Hi there,

according to Oracle note # 151972.1 DCD does not work on windows nt systems (for my understandings)

"...Dead connections are cleaned up only when the server is rebooted and the database is restarted..."
It is further stated in this note: to find out how well DCD works on NT depends on the client`s
protocol implementation.
What does that mean ? For my opinion the DCD does not work at all if the server has to be rebooted ! Or
is it just a question of configuration ? As i mentioned - we are talking about windows nt systems.

Thank you
