Manage Server: Cache

This Cache tab enables you to configure local caching options for a running Oracle Names server. The values you specify remain valid only for the current session.

Cache Operations

Flush Foreign Region Data
Forces the Oracle Names server to clear all remote region information from the Oracle Names server's local cache checkpoint file, which has a default of ckpcch.ora
Reload from Region Database
Forces the Oracle Names server to check for any data changes made in the region database immediately. If there are changes, the Oracle Names server reloads all database service names, net service names, global database links, and aliases into the region checkpoint file, which has a default of ckpreg.ora.
Checkpoint Cache
Forces the Oracle Names server to write its cache to its checkpoint file, which has a default of ckpcch.ora. This file contains the addresses of Oracle Names server in the local administrative region, as well as remote regions.
This operation cannot be performed immediately. A wait time must be specified in the Wait field.
