db_domain
I have nothing set in my init.ora. I do not have a sqlnet.ora.
If I look at my etc/resolv.conf, I have DOMAIN belkin.com.
I did a find / -name us.oracle.com -print and came up with nothing.
So still dazed and confused. Can't find this anywhere. Real head scratcher.

What is the domain of the database in which you are creating the link?

Can you be more specific? I am curious also. When I create a link to a
database on 'xxx' it comes out 'xxx.cj.com' which is correct but I began
looking around and I don't see how it is working. In our initxxx.ora file
we have 'db_domain = WORLD'. In the sqlnet.ora file we have
#NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = world
# NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = cj.com
As you can see, both are commented out. We are on Sun Solaris and I did
find /etc/resolve.conf with:
domain cj.com.
search cj.com.
Is that where it is coming from or is there some other place to look.
Also, if I change the global name like:
alter database rename global_name to test;
Then is comes out as 'TEST.CJ.COM'.
Since it is clearly ignoring my oracle parameters, it must be an OS level
thing. And, since it has always worked for me, I never really questioned
it. Now that Kathy has asked about it, I am sure there are many of us who
are curious about it.
One more thing, I couldn't find any reference to it in the installation
guide.
TIA,
John

The extension on a database link is always the domain of the database it is
created in.
