+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++ + Create a TimesTen in memory database +++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Assumption: TimesTen database software has been installed Oracle

user has been used for TimesTen installed. So OS user Oracle is the administrator user for creating TimesTen database. 1. Define a Data Source Name (DSN) ============================== DSN defines the configuration of the database and must be defined before creating Database.

Modify the sys.odbc.ini [Add DSN anywhere in the ODBC DATA Sources section]

2. Specify New data Source definition =================================== edit sys.odbc.ini to add source definition and save
Driver - location of the TimesTen direct linked ODBC driver DataSource - location and name of the database files LogDir - directory for the transaction logs PermSize - Permanent partition of the database size in MB TempSize -Temporary partition of the database size in MB DatabaseCharacterSet - Character Set of the database

3. Verify that database daemon is running ================================

4. ttisql to connect database and create the database store ============================================

So mono_ttdb database has been created and loaded into memory. Check the TimesTen in memory Database status +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [oracle@cloud bin]$ ./ttstatus TimesTen status report as of Tue Nov 19 05:09:33 2013 Daemon pid 4161 port 53396 instance tt1122 TimesTen server pid 4170 started on port 53397 -----------------------------------------------------------------------Data store /u01/app/ttdata/datastores/mono_ttdb There are no connections to the data store Replication policy : Manual Cache Agent policy : Manual PL/SQL enabled. -----------------------------------------------------------------------Accessible by group dba End of report [oracle@cloud bin]$ ./ttisql mono_ttdb Copyright (c) 1996, 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates.
