Can you be more specific? I am curious also. When
I create a link to a database on 'xxx' it comes out 'xxx.cj.com' which is
correct but I began looking around and I don't see how it is working. In
our initxxx.ora file we have 'db_domain = WORLD'. In the sqlnet.ora file
we have
#NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = world# NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = cj.com
As you can see, both are commented out. We are on Sun Solaris and I
did find /etc/resolve.conf with:
domain cj.com.search cj.com.
Is that where it is coming from or is there some other place to look.
Also, if I change the global name like:
alter database rename global_name to test;
Then is comes out as 'TEST.CJ.COM'.
Since it is clearly ignoring my oracle parameters, it must be an OS level
thing. And, since it has always worked for me, I never really questioned
it. Now that Kathy has asked about it, I am sure there are many of us who
are curious about it.
One more thing, I couldn't find any reference to it in the installation
guide.
TIA,
John
