Обсуждение: Idle Connection force-close ?

Hi, all.

We are running PostgreSQL 7.2.2  (7.4.1 in a few weeks).  We have a
pesky legacy application which periodically leaves open idle
connections.  (I know... fix the application).  In the short term, I
would like to find out if the database engine has a time-out
 configuration option for idle connections where it would force-close
the connections.

Is there such an option?

No.  If the connection is live and idle, it'll sit there forever.  If
the client is actually gone but the connection stays alive, then
tcp/ip will eventually shut it down.
