  • 1.  ODM DEPLOYMENT IN OKE - ORACLE DATABASE CONNECTION

    Posted Thu February 20, 2025 07:06 PM

    Good afternoon, I am deploying an ODM version 8.11 in an OKE environment which must have a connection to an external Oracle database, but when configuring the parameters for the Helm installation it does not take the value of the Oracle type database. I appreciate your help in telling me how to configure these parameters so that the installation takes the external Oracle database. The following lines are added to the Helm execution script:

    --set externalDatabase.type=Oracle
    --set externalDatabase.secretCredentials=secretodmdb
    --set externalDatabase.url= 'jdbc:oracle:thin:@//hostname:port:SID'

    Hello,

    Have a try with : 

    --set externalDatabase.type=oracle

    instead of

    --set externalDatabase.type=Oracle

    BR,

    Mathias

    Hello, thank you very much for your collaboration. I have already tried both ways and it still does not work. I appreciate your ideas to solve this problem.

    Hello,

    I just checked and unfortunately the externalDatabase.url parameter is not available with ODM8.11. It's delivered since ODM8.12 meaning ODM on K8S 23.1.0.

    But perhaps you can manage it with the delivered parameters serverName/databaseName/port ?

    The last solution is to use the externalCustomDatabase following https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/odm/8.11.0?topic=database-configuring-custom-external by providing the entire liberty datasource configuration.

    BR,

    Mathias

    Good morning, I tried with version 9 and 8.12 but I have the same behavior, the external database indication is skipped and the pod is created with an internal database, what could I be doing wrong? I appreciate your help.

    Hello,

    is there a specific reason for using an older version of ODM (8.11) instead of the current one (9.0.0.1) ? Clients adopting ODM on Kubernetes tend to stick to the latest versions.

    Hello, we are actually using the rules for version 8.8.1 on premise and we do not want to have any major problems with the update.
