12545, 00000, "Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
// *Cause: The address specified is not valid, or the program being
// connected to does not exist.
// *Action: Ensure the ADDRESS parameters have been entered correctly; the
// most likely incorrect parameter is the node name. Ensure that the
// executable for the server exists (perhaps "oracle" is missing.)
// If the protocol is TCP/IP, edit the TNSNAMES.ORA file to change the
// host name to a numeric IP address and try again.

this is the config of tnsnames.ora

ORCL_TAF =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.200)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.201)(PORT = 1521))
(LOAD_BALANCE = yes)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl_taf.indo.com)
(FAILOVER_MODE =
(TYPE = SELECT)
(METHOD = BASIC)
(RETRIES = 180)
(DELAY = 5)
)
)
)

rmandb =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.101)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl_taf.indo.com)
)
)

Note - 192.168.1.200 and 201 is the vip and 192.168.1.101 is the node ip. i have tried both, but is gives same error

Because they are sometimes connected, sometimes fail, so it should not be tnsnames configuration issues, so i checked metalink, found oracle a small bug:

Note: 364855.1: RAC Connection Redirected To Wrong Host / IP ORA-12545

so i changed the local_listener on both nodes now it is connected perfectly

thank you for reply

Welcome to the forum. Please read the OraFAQ Forum Guide and How to use code tags and make your code easier to read

It looks as though the creation of the auxiliary instance failed. Is there not more more information than you have shown? There will also be a n alert log for the auxiliary instance.
