As I understand what you're doing, you don't need to do anything "out of the ordinary". Global database name is still whatever you want. Listener, tnsnames, all the same. The only "difference" here is that you're getting your server-name to ip address resolution by way of your local hosts file instead of DNS. No big deal there, that I can see.
