depending on what activities the user is doing in the GroupWise client, additional application connections are used. For example, the GroupWise Address Book and GroupWise Notify use individual application connections. The default maximum number of application connections is 2048. You should plan about 3 to 4 application connections per user, so the default is appropriate for a post office of about 500 users.
