I usually just go in and update it. Then you can set it to whatever you
want.=20
Update global_name
Set global_name =3D 'sid';

Subject: GLOBAL_NAME change
I am trying to switch to GLOBAL_NAMES=3DTRUE. If I have two databases =
and
set
global_names=3Dtrue on database A, on database B I need to ALTER =
DATABASE
RENAME GLOBAL_NAME TO sid.domain. Currently this database just has
GLOBAL_NAME as sid.=20
Now my question. If something goes wrong, does anyone know a way to
change the GLOBAL_NAME back to just plain sid? It seems that the ALTER
DATABASE RENAME GLOBAL_NAME command always helpfully slaps the domain on
the
sid. In theory since I'm not changing GLOBAL_NAMES=3DTRUE on database B,
nothing should be affected (like its existing links). But it bothers me
to
make an irrevocable change.
