Hello Steve You can achieve this using two address lists. my-database = (address_list = rac with failover and load balancing) (address_list= DG)Sql net will try the first address list and if it can not connect to any of the addresses it will use the second address list.See oracle net services reference 10.2, chapter 6.

Does anyone have a working example of how this might be done? I have failover working on the cluster fine it's just the DG part that is throwing me for a loop. Ideally I'd like to switchover to the standby with no changes to the application server tnsnames files.
