It
would be interesting to see if the pre-connect helps you out or not.. We are
getting ready to work thru similar issues/testing...

I am
afraid, there are not much alternatives you can think of. Even the SELECT fail
over
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

PGA to the second
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

overcome
this
by enabling pre-connect.

timeout .. Big Question
Hi all,
here is a (hopefully) tricky one ...
We have a two node RAC (9202), two
applications run on either side, no problems there. We have a business
critical process that runs all the time on node T2. This process needs to have
a set response time or it affects business. And it is written in VB. Currently
we have already handled the situations when a node is down (or machine is
down) it fails over to the other side and continues.
What we need to cater for is when DB is up,
but sick (i.e. not responding). We need to be able to specify a timeout in the
queries and when we get no response in the specified time, we need to
automatically fail over to the other side.
The queries in the application are
optimally written, they are sub-second or single digit second queries. So, a
query taking a long time would be about 10-15 seconds.
While we are fishing for ideas, has anyone
implemented anything like this? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance <FONT
