How to Destory connections from the Pool?

Question

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to destroy/refresh a connection id from the DBPool using just a javacode that either refresh the whole pool or just one specific connection.
We are using a DB cluster environment and once one of the Database Servers goes down, the connection continues to point to the old DB Server. We are testing if the connection is still pointing to a valid DBServer (using a simple <i>select getdate()</i> statement (the DBMS is SQLServer 2000). The problem is that even if we close the connection object in the JavaCode, the physical connection still points to the old DB IP address, and we want to kill that connection from the DBPool.
We know that once the connection id is destoyed(using the DESTROY_CONN command of the J2EE engine), a new connection is created for the right DB Server.
We are using the following versio of EP:
6.0.2.37.0.Enterprise_Portal_Support_Package_2
Thanks.

Hi,
There is no difference in calling a transaction from module pool and report . The statement
Call transaction tranaction name works similarly in both the cases . The only thing you need to take care is your program flow in Module pool.
For calling transaction set the parameters of the transaction and on using the call transaction statement it will call the transaction withe the set values. use skip initial screen option to execute it from your program. This entire code needs to be written in PAI event where you will be handling your OK codes.
Hope this helps.
