Connect-Time Failover For Primary/Standby Configuration in 11gR2 with Same Service Name and Port: OR
Dear MOS Community,
I have a question regarding the client-side connect-time failover for a primary/standby configuration in 11gR2 where both primary and standby have the same (static) service name and port, because after a switchover the clients receive an ORA-01033 error when trying to connect...
My setup is as follows:
- Primary database failoverDB (this is both unique name and database name) is running on hostA with service name failoverDB.
- Standby database with same database name (but unique name failoverDBstdby) is running on hostB with same service name as primary database.
- Although the database name is the same for primary and standby, the unique names of both databases differ; but the database name shall be the same as well as the service name(s) as well as the port.
