Hi Everybody , I am struck with a problem that we have a production database 'X'. Now i have created a test database 'T' and did'nt configured another listener to it!
The issue is when i cam connecting to oracle through sqlplus i am directly connecting to Test database 'T' but not the production database 'X'----ofcourse i can login to production DB afterwards. but initially i want to access the production database 'X'. Can anyone guide me ?

From which tool? SQL*Plus?
From which server (database or client)?
Are both database on the same server or not?

Michel

Both databases on the same server.
and from sql* plus
when i connect to sql* plus as ---- / as sysdba and after connecting if i check select * from v$instance then the instance_name would be test 'T' database but not production DB ... So i want to login as production initially from the start onwards.

So set ORACLE_SID to the default value you want in your OS profile.

Be the way, having a test and a production database on the same server is not wery wise.

The one that allows you to do what you want.

Please read OraFAQ Forum Guide and How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read.

The first part (in balck) is in a DOS windows, the second one (in white) is from a Windows window. There is NO relation between them.

Do ALL of this in DOS box using sqlplus.exe and you will see;
Also, before calling sqlplus, post the result of "SET".

Both are SQL*Plus (and I should add in 11g you have ONLY the DOS one).
Windows SQL*Plus settings are defined in the registry (HKLM\Software\Oracle\<your home>), you can set there the default ORACLE_SID.
