Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> SQL query to get SID? (SID != service name?)
Hi, this is probably a real simple question... If I can get
a connection to the DBMS via SQL-PLUS, with the tnsnames.ora
entry listing the service name, not the SID, is there a query
I can run to get the SID? I want to make an oracle thin JDBC connection,
and the URL wants the SID. The service name doesn't seem to work.
I would have though that the service name was the same as the SID,
but apparently not?
thanks
Joe
