9.4 True Cache Restrictions with Oracle Global Data Services

Deploying True Cache with Oracle GDS has the following restrictions.

  • When adding True Cache services in GDSCTL, the -failover_primary option requires the patch for bug 36740927.
  • If the application uses the JDBC programming model, both the primary database service and True Cache service names must be fully qualified with the domain name (for example, sales.example.com and sales_tc.example.com). This is because GDS has a default domain name and is different from the database's domain_name parameter. This also limits the fully qualified service name to a maximum of 64 characters.
