NAMES.PREFERRED_SERVERS
NAMES.PREFERRED_SERVERS = (ADDRESS_LIST = (address) [(address)...] )
Specifies the list of Names servers to be used when using Oracle
Names to resolve a net service name. For the definition of
address, see Appendix B.
Although there is no default value, if you used Names Control or the
Net8 Assistant to discover available Names servers on the network,
the $ORACLE_HOME/network /names/sdns.ora file
will also contain a list of Names servers to use. The
NAMES.PREFERRED_SERVERS setting, if it’s used, overrides the
list in sdns.ora.
