Database Servers (Connection Items)

The Database Servers section will list all the database connections based on settings in the OneStream Server Configuration Utility and all the databases that each connection is pointing to.

From the database connection items, the user can expand the SQL server elastic pool if one is configured, view hardware and server properties, view audit info, look at SQL server metrics, and run some diagnostic commands to track down performance issues.

Behaviors

Sample database connection Behavior tab:

The behavior will show up if SQL Server Azure and Elastic Pool are configured and used. Using the Behavior tab, you can increase or decrease the resources available to an Elastic Pool based on resource needs. When rescaling Elastic Pool DTUs, database connections are briefly dropped. This is the same behavior as occurs when rescaling Elastic Pool DTUs for a single database (not in a pool).
