Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Does the client "hang" or "disconnect" when the server's
Hemant,
You are right it does get a timeout from the TCP stack, but the default for the connection timeout is 30 minutes. There is a sqlnet parameter where you can modify the timeout to make it shorter (sqlnet.expire_time?) Check metalink note 151972.1 for more info.

Please respond to
ORACLE-L
I'm sorry, but I really can't remember how an Oracle SQLPlus client is supposed
to behave when the database server's network interface is "pulled out".
We were testing a new Sun Cluster and tests for Storage FC Path Failure,
Instance Failure,
Node Failure, HeartBeat failure and single Network Interface failure all
went through.
However, when the engineer pulled out *both* network interfaces of the running
database server node, the SQLPlus client that had been running INSERT
statements
just "hung". It did not exit or error out till we killed the job. At the
next restart, of course,
it connected to the database which had already failed-over to the second node.
The question is : Why does the SQLPlus client "hang" ? Telnet sessions
also might
"hang" [couldnt' test this out as the Servers are Secured and we didn't
have SSH on the
client], till the user hits the ENTER key, but shouldn't SQLPlus get server
disconnect
from the TCP stack ?
