Magento或Zend是否缓存数据库连接字符串？

Question

I have a Magento app running on a pretty standard Apache/Zend platform. I am pointing Magento to a new db by modifying the local.xml, however it does not seem to be honoring my changes, even after a restart of the app.

More specifically, I have db1 and db2. I am changing Magento to point to db2, however the app continues pointing to db1. As a matter of fact, I can completely shut down db2, and even though the app is pointing to db2, it doesn't care...and continues running just fine. If I shut down db1, the app fails, even though it's config has it pointing to db2.

I am hoping that it is just a caching setting somewhere in Magento or Zend that I am unaware of, but I find it odd that it persists after an app restart.

Any thoughts?

Yes, the entire Magento configuration tree (of which local.xml is a part) gets cached. Use the UI in System -> Cache Management to clear the configuration cache, or manually blow away your cache storage (i.e. remove `var/cache/*')
