JedisPool number of connections issue

am new to redis and use a JedisPool in my multi-threaded app.

 JedisPoolConfig config = new JedisPoolConfig();
 config.setMaxActive(200);
 config.setMaxIdle(200);
 pool = new JedisPool(config,"localhost",6379,-1,jedisPasswd);

I want to have 200 connections with out getting expired, but at any time I don't have more than 2 to 3 connections, Do I miss anything here.

Thanks.

Have you tried using setMinIdle() ?
