Hi all,
I'm trying to test a client connect string with two different hostname address (where just one is on) , so, like explain in Oracle Net Manual (8.1.7) I expect Net8 should try to use the first host available.
The behavior it's right only if the node in on-line status is the first one, otherwise, reverting the two hostname I get tns-12535 Operation time out.
It seems , It just try the first address and without switch to try the second one!!!

This is the connect string :
DBX =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS =(PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = node1)(Port = 1521))
(ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS =(PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = node2)(Port = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID=DBPD) (SERVER=DEDICATED))
))

Any suggestion ?

Thanks in advance
