Share the connection pool using weblogic

Question

I want to make shared connection with the JDBC driver, I read that the follow syntax:
jdbc:oracle:thin:<USER>/@(PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <HOST>)(PORT = <PORT>)))(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = <SID>) (SERVER = SHARED)))
would let me have the JDBC connections shared with the others regular connections.
Is it true ?
Where to set such parameters in weblogic ?
I'm currently using the JDBC driver ( SERVICES->JDBC->DATA SOURCES-> connection pool (tab) ) configured in the following manner:
URL: +jdbc:bea:oracle://[dbIP]:1521+
Driver Class Name: weblogic.jdbc.oracle.OracleDriver
Properties:
user=ETL
portNumber=1521
SID=LIVDEV1
+serverName=[dbIP]+
Thanks

Answer 1

A 'shared' connection has to do with whether the DBMS spawns a separate OS process at the DBMS end to handle every single connection, or whether it spawns fewer, letting one DBMS-side process handle multiple logically distinct user connections, at some performance cost.
Depending on the DBMS configuration and platform, this may be optional, the default, or impossible. As to clientside properties, try setting
ServerType=shared.
And just to be clear, this has nothing to do with how/whether the connection is to be used at the application end. It will
always be considered as a single logical user, not a port for multiple independent client threads to use at once....
