문제

I have created a linked Oracle server in SQL Server 2012 using Oracle Provider for OLE DB and TNSNAMES.ORA (the Oracle database is clustered and, as far as I know, no other connection method works with clustered servers). This works fine.

Now the Oracle database has been moved to another cluster, so I edited TNSNAMES.ORA. Oracle SQL Developer works fine.

It seems that SQL Server doesn't re-read TNSNAMES.ORA but stores the connection details internally, because even after a server reboot all queries time out.

Does anyone know of a solution other than deleting and recreating the linked server ?

(That's what I did to resolve my issue, but it shouldn't be that hard !)

해결책

How you solved the issue is the way to solve it because we can't modify a Linked Server. And SQL Server doesnt read the tnsnames.ora.

Though the solution is drop and recreate we can use SQL Management Studio to edit the Drop and Create script as follows:
1. Right click on the linked server.
2. Choose Script Linked Server as.
3. Choose New Query Editor Window.
4. Now we can modify the script as our requirements and run.
This simply drops and recreates the Linked Server.

Thanks

다른 팁

Yes, it is necessary to drop and recreate the linked server. This takes just moments, so the hit is very small.

Likewise, there is no reason to believe that SQL Server would try to read the internal contents of a different relational database.
