OID Replication - Unable to test Oracle Net connections to a node with SQL

Question

Hi all,
I am implementing OID replication and currently stuck on the verification part where I should use SQL*Plus to verify if TNSNAMES.ORA is configured correctly.
First server installed as a regular OID installation. Second server is installed with a high availability option.
Server1: name: server. Domain: domain.com
Server2: name: oid1. Domain: galaxy.com
My TSNAMES.ORA:
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server.domain.com)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
OIDREP =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = oid1.galaxy.com)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
So, the configuration instructions state to test both WITH and WITHOUT the domain name:
IMPORTANT: Test Oracle Net connections to all nodes from each node in the DRG.
Use SQL*Plus. Test both system@net_service_name and system@net_service_name.domain.
IF THIS DOES NOT WORK, THEN ASR REPLICATION SETUP WILL NOT BE SUCCESSFUL!
So, my SQL*Plus statement "*sqlplus "sys/abcd1234@orcl as sysdba"* works just fine.
But the command "*sqlplus "sys/[email protected] as sysdba"* fails with ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
Thanks in advance for your input.

Vijay,
Thank you for your help. I was able to connect to my first instance without any issues. My next problem is updating TSNAMES with the second server, I am still getting the error message when connecting via SQLPLUS. May be my SQL statement wrong?
sqlplus sys/[email protected] as sysdba" or sqlplus sys/abcd1234@OIDREP as sysdba Neither one is working :(
Here is my TSNAMES. For now, I am using IP addresses
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.192.141)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
ORCL.DOMAIN.COM =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.192.141)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
OIDREP =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.192.137)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
OIDREP.GALAXY.COM =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.192.137)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
