I didn't know about DataSourceRealm and will try that.

Not really an option since this is on a production server. On my test system using H2 I am not observing any issues. Currently on the production environment using PostgreSQL I have numActive = 13, numIdle =1 in jconsole. However using the following query I see that 16 connections are all idle. SELECT datname,usename,procpid,client_addr,waiting,query_start,current_query FROM pg_stat_activity ; Thanks for your help so far.
