CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS

Parameter type	String
Syntax	`CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS =` `ifn` `[:` `ifn` `... ]`
Default value	There is no default value.
Parameter class	Static
Range of values	One or more IP addresses, separated by colons

CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS provides Oracle with information about additional cluster interconnects available for use in Oracle9i Real Application Clusters environments.

Oracle uses information from this parameter to distribute traffic among the various interfaces. You should set a value for CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS when a single interconnect is insufficient to meet the bandwidth requirements of large cluster databases.

CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS is an optional parameter. If you do not set it, Oracle preserves the current semantics that determine the appropriate interconnect for Oracle9i Real Application Clusters inter-node communication.

Note:

When you set CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS in Solaris configurations, the interconnect High Availability features are not available. In other words, an interconnect failure that is normally unnoticeable would instead cause an Oracle cluster failure.
