Value Range and Syntax
See Note: 538405
The parameter value can be greater than icm/max_threads, as inactive connections require no thread in the ICM.
The maximum number of sockets that one process can open is restricted by the profile parameter icm/max_sockets and ultimately by the operating system. This also restricts the value of icm/max_conn.
Each open ICM connection needs a socket. The SAP Web Dispatcher needs two sockets for one connection.
