Starting the Cache Agent

The cache agent is a TimesTen daemon process that manages many of the cache-related functions for a TimesTen database. You can manually start the cache agent.

Start the cache agent with the following:

  • In TimesTen Scaleout, use the ttGridAdmin dbCacheStart command to start the cache agent on all instances in the grid. See Start a Cache Agent for TimesTen Scaleout in the Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database Scaleout User's Guide.

  • In TimesTen Classic, call the ttCacheStart built-in procedure as the TimesTen cache administration user: 

    Command> call ttCacheStart;

    You can also start the cache agent from a command line by running a ttAdmin -cacheStart utility command as a TimesTen external user with the CACHE_MANAGER privilege: 

    % ttAdmin -cacheStart cache1
