OID Connectivity for Oracle
OID allows Oracle DBAs to centralize name management, instead of us all having our out-of-date local connection data in our many separate tnsnames.ora
files (tnsnames can still be used as a fallback if needed).
Example contents of sqlnet.ora
:
#SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH=(LDAP,TNSNAMES)
Example contents of ldap.ora
:
DIRECTORY_SERVERS=(oidsrv01:3060:3131,oidsrv02:3060:3131)
DEFAULT_ADMIN_CONTEXT = "dc=oracle,dc=local"
DIRECTORY_SERVER_TYPE = OID
In this example, oidsrv01
and oidsrv02
(and more as needed) have to be replaced by actual OID server names, of course.
