AI Summary

  • Connecting TEST/UAT database from Dev VM is a quick solution for issues that can only be replicated in higher tiers.
  • Just-in-time access is needed for troubleshooting efforts and running unplanned queries.
  • Steps to connect to the database include adding the Dev VM IP address to the firewall, selecting the reason for access, and obtaining login details from LCS.
  • Create a new login for debugging in the TEST database using SQL Server authentication login.
  • Make changes to the web.config file in the AOS Service WebRoot folder to connect the Dev VM to the TEST database.
  • Ensure both the VM and higher environment are in the same version before connecting.
  • Take precautions such as removing pending changes, syncing the code base, and reverting web.config changes after debugging.
  • JIT access expires after 8 hours, and a new access needs to be generated if the database is refreshed within that time frame.
