Abstract:
In some database systems, multiple servers may be deployed with different configurations based on stacks, applications, or services associated with the servers. Such systems may perform server validations to determine whether the servers are deployed with the correct configurations. A testing server may validate one or more target servers using metadata and parameters of the target servers. The testing server may receive parameters corresponding to a configuration file, and the testing server may select a subset of validation routines to perform for each target server based on metadata in the configuration file. In this way, the testing server may perform the same validation process for each target server, but may perform a different subset of validation routines. The testing server may execute code containing the selected subset of validation routines remotely against the target server, and may determine whether the server was configured correctly.
