Marin,
Not sure I understand the question. Each database needs a unique sid on
that machine. You can use the same sid on different computers, but not on the
same one. According to MetaLink DBID is not a unique indicator.

Hi,
what is the best way to uniquely identify a database?
A. grant access to the user to v$database and use DBID?
(how unique is the DBID?)
B.generate a unique ID somehow
(some PL/SQL package to use?)
thanx,
Marin
