I'm using dynamic DataSources... specified with domain scoped variable(s). Whent the server restarts I'm noticing strange behavior... in some cases, the domain vars die, but in most cases they are still alive.
I used a taf to clear domain vars manually, and restarted the server. The STARTUPURL that I set in t4server.ini which creates the domain vars I need shows it is setting them in the log, but then when I try to use a file that requires it, it fails... another taf used to view vars shows that the domain vars are as blank as when I cleared them before the restart. If I run the taf that the STARTUPURL points to manually... it sets all the vars I want and they are accessible, and after the server is restarted, they are still alive. I'm awfully confused. The default timeout is set to 120. I'm setting a variableTimeoutTrigger to the same taf as STARTUPURL. My big concern here is that sometimes these domain vars are dying and because they are being used to indicate a database connection - pretty important things will break in the middle of the night after a server restart without my knowing... a serious problem as far as I'm concerned. I'd think that setting the variableTimeoutTrigger to the STARTUPURL taf would ensure that even if they die that they still get rebuilt, but considering that the variable assignments dont seemt to be happening anyway other than in the logs... I'm at a loss for how to ensure 100% uptime of these vars. (Maybe the ultra-unelegant solution of putting the STARTUPURL taf on a cron... hoping that it behaves differently than when the server restarts). Any ideas?
