So I have RAC setup ( Solaris 2.8 , Veritas DBE/AC 3.5 MP1 and HDS disks if you are interested) and I am attempting to setup my failover and loadbalancing from a client.

I brought down VLDBN1
and Thought I should fail over to VLDB2 ... but I did not.

Here is what I have in my tnsnames.ora:

VLDB =
(DESCRIPTION =

    (FAILOVER=ON)
    (LOAD_BALANCE = yes)
    (ADDRESS_LIST =


      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.250.25)(PORT = 1521))

      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.250.26)(PORT = 1521))

)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = VLDBN2)

       (FAILOVER_MODE=
         (BACKUP=SECONDAY)
          (TYPE=select)
          (METHOD=basic)
          (RETRIES=5)
          (DELAY=5)
       )

)
)
SECONDARY =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.250.26)(PORT = 1521))

     (CONNECT_DATA =
        (SERVICE_NAME = VLDBN2)

)
)

Any ideas?
