Create Non-Replicated TimesTen Classic Databases

This example shows you how to create and deploy a non-replicated TimesTenClassic object in your Kubernetes namespace. It shows you how to monitor the TimesTen Operator as it uses the information in the object's definition to create independent TimesTen databases.

Create the YAML manifest file for the TimesTenClassic object.
```
vi norepsample.yaml

apiVersion: timesten.oracle.com/v4
kind: TimesTenClassic
metadata:
  name: norepsample
spec:
  ttspec:
    storageClassName: oci-bv
    storageSize: 10Gi
    image: container-registry.oracle.com/timesten/timesten:22.1.1.34.0
    imagePullSecret: sekret
    replicationTopology: none
    replicas: 3
    dbConfigMap:
    - norepsample
```
Note the following:
- The storageClassName is oci-bv. Replace oci-bv with the name of your storage class.
- The storageSize is 10Gi. Replace 10Gi with the amount of storage that needs to be requested for each Pod to hold TimesTen.
- The image is container-registry.oracle.com/timesten/timesten:22.1.1.34.0. Replace image with the name and location of your TimesTen container image.
- The imagePullSecret is sekret. Replace sekret with the image pull secret that Kubernetes needs to use to fetch the TimesTen container image.
- The replicationTopology is none. Do not change this setting for non-replicated configurations.
- The replicas value is 3. Replace 3 with the number of TimesTen Pods (each containing a TimesTen database) to provision. The value must be between 1 and 3. If you omit replicas, the default is 1.
- The dbConfigMap specifies the norepsample ConfigMap created in About the Examples.

Deploy the TimesTenClassic object into your namespace.

kubectl create -f norepsample.yaml

The output is the following:

timestenclassic.timesten.oracle.com/norepsample created

Monitor deployment.
1. Check status of object.
```
kubectl get ttc norepsample
```
  The output is similar to the following:
```
NAME          STATE             ACTIVE   AGE
norepsample   NoReplicasReady   N/A      43s
```
  The provisioning starts, but is not completed as indicated by the NoReplicasReady state.
2. Wait a few minutes. Then, check status again.
```
kubectl get ttc norepsample
```
  The output is similar to the following:
```
NAME          STATE               ACTIVE   AGE
norepsample   SomeReplicasReady   N/A      74s
```
  The provisioning continues. As evidenced by the SomeReplicasReady state, some of the databases are ready, but not all.
3. Check the status again.
```
kubectl get ttc norepsample
```
  The output is similar to the following:
```
NAME          STATE              ACTIVE   AGE
norepsample   AllReplicasReady   N/A      2m54s
```
  The provisioning process completes. Databases are up and running and operational. The TimesTen Operator transitions the norepsample object to the AllReplicasReady state.

(Optional) Review the state transitions.

kubectl get events

The output is similar to the following:

During the provisioning process, the TimesTenClassic object and TimesTen Pods transition from and to various states.

Verify the existence of the underlying objects.

1. StatefulSet:

kubectl get statefulset norepsample

The output is similar to the following:

NAME          READY   AGE
norepsample   3/3     8m30s

2. Service:

kubectl get service norepsample

The output is similar to the following:

NAME          TYPE        CLUSTER-IP   EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)             AGE
norepsample   ClusterIP   None         <none>        6625/TCP,8888/TCP   8m58s

3. Pods:

kubectl get pods

The output is similar to the following:

NAME                                 READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
norepsample-0                        3/3     Running   0          9m15s

norepsample-2                        3/3     Running   0          9m15s
...

4. PVCs:

kubectl get pvc

The output is similar to the following:

NAME                          STATUS   VOLUME                                     CAPACITY   ACCESS MODES   STORAGECLASS   AGE

Connect to one of the databases.

From your development host, establish a shell in the Pod.
```
kubectl exec -it norepsample-0 -c tt -- /bin/bash
```

Connect to the database. Insert a row in a table.

Congratulations! You successfully created and deployed a non-replicated TimesTenClassic object. The non-replicated TimesTen Classic databases are up and running and fully operational.
