Test TimesTen for a Non-Replicated Configuration

To test TimesTen, a test Pod is created. It runs a script that attempts to connect to all of the TimesTen databases (the replicas) by using TimesTen's client/server access. If the script can connect to the database, the script then looks at internal metadata to verify that the database is functioning properly. If the test succeeds, the test Pod is deleted.

The test connects to the database as the test user. You define this test user in the testUser metadata file. This user has CONNECT privileges, but does not have any other privileges. This limits the test and the test user's access to the database. If you do not define a test user, the test fails.

The test verifies TimesTen databases are up and running and fully operational.

Let's test TimesTen.

  1. Confirm the ttclassic release.
    helm list

    The output is similar to the following:
