Description
When using an OBDC driver to connect to our database (and I imagine this is true of other drivers too), when attempting to initialize, if the connection string isn't correct (i.e. credentials), it attempts 5 times. Due to security standards, this causes the User account to be disabled at the database level. Attempting 5 times looks to be hard coded in the createInitialConnection() function.
Describe the solution you'd like
Make the number of connection attempts configurable in the settings.
Describe alternatives you've considered
We cannot update the number of connection attempt failures due to security policies.
