Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database Installation Guide
Installation directories, files and the daemon port
Installation of TimesTen must be performed by the chosen instance
administrator user. The instance administrator owns all files in the
installation directory tree. Only the instance administrator can operate
the instance.
Installation directories
The installer suggests default destination directories, based on the user
performing the installation.
Instance home directory
The instance may be installed in any directory to which the instance
administrator has sufficient permission.
On Unix, the installer suggests
/opt/TimesTen/tt70
as in previous
releases. For non-root users, the installer suggests the home directory of
the user, usually defined by the environment variable $HOME.
On Windows, the installer suggests the directory pattern as used in
previous releases of TimesTen,
C:\TimesTen\tt70.
The TimesTen documentation refers to the installation directory as
install_dir
.
Daemon home directory
The “home” or current working directory of the running the main
TimesTen daemon is known as the daemon home directory. This
directory must be owned by the instance administrator, with
rwxr-xr-x
permissions on UNIX systems. The daemon verifies both the
permissions and ownership of this directory when it starts up.
On UNIX, the installer suggests the use of
install_dir/info
if
installed as non-root or
/var/TimesTen/tt70
if running as root.
On Windows, the
install_dir\srv\info
directory is used for this
purpose, just as in previous releases.
Password file
If access control is selected at installation time, user and password data
is stored in the file
install_dir/srv/info/ttpasswd
.
Initially, this file contains a single entry for the instance administrator.
The presence of this file indicates to the daemon that Access Control has
