A lot of our customers use Oracle as database and are already up to version 19c. Mostly they do not provide a SID anymore, only a service name. Especially with Oracle 19c pluggable this turned out to be a big pain for us and the customers database admins...

When searching our directory (using so-called entitities), there is a refresh-button (symbolized by a circular arrow). This refreshes the current search results. Our helpdesk uses it for example to check whether the person on the phone has succeeded...
