Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Database Link creation with Global name TRUE
The global name of the database you are linking to is oracle.world. If you
have global_names=true, the name of the link should always be identical to
the global name of the database, as the global name should be unique within
a network.
Either you need to change the name of the link or of the database, or you
need to turn global names off.
