Symptoms

JDBC sessions are not deallocated by the 'per.irc.candidateSelfService.server.VisitorAM' application module.   The number of JDBC connections for the VisitorAM is high and seems to keep increasing over time.   This can be verified using the SQL noted below:

REM Connections by machine and instance
select s.machine, s.username, s.module, s.inst_id, count(*) how_many
from (select distinct PROGRAM, PADDR, machine, username, module, inst_id from gV$SESSION) s, gv$process p
where s.paddr = p.addr
and p.inst_id = s.inst_id
group by s.machine,s.username, s.module, s.inst_id
/

One can additionally notice that the number of sessions taken by the GUEST user is high and tends to increase in number over time.   This can be verified using the SQL noted below:

REM Number of sessions per user
select user_name, count(*) How_many_sessions
from icx_sessions icx, fnd_user u
where icx.user_id = u.user_id
and disabled_flag != 'Y'
and PSEUDO_FLAG = 'N'
and (last_connect + decode(FND_PROFILE.VALUE('ICX_SESSION_TIMEOUT'), NULL,limit_time,0,limit_time,FND_PROFILE.VALUE('ICX_SESSION_TIMEOUT')/60)/24) > sysdate
and counter < limit_connects
group by user_name
order by 2 desc
/
