  2. Go to domain_home\config\fmwconfig\ovd\default.

  5. Change <maxPoolSize> from 10 to 100 or 150. For example:
    <pageSize>1000</pageSize>
    <referals>false</referals>
    <heartBeatInterval>60</heartBeatInterval>
    <timeout>120000</timeout>
    <maxPoolSize>100</maxPoolSize>
    <maxPoolWait>1000</maxPoolWait>
    <maxPoolChecks>10</maxPoolChecks>
    <quickFail>false</quickFail>
    <escapeSlashes>true</escapeSlashes>
    <kerberos>false</kerberos>
    <useDNS>No</useDNS>
