service_name and SID connection string question

edited Jul 7, 2020 2:19PM in Database Networking (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered ✓

Can someone help me understand why I am able to connect to our test system with service_name and sid but in our other environment we cannot.

I am not sure how all the different parameters are interconnected. Networking has always been a little head scratching to me with oracle

Does the listener come into play at all? We are using dynamic registration, so no sid or service names listed.

works

sqlplus dave/xxxxx@"(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST=192.168.1.129)(PORT =1521))(CONNECT_DATA =(Service_name = orcl.skynet.jump)))"

sqlplus dave/xxxxxx@"(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST=192.168.1.129)(PORT =1521))(CONNECT_DATA =(SID = orcl)))"

Howdy, Stranger!
