Tns entry on client machine for a physical standby!

Hi all.
i am working on 10gR2 on RHEL4.I have created a physical standby on the same host. The primary and the standby database has different sid as prod and prodsb
can i have one tns entry on the client machine so that they can connect to the database even after teh switchover or failover??? or will they have to change the connection string while connecting to the database??

Hi, you can use Oracle Transparent Failover, please review the next link for get more information.

How to add tns entry in names server

Hi,
Can anyone tell us, How to add tns entry in names server
Thanks

In the Net Manager utility, in the left-hand pane left click Oracle Names Servers, left click on your nameserver.
Click the "+" button in the upper left, that should be enough to get you started- sorry, all our 9i installs have gone away, can't exactly recall the nix X gui version of client program, but I think* its netmgr, should be in OH/bin.
If you're running a java OEM console that cames with 9i clients, Net Manager is available on that little Butler tab.
And for the command line version, running the namesctl utility- you can save a tns entry with the connect string and run it in a file, just like sqlplus, with an @filename:
vi newtns.txt
register newtns -d (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=...(SERVICE_NAME=NEWTNS.MYCO)))
$ namesctl
@newtns.txt
query newtns *
reload -- nameserver sync
query newtns *
exit

How to Connect Oracle Database without using TNS entry

Hi,
i need to connect Oracle Database server from my pc without using the TNS entry. How to do that?
Regards,
007

You have marked the question as answered, so it means you can answer my questions:
1.How do i check that i can make easy connect to the server or not, I mean is it configured on Server ?
2.Can I make connection with easy connect without having Net Services software installed on the client ?
3.What if I am not able to access sqlnet.ora ?
4.Is there any difference in connect string, which is based upon OS for easy connect ?
5.How do i use global database name, if it is configured ?
6.What are pros and cons of using easy connect ?
7....
20....
I think this are those 20 questions which John is talking about.

Data Services ORA-12154 - TNS - Entries o.k.!

Hi Experts!
There is a problem when executing a job:
- Windows Server Enterprise 2007 Service Pack2
- 64 - bit Operating - System (Business Objects Dataservices was installed in directory "C:\Programm Files (x86)" )
- Oracle Client ist installed on Server and Client
- all TNS - Entires are entered in tnsnames.ora - File (Client and Server)
- Source: Oracle 9i
- Target: Oracle 11g
- Designer 12.2.2.3
- JobServer 12.2.2.3
- JobEngine 12.2.2.3
- Repository 12.2.2.0000
In Designer - Tool we are able to preview Data (Source and Target) in Client AND Server, so TNS - Entries should be correct (Client and Server).
We have installed a Designer on Client AND Server, the problem and the behaviour is the same on both sides.
When executing the job this message appears:
"OCI call <OCIServerAttach> for connection <BOHAI_PROD> failed: <ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier
specified>."
A TNSPing for TNS - Entries is o.k.! (Source and Target)
Any Help?
Thanks!

Hi,
I changed the Logon settings of the Data Services Windows - Service to "Local account".
The problem is solved.
Anyhow, can you tell me how to use TNS Listner Services. I don't konw this Service.
Thank you very much!
With kind regards!

Obtaining TNS entries from PL/SQL

I read somewhere that one can get TNS entry definitions via PL/SQL.
We currently develope/maintain a project on Oracle 9.2.0 which interconnects to at least 3 other projects running oracle instances. The problem here is that we have multiple development, testing, BC/DR and production instances to keep track of. and we need to know the dblink definitions that each of our instances connects to. Obviously we can get the tnsname of the dblink from "select * from all_db_links", but using tnsping returns the definition of that tnsentry from our local client (ugh). we need to be able to write a small stored function to query the tns definition from the server itself to ensure we have the correct definition relayed.
Is this possible?

Not really... not in a nice clean and robust way.
PL/SQL itself does not have a command or standard package to enumurate the local list of TNS aliases in the tnames.ora file. And using UTL_FILE and parsing the tnsnames.ora file is not trivial.
Question though is why use the tnsnames.ora file on the server in the first place? If you db connectivity and management is driven at application level, then dealing with the actual db connection data externally (in a flat file) is a problem. So don't. Deal with it inside Oracle itself.
You can define a db link in Oracle using the actual connection string itself (which is what the TNS alias refers to).
E.g.
create database link orcl_test connect to scott identified by tiger using
'(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=10.0.0.1)(PORT=1527))) (CONNECT_DATA=(SID=orcl)(SERVER=shared)))';
At application level you can control the type of connection ito service name,/SID, TAF, shared/dedicated and so on.
Obviously there are pro's and con's both ways - using a tnsnames.ora file versus using the connection string directly. But in certain cases the pro's outweigh the con's.

