ORA-12541:TNS nolistener error: REMOTE DATABASE changed their server

KrithiJan 30 2013 — edited Jan 30 2013
PLATFORM:WINDOWS
ORACLE 11gR1(11.1.0.7.0) (Soon will be upgraded to 11gR2)
Hi
Our tnsping and remote database connectivity to the remote system was working perfect until yesterday.
Yesterday the remote database we are connecting to, changed their server to new one so we have been given a new conncetion description and this was changed in the tnsnames.ora file.No other changes made. Our existing listener was stopped and restarted as well .
we are getting the error
ORA-12541:TNS nolistener when trying to conenct to their database.
Please guide how to fix now!
Please see below the old and new tns entries in tnsnames.ora file
--This was the old entry , just renamed to .old now
OS.WORLD.old =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 172.16.1.71)(PORT = 1521))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = orc1)
    )
  )
--new entry
OS.WORLD =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 172.16.1.247)(PORT = 1521))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 172.16.1.248)(PORT = 1521))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 172.16.1.249)(PORT = 1521))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 172.16.1.182)(PORT = 1521))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 172.16.1.184)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = PRD.osi.net)
    )
  )
They said new server is on RAC and this is the address what they gave.
Is there anything unusual in the above entry for os.world?
I am not sure where else to check for the error information other than tnsping.trc file, its information is given below:
