Oracle RAC failover does not happen
Hi
We have an application in Java which also has a C component. Both the components (Java based and C based) connect to a 2 node DBU cluster. Our tnsnames.ora consists of two services configured for one node each and the second node configured as backup. See the attachement.
With this configuration we see that when one of the oracle node is stopped the failover happens correctly for Java component but it does not happen for the C component.
We contaced Oracle who came back that it looks like a driver problem and oracle does not provide the drivers for Unix platform which we have to get from the platform vendor.
We suspect that we might be using some wrong version of the ODBC drivers which do not support TAF(Transparent application failover). Can you guys provide some information on how to check what prevents C code to failover. Any ideas and suggestions are most welcome.

We are using DL 380 running Redhat Advanced server2.1 as oracle cluster nodes and Hp rp5470 with HPUX11i running the application.

Re: Oracle RAC failover does not happen
Try this:
NODE.TEST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(FAILOVER=ON)
(LOAD_BALANCE=ON)
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = X.X.X.X)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Y.Y.Y.Y)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = shared)
(SERVICE_NAME = ssp)
(FAILOVER_MODE=
(TYPE=select)
(METHOD=basic)
)
)
)
The rest of it looks good, just the FAILOVER=ON is needed, and I think the LOAD_BALANCE was in the wrong place. Thanks. Brian
