Configure Multiple Address Options
When a database service is accessible by multiple listener protocol addresses, it is important to specify the order of how the addresses are to be used.
For example, the addresses can be chosen randomly or tried sequentially.
When multiple protocol addresses have been configured for a net service name
or database service, the following options may be configured:
To configure multiple address options:
- In the navigator pane, expand Net8 Configuration > Directory > Local or Service Naming.
- Select a net service name or database service. The right pane displays the
current destination service and address list.
- In the Address Configuration box, click Advanced. The Address List Options dialog box appears.
- Clear Use Options Compatible with Net8 8.0 Clients if this configuration is for a release 8.1 client.
- Select the option appropriate for the address list, then click OK.
- In the right pane, click Apply.
