Just a couple of notes w/ names I just learned of when our primary Oracle
names server failed. Change the default failover time using these
parameters in your sqlnet.ora.
NAMES.INITIAL_RETRY_TIMEOUT = 5 # Wait # Seconds before going to
next nameserver, def=15
NAMES.REQUEST_RETRIES = 2 # Number of retries for nameserver,
def=5
hth,
Gene
PS. 75 seconds sure appears to be a long time to fail, esp. when the help
desk keeps calling :).

Bill,
With Onames you don't need the TNSnames.ora file anymore. It does
resolution of database service names automatically no matter if it's a
database
or client doing the lookup. Now previous versions of ONames did a very nice
job
of allowing you to create global database links, but version 8.1 messed that
up
REAL bad.

Has anyone had success gettin db links to resolve service names using Oracle
Names? seem to recall reading something that required the local TNS entry
for db links to successfully resolve, but also read that Names automatically
creates a global db link for every service name registered with it.
