Fail over problem

Post by Andrea » Fri 23 Jun 2006 08:36

I have installed .Net Oracle Direct on a mobile PDA (PSC Falcon).
I have enabled failover on a oracle 8.1.7 Database. However, the failover is active only on Normal PC connection (the SELECT * FROM V$SESSION;
returns inactive failover on connection from PDA).
Of course, the failover function on PDA is not called.
Is there any parameters to write inside the Oracle connection string?
Can anybody help me?

Thank You in advance
Andrea

Mobile version of OraDirect .NET doesn't support Fail over.
Also it is not supported in non-mobile version if Direct = true.

In the handbook this (that isn't supported) is not clear. :-(

However are there any workaround that can be applied to obtain a similar feature?

Transparent Application Failover is not supported without Oracle client.
In the present version of OraDirect .NET Mobile it is not possible to restore current session after reestablishing connection to the server.
