The following arguments are used to connect to an Oracle database:

Table 1. 

Argument name Description Required
DB_NAME Service name: global database name entered during database creation (it combines a database name with a domain name), can be left empty to connect to the default database. No
HOST Database server: host on which the database server is running Yes
PORT Port: database server port (leave this field empty for the default 1521 port) No
SCHEMA Schema: Name of the schema to use. If not specified, the schema defaults to that of the connected user. No


Note however all the arguments above can be replaced by a single TNSNAME argument (see the "Oracle Database Net Services Administrator's Guide" for more information about defining connection identifiers).
