More on RAC and RLB
15 Mai 07 07:32 | Urs Meier - Blog on IT
My last RAC tests with runtime load balancing and .NET were not successful. ODP.NET always distributed the workload in a round robin manner. Now I know why: It is a AQ bug. I had more than one IP address defined (my real one and one for my vmWare). Since...

04 Oktober 06 09:39 | Urs Meier - Blog on IT
With Oracle 10g R2 FAN and FCF we can load balance connections and requests over a "service". The service is defined to be run on one or more instances on the RAC. Services take a CLB_GOAL LONG or SHORT and are created with DBMS_SERVICE.CREATE_SERVICE...

Oracle 10g RAC load balancing
03 Oktober 06 07:51 | Urs Meier - Blog on IT
Lately we have done some tests with Oracle 10g R2 load balancing and connection failover for RAC. Both features are mainly useful for application servers. The bottom line: the JDBC driver from Oracle works, the ODP.NET provider not yet. Load balancing...
