Thank you for the advice.
So how do I find out all the database links?
Is there a V$ view or dba_ view?

I would just keep in mind the security implications of this.  You are
effectively allowing full control to the remote database to anyone
connected to the primary database since the password is remembered.  Having
said that if the username/password combination is "system/manager" then
this additional security risk may not be such a problem.

From a performance / resource point of view there is no problem though and
I do keep database links between several development / testing environments
for moving data around quickly.  I wouldn't keep one with full access to
production though.

Regards,
      Mark.

I would generally keep the database link around if you think you may want
to use it again in the future.  It's not going to consume an appreciable
amount of resources if no one is using it.

Cool. It works.
So do I need to do "delete database link qa2" to clean up?
Thanks.

While connected to pr2:
create database link qa2 connect to system identified by manager using
'qa2';

That's one option.  There are other variations on database links.  See the
manual for more details.

You need a database link created between PR2 and QA2.
