If you are running your JDBC thick client on the same server, I imagine
it would work fine, but if you are running jdbc thin drivers on a
separate server where it does not use tnsnames, then an alias would not
work, right ?

 

Good tip about v$parameter2- I did not know that existed.

Can additional service names be defined for a non-RAC 10g database,
similar to how multiple service names can be configured for RAC ?  This
would be to support JDBC connections, so a tnsnames alias would not
work.   I have looked over various docs and I do not see any way of
creating them- and I tried DBCA as well as that allows managing service
names on a RAC db, but that option is disabled for a non-RAC db. 

 

Hi Jon,

 

I've never run into an issue using tns aliases with JDBC.

 

Maybe I've just been lucky.

 

What problems did you encounter?

 

As for service names, I've been using several service names for quite
some time without issue.

 

BTW, in case you don't already know, if you use v$parameter2 rather than
v$parameter

to lookup service_names, they will each appear on a separate row.
