vCenter max connections

[Xavier Naveira <xa...@ongame.com>]

Hi,

I'm building a web application that uses deltacloud to poll status for 
the servers on a vCenter 5.0.0

If I launch too many queries concurrently vCenter stops answering them, 
I've googled around and it seems taht vCenter has a max concurrent 
connections limit that is 40.

I know that you could argue that this is not a deltacloud issue but if 
you are pursuing total transparency for the deltacloud users it would be 
a really nice feature that deltacloud itself does the management of this 
limit.

What do you think?

I think you're right + this is 'good to known' :-) We can expose the
--max-conn thin option using 'deltacloudd' command, so when you start DC 
you can do:

$ deltacloudd -i vsphere --max-conn 40
