TDS Stage is now pointing to ermtst8i. This is an Oracle 8 version of the TAGG/ERMS database, current as of last Friday. Only the FT-West, GD-West, and FT-Denver desks are active. So far, everything seems to be working (nothing's blown up). As far as I know, no curves have been loaded into the curve cache. The current plan is to migrate to Oracle 8i in 2 weeks, so now's the time to find problems.

This is the server < machine that we will use to perform the Oracle 8i testing. I < modified the local.env file and the appropriate start-up < scripts to crank up the server processes. < < Here is an environment file which can be used on the local < desktops to communicate with the 8i test machine. We will use < the database ermtst8i and TIBCO port 7555 for the test. < < << File: 7555.env << < The server start-up script starts View Aggregators for < FT-West, GD-West, and FT-Denver and one roll-up aggregator < for ALL-WEST. Once the database refresh is done this weekend < I recommend that Trac uses the DeskBookAdmin tool to remove < the other desks from the ALL-West roll-up. Be sure that you < are pointing to the right database instance! < < Other tasks that need to be done: < * Check the View Aggregator log file to be sure that the < database load process has worked. Right now, because the < field Index_Based_Deal_Flag does not existing < egs_sensitivities, DBExceptions are being raised and < written to the log files. < * Run Launchpad, Position Manager, DealTicker, and < TradeBlotter to make sure that they are all working < correctly. Save some new deals using TradeBlotter and see < the changes and highlighting in real-time views. < * Run TDSPosnLoad to force a reload of at least one of the < aggregators. < * Run Curve Manager. Publish some curves and save them to the < database. < * Validate that the caches are working correctly. < * Check out that the various utility programs like < DeskSecurity, DeskBookAdmin, etc all work correctly. < * Check that Hawk works, especially the DBInfo agent. I < believe that is the only one that accesses the database, < but I'm not sure. < < Mike will be the central point of contact for any problems < discovered. Please let him know if you encounter issues or < have questions. < < This is just my idea for general test plan. Feel free to add < items that I may not have thought about. I believe that the < entire test should not take more than two to three hours, but < let's do our best to make sure that the migration will not < have any negative effects on TDS. < < Bill Fortney < 3-9952 <
