I have not tried it, but it should work as follows:
- You'll have to use a connect string that is correctly defined for
"transparent application failover", see
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/network.112/e10836/advcfg.htm#NETAG455
- Failover will happen automatically.
- SELECTs should be able to complete without error message.
- INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE will fail with an error message and
will have to be retried. I did not code oracle_fdw to support
TAF for DML statements.
