Oracle Connectivity Test

To test for connectivity to an Oracle server, complete the following steps.

1. Run the test program DCTEST, located in the Domino® program directory, appropriate to your operating system.
2. Select Oracle server from the program menu.
3. When the program prompts for an Oracle user name, password, and service name, enter a valid user name, password, and service name.
4. After entering a user name, password, and service name, the program attempts to connect to the Oracle 8 server.

   A message appears telling whether the test was successful or not. You can retry a connection by entering "Y" at the Try Again? [N] prompt. This provides the opportunity to reenter all of the required information, for example if you misspelled an entry or entered the wrong user name, password or service name.
