load balancing not working

Hi,
We're using jboss to connect to oracle RAC.
We have two nodes (ora1 and ora2 - both on oracle linux), but all the traffic goes to ora2. We'd like the traffic to go to both ora boxes.
It's not a network issue. I'm able to telnet from our application box to both oracle boxes.
Here is the string:
(ADDRESS_LIST=
(ADDRESS=
(PROTOCOL=TCP)
(HOST=10.23.1.125)
(PORT=1522)
)
(ADDRESS=
(PROTOCOL=TCP)
(HOST=10.23.1.126)
(PORT=1522)
)
)
(LOAD_BALANCE = on)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = dbstring)
)
)
Thanks!

I fixed the connection string:
(LOAD_BALANCE = on) was outside of the DESCRIPTION (). I moved it inside the DESCRIPTION part and added FAILOVER=on, and it started working.

Post your question in a JBOSS forum and ask how to configure JBOSS properly.

You should make sure that your RAC listener is able to balance the load. Use remote listeners and SCAN if possible.
