I was wondering if you could help me debug a problem. I have the following
tnsnames on an app server. And when the primary listener is down it does not
attempt to connect to the second address.

was.world=
  (description =
    (load_balance=off)
    (failover=on)
      (address=(protocol=tcp)(port=1521)(host=tpdapp2))
      (address=(protocol=tcp)(port=1521)(host=tpdweb2))
    (connect_data=(service_name=was.world))
  )

Doing a tnsping from an appserver reports:

Attempting to contact (address=(protocol=tcp)(port=1521)(host=tpdapp2))
TNS-12541: TNS:no listener

But yet from that same appserver I can connect to the database on
the second server by fully qualifying the connect string:

(tpdapp1)# sqlplus
ejsadmin/ejsadmin@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=tpdweb2)(PORT=15
21))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=WAS.world)))
