Add FAILOVER=ON and it will check the next address if the previous
one has failed. Alternatively, use SOURCE_ROUTE=ON and it will check
every single one of them if the previous one fails.

Is having multiple addresses valid for a tns entry?
A client provided this to me and initailly looked invalid
alias =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.5.141.22)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.5.141.22)(PORT = 1526))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.5.41.34)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.5.41.34)(PORT = 1526))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.5.41.36)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.5.41.36)(PORT = 1526))
)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = name)(SERVER = DEDICATED))
)
>From initial testing, if the first server is not avaliable the entire
connect fails. Personally Ive never seen this and from checking my
reference, this does NOT seem to be valid
Any input would be most welcome
Thanks!
