[SOLVED] Need to creat an 'alias' for my RAC scan name

Hi all,

I need to address the rac database using another scan-name in addition to the originally defined one.

EG: ORACLE-prod (the configured scan name) points, in the corporate dns, to ip adresses 10.184.27.101, 102 and 103.

Can I create another line in the DNS that links the same ip adresses to another name?

EG: ORACLE-new pointing to ip adresses 10.184.27.101, 102 and 103.

And how are the database connections affected if they are made using ORACLE-new:1521/sername instead of ORACLE-prod:1521/sername?

I would like to make the two names live together... I need them all because lot of applications using another DB are going to be consolidated onto ORACLE-prod but are using the hostname "ORACLE-new" for their DB connections. Changing hostnames and connect string on every AS or host is unpracticle...

Howdy, Stranger!
