RDA Fails To Connect to DB as SYS

edited Sep 15, 2011 11:59AM in Database Utilities (MOSC) 6 commentsAnswered
To all,

I have two database instances on a Windows 32-bit, non-RAC, 11.2.0.2 home.

I can use SQLPLUS to successfully connect "SYS AS SYSDBA" to either instance through my TNSNAMES.ORA file. 

When I run RDA, I provide the correct SYS user password but RDA fails to connect and produces a TNS error.

When I condirm the RDA installation by running "rda.cmd -v", it returns: "No issues found"

Output from rda.cmd...

Processing Initialization module ...
Enter the password for 'SYS as SYSDBA': 
Please re-enter it to confirm:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
 The database to be analyzed (DEV2) does not appear to be accessible.

Howdy, Stranger!
