TNS alias resolution weirdness

edited May 18, 2009 10:24AM in Database Networking (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered
I'm having an issue with TNS alias resolution that I cannot understand on instances residing on one server.

I've specified a NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN parameter in the sqlnet.ora and for instances on that particular server, it does not appear to be appended to the unqualified TNS alias.  See thread below:

Used parameter files:
M:\oracle\ora90\network\admin\sqlnet.ora

Used LDAP adapter to resolve the alias

Howdy, Stranger!
