Mar 24, 2009In that case, I think you'll work (from a connectivity standpoint) without any issues. Ideally setup the oracle client to point to the virtual server address in tnsnames.ora as opposed to the real server address. The BigIP is a NAT device, so as the traffic flows through the BigIP it'll do destination address translation back to the selected server.
Now for the big caveat: if you're looking to load balance read/write operations be super careful - this is an extremely tricky problem to solve. If you're doing read only, you'll likely be OK.
