I just set up a new database on a 2-node 10g RAC. There are already some other databases installed and running, with working failover. For the new db the TAF does not work. As far as I understand (newbie :( ), the following entries in tnsnames.ora should suffice:
My testing procedure (instructions from an Oracle support employee) is as follows: I open two separate sqlplus sessions to the same instance, in either of them I execute a long select, followed by a shutdown abort in the other session. The expected result is the select to continue running and finish gracefully on the second instance - but instead I receive "ORA-03113 (See ORA-03113.ora-code.com): end-of -file on communication channel".
