Ok, I have a monitoring product that I am trying to connect to an oracle
instance. In test it works great.
The monitoring product needs the server-name, the instance-name and port with a
userid/password.
In production, we use HP Serviceguard for HA/failover capabilities. So there
is a hierarchy of service name for both servers and service name for each
server.
So:
proddb.company.org is the hierarchy name,
proddb01.company.org
proddb02.company.org (currently the primary server)
When I put in server-name(either proddb or proddb02) , instance-name, port and
userid/password, it doesn't fail the monitor verification
but I get an error saying that it is an invalid userid/password.
I tested the userid and password right on the server and it works fine.
I tried it in several different combinations and sometimes it fails
verification right away saying ORA-12154:TNS: could not resolve the connect
identifier specified So I get that part knowing some combinations are
definitely wrong. But what is confusing is when it passes verification but
can't connect. And again, I have tested the userid and password, so it's not
that.
Any ideas?
