drop or alter database link question...

User_SDMR4Dec 13 2012 — edited Dec 14 2012
I have a database that uses a dblink to connect to a remote database to use a sequence for id's. The remote database is a 12 node rac cluster and when the database link was initially created the admin that created it only specified one of the nodes in the rac cluster in the comnnection description for the database link.
We want to change the link to include both rac nodes but we have a bunch of synonyms that point to the database link and I do not want to invalidate the synonyms.
If I alter the dblink as opposed to drop and recreate then will the synonyms become unusable or invaildated?
Thanks.
