Hi

While connecting to an oracle 9i instance, in the connect descriptor iam using INSTANCE_NAME and SERVICE_NAME. Is there are any other alternatives to connect to an oracle instance.

Thanx in advance

With Regards
Vara Prasad

If you are logged in the server hosting the database ,
you can Set your ORACLE_SID in your environment

export ORACLE_SID=mysid #(in unix. in windows set ORACLE_SID=mysid)
sqlplus scott/tiger # will connect to the instance defined by ORACLE_SID
