Hi, All
I have a basic question regarding Global Names & SID.
I am about to install Oracle 8.1.7 EE on WIN2K that is on a LAN (two machines), and that will only be accessed through the local machine (ie the machine that it is installed on).
In the forums I see alot of questions regarding problems with Global Names and SID, and in posting this question, I am hoping to avoid these problems (ORA:12560, ORA:12154).
Specifically, when installing Oracle, given the operating system environment information provided above, what Global Name & SID should I use when prompted during installation? And, if applicable (to this environment), what is the significance of the difference between dbname.domain.com, dbname.domain, and dbname.world.
Any insight is much appreciated.

Well,
There is nothing much to worry about global name and db domain and stuff like that, if, if you are going to have a single database.
Usually, in earlier versions of oracle u need to prefix it .world in your tnsnames.ora, while configuring the service names. But with these new versions you need not.
I have the same conf. (8.1.6 on Win 2k) and i have given the global name and service name as same - prod.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the speedy response!
So, during installation at the prompt, you used Global Name: Prod, and SID: Prod? Exactly as I have written it?
Thanks again.
