Timesten - How to (load|unload) the database in memory ?

Timesten Component

About

The load of the database in memory is dependent of the ram policy.

How to

Load and unload the database with ttAdmin

You can still manage it with the ttAdmin utility with the -ramLoad and -ramUnload option. It will place the database in memory, available for connections.

Unload

  • Disconnect all applications from the database: TimesTen databases remain loaded in shared memory as long as any applications or TimesTen agents (such as the cache or replication agents) are connected to them.
  • If replication has been started, pause replication on the databases, and then stop replication on the database that you are unloading from memory
  • Verify that the RAM policy allows the database to be unloaded. If the RAM policy is set to always or inUse, change it to manual. When the RAM policy is set to manual, unload the database using the command:
ttAdmin -ramUnload myDSN;

If the RAM policy is inUse and a grace period is set, set the grace period to 0 or wait for the grace period to elapse.

Load

ttAdmin -ramLoad myDSN;

Get the Status of the load with

ttAdmin

[oracle@Exalytics-01 ~]$ ttAdmin -query DI_TT_AGGR_STORE;
RAM Residence Policy            : manual
Manually Loaded In RAM          : True
Replication Agent Policy        : manual
Replication Manually Started    : False
Cache Agent Policy              : manual
Cache Agent Manually Started    : False

when the value of “Manually Loaded In RAM” is:

  • True: the RAM is loaded
  • False: the RAM is unloaded

ttstatus

With the ttstatus utility

In Process of being unloaded

Action: Just wait
