Testing FrontierBNL database connectivity

Test 1 retreving a table data from an Oracle Data base:

The first test consists on retrieve a table stored on an Oracle 10g version data base. The aim of this test is to verify the connection parameters on the FrontierBNL.XML servlet stored on the Tomcat Server were FrontierBNL installation resides. Thus, the script fn-req is used to retrieve the following query file test_query.sql.

    [cgamboa@gridui01 bin]$ cat test_query.sql
    SELECT * FROM Emp
    

• Results first test The script's results below presented can be devided into two parts -writting and connection request, retreiving data- as follows:

• Request and connection part

   [cgamboa@gridui01 bin]$ ./fn-req -f test_query.sql
   Entered:
   SELECT * FROM Emp

This part of the script shows that the request was satisfied by the Frontier proxy server which means that this request this table was previouly requested

Test 2 retreiving a updating a stale table data from an Oracle Data base*:

On this test the same data table is requested as in test 1. Here results shows a new version of the data so the request on test 1 was stale since the new results shows more fields on the data table resquested

Notice that in here a "Miss" occurs due to the fact that this table was in cache but stale, so the Frontier server request the data directly to the Oracle database.
