Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Oracle Names Server
There are absolutely no issues in Oracle Names. We have been using it for
several years (ever since the 1st version, which was a bit 'challenging').
I would suggest you look into installing the OID/LDAP facility for Service
Name Resolution. Oracle has been saying that Oracle Names will not be
supported after 9i. Damagement may not like to hear that, and will not
appreciate all your hard work in getting Oracle Names working. I don't think
Oracle charges for OID/LDAP if used solely for Service Name resolution. So
there is no cost involved in that approach either. If you get the OID/LDAP
working, Dgmt reward (cross-fingers) you for being pro-active :)

Hi All,
I'm testing and planning implemetation of oracle names and would like some advice/pointers/gotcha's to put into my plan for damagement.
Main reason:
Ease of maintenance (We now have tnsnames file all over the place)
Planned setup:
Two names servers both in physically seperated locations (more if needed
for performance reasons).
One database to store all data (no need to synchronise anymore) on one of
our systems with failover (EMC storage). Failover has been tested and works
OK Down time is very short.
Questions:
Is this setup a situation that can live up to real world action?? Anybody
having similar setup?
Any gotcha's I should be aware of (I have this running on a laptop and a
desktop and it looks fine but....)
What are the security issues I should be aware of (everybody can connect to
every database with just the name of the databasse)
Does anybody have a PRO/CON list already
TIA Jack
