I recently had the Oracle client installed on a SQL 2012 64-bit machine that is also a distributor and subscriber for transactional replication. I tried to verify the install by opening the dialog to create a linked server but I neglected to enter the server name first. This not only caused the client to hang but appears to have frozen the server as well. Replication has stopped entirely. Is there a fix for this without doing a reboot?
