    Parameters:
    
    maxLifetime - Number of milliseconds.
  - setMaxUseCount
```
public void setMaxUseCount(int maxUseCount)
```
    Sets the maximum number of times a connection can be used before it is replaced in the pool. The default value is -1. A value of -1 indicates that there is no limit.
    
    Parameters:
    
    maxUseCount - Maximum usage count.
  - setMaxUseTime
```
public void setMaxUseTime(long maxUseTime)
```
    Sets the maximum amount of time a connection can be in use before it is closed and returned to the pool. The default value is -1 indicating that there is no limit.

  - setPretestConnections
```
public void setPretestConnections(boolean pretest)
```
    Sets whether connections are pretested before they are allocated to requesters. Pretesting verifies that the connection is still valid. By default, connections are not pretested.
    Note: The pretestConnections property is not fully effective until IBM i 7.1.
    
    Parameters:
    
    pretest - If connections are pretested before being allocated.
    
    See Also:
    
    AS400.isConnectionAlive()
  - setRunMaintenance
```
public void setRunMaintenance(boolean cleanup)
```
    Sets whether the Toolbox does periodic maintenance on the connection pool to clean up expired connections. If setThreadUsed is true, the Toolbox starts an extra thread to perform maintenance. If setThreadUsed is false, the Toolbox will perform maintenance on the user's thread when it uses the connection pool. This method and setThreadUsed can be set in interchangeable order. The default value is true.
    
    Parameters:
    
    cleanup - If expired connections are cleaned up by the maintenance daemon.
  - setThreadUsed
```
public void setThreadUsed(boolean useThreads)
```
    Sets whether the IBM Toolbox for Java uses additional threads. The Toolbox creates additional threads for various purposes, including:
    - for communication with the host servers; and
    - for running pool maintenance.
    Letting the IBM Toolbox for Java use additional threads will be beneficial to performance, but turning threads off may be necessary if your application needs to be compliant with the Enterprise Java Beans specification. The threadUsed property cannot be changed once the pool is in use. This property affects AS400ConnectionPool and not AS400JDBCConnectionPool, which is written to the JDBC specification. This method and setRunMaintenance can be called in interchangeable order. The default value is true.
    Parameters:
    
    useThreads - true to use additional threads; false otherwise.
