Export tnsnames.ora File Entries to Directory Server

Net service names already configured in a tnsnames.ora file can be exported to a directory server. The export is done on a per-domain basis.

Exporting a tnsnames.ora file creates net service name in the currently selected Oracle Context in the directory. If you need to change the Oracle Context, choose Command > Directory Server > Change Oracle Context.

To export net service names stored in a tnsnames.ora file to a directory server:

1. Choose Command > Directory > Import Net Service Names. The Directory Migration Wizard starts.

2. Choose Next.

   If multiple domains were detected, the Select Domain page appears. Continue to step 3.

   If the net service names are not domain qualified, the Select Net Service Names page appears. Skip to Step 4.

3. Select the network domain whose net service names you want to export, and then choose Next. The Select Net Service Names page appears.

4. Select the net service names from the list to export, and then choose Next. The Select Destination Context page appears.

   In the Select Destination Context page, perform the following:

   a. From the Directory Naming Context list, select the directory naming context that contains the Oracle Context. The directory naming context is part of a directory subtree that contains one or more Oracle Contexts that contain Oracle entries.

   b. From the Oracle Context list, select the Oracle Context to which you want to export the selected net service names.

   c. Choose Next. The Directory Server Update page appears with the status of the export operation.

5. Choose Finish to dismiss the Directory Server Migration Wizard.