Not using TNS entries correctly

SQLDeveloper Version 2.1.1.64. I have created TNS aliases to connect to individual RAC instances in my TNSNAMES.ORA file. From SQL*Plus, when I use the TNS alias to connect to a particular instance, I get connected to the correct one. When I use the same TNS alias with SQLDeveloper, it connects me randomly to any instance in the cluster.
I have correctly defined the location of TNSNAMES.ORA file in the Preferences. I am specifying just one server name and SID in the TNS alias so there is no way that TNS entry can connect to any other instance. I have only one TNSNAMES.ORA file on the entire computer. Oracle client version 11.1.0.7. The TNS alias for each instance is unique in the TNSNAMES.ORA file.
Any ideas on where SQLDeveloper is getting the wrong connection information from?
Thanks...
Arun Gupta

Actually the driver used depends on the
Tools -> Preferences -> Database -> Advanced -> Use OCI/Thick drivercheck-box; when you select TNS connection having this unchecked, SQLDeveloper parses your TNS file and then uses the Thin driver to connect.
I guess since in your situation this does not behave as expected there may be a bug in the thin driver, or in SQLDeveloper interpretation of the TNS file, so try to check the property i mentioned and see if it works OK.

Login Using tns entry takes more than one minute

Hi all,
I have created one 11g R2 database. I am trying to login to the instance and it works fine when I login using just the username and password. But when I try to login using tns entry its taking too much time to login. Also when I try to connect from a remote machine using Toad or any other client its getting timed out or takes too much time to login. Once I get connected everything works fine.
The Database is installed on Rehat Enterprise Linux Server relase 5.3

List of TNS entries

Hi,
Oracle 10.2.0.1
Windows xp
Is there any dict view/dbms package, by which i may get all the names of TNS entries in tnsnames.ora from client side and/or server side ?
Suppose tnsnames.ora is having following entries :
db1,.....
db2.....
So, i just want to get the names of tns entries in tnsnames.ora.
Thanks.

Suppose tnsnames.ora is having following entries :
db1,.....
db2.....AFAIK, there are no parameters for TNS, If dataguard broker configured, then you can see in FAL parameter, Other than you can see listener name from "LOCAL_LISTENER". I dont think there would be such faciity to look all the tns entries names, As this is specific to OS how you connect.

How to create tns entry

hi member
i have installled oracle 9i database and 10 g forms at my system in different drives of computer . but when i try to connect my forms with database i could not create connection between tables and forms.the error which displayed as tns could not resolve connection identifer i provide same username and password when it ask for database connection so plz help me in this regard .......thanks in advance

Database Connecting string can be your DB Name or Net Service name.
For example, in my tnsnames.ora, I have the following tns entries.
TESTDB=
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = TESTDB)
In the above entry, first line is the database connecting string i.e. TESTDB.
First you need to try connecting to sqlplus for successful connection.
C:\> tnsping testdb
If you see the success message means you can easily connect to the Database.
C:\> sqlplus scott/tiger@testdb
Here your scott user will be connected to the TESTDB database.

SQL Developer keeps pointing to old TNS entry Version 2.1.1.64

Hello,
We are using SQL Developer and we just changed our database from host X to host Z. We changed the TNS entry to point to host z but Developer keeps pointing to host x. It seems the entry is cached. We tried deleting the connection and restarting the application. Still no luck. My only thought is that the connection is cached. if true can someone point me to the file that contains the connection info? And if not, can someone provide a alternative resolution to the issue?
Thanks
Rondale

I agree with Turloch, I had a similar issue with SQL Developer 3. Even though I had the environment variable TNS_ADMIN, it basically ignored this variable and was referencing the first TNS_NAMES.ora file it found. I had to remove all copies except the one listed in my TNS_ADMIN variable before SQL Developer found the right one.
It would be nice if the tool would check the TNS_ADMIN variable like other Oracle products do.

How to manage TNS entry in the OID ?

Hello,
We are in our way to implement OID to replace multiple TNSNAME.ora files.
We are looking for the adequate tool to manage TNS entries in the OID.
Does anybody use a Web interface to manage such entry ? or the mandatory tool is Oracle Directory Manager ?
Is there another tool ?
Thank in Advance.
Jerome.

The tool you use to manage the tns entries in the OID is Net Manager.
Once you have ldap defined in your sqlnet.ora
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH = (LDAP, TNSNAMES)
And a valid ldap.ora file
DIRECTORY_SERVERS=(oidhost:389:636)
DEFAULT_ADMIN_CONTEXT = "dc=company,dc=com"
DIRECTORY_SERVER_TYPE = OID
You will then see that the directory and it's service names are available for management in the same way that the local tnsnames.ora entries.

Entries in Client 1 should reflect in Client 2

Dear All,
I have one ZTable(With MANDT field).I want such trigger which act when Update or Insertion made in Client 1 and should update entries in Client 2 Using IDoc.
plz suggest me the scenario.
Thanks,
RP

Using table maintenance generator, you can create events for different level of databases like database update,before inserting record etc. The menu path for this is , from se11 transation click utilities - > tablemaintenance generator(transaction : se55). From the table meaintenance generator menu click
1. Environment->modifications->events.
2. click on create new entries button.
Select the new event and assign a new perform name.
Press enter and click the editor button which will lead you to ABAP editor.
You can raise the registered events using the function module BP_EVENT_RAISE. The events have to be registered using transaction code SM62. You can code any valid abap statements in the perform.
