Best practice for listeners for multiple oracle homes - 1 listener?

I have a machine with 9i and 10g on it, and I have set up a 10g listener to serve connections to the 9i and 10g databases.
Is this best practice, or is it better to have two listeners - a 9i listener for th 9i databases and a 10g listener for the 10g databases?

HI,
Are they two production databases ? In this case, like Laurent said, perhaps it's better to have one listener per instance, if one shutdown, it doesn't disturbe the other.
Are they different application level (1 for dev, 1 for validation...), here too, perhaps it's better to have one listener per instance, if one shutdown, it doesn't disturbe the other.
Are they two development databases ? In this case, you can to have one listener for all databases
I don't think that there is only one way, but there is too many configuration which make one solution is better that other.

  • Guidelines regarding directory structure for multiple Oracle homes on Unix!

    Hi All,
    Are there any guidelines published regarding directory structures that should be defined while using multiple Oracle homes on Unix/Linux box?
    I am looking for guidelines regarding admin and oradata folders so that we dont accidentally mess up with the DB contents with a wrong Oracle home.
    Its a development server with 8i and 10g. 11g might also get loaded on the same server in future.
    Thanks in advance...
    Regards

    Thanks Maran.
    I have already checked many installation guides before posting here. All of them mention about creating folders like /admin or /oradata on various mount points but none of the naming conventions really indicate whether it is a 8i database or a 10g database.
    This is required when you are having multiple Oracle installations under /opt and databases are running from different mount points.

    Which version are you setting up and what are the requirements? IF you are discussing the use of NIC bonding for high availability beginning in 11.2.0.2 there is a concept of "High Availability IP" of HAIP as discussed in the pre-installation chapters,
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e22489/prelinux.htm, section 2.7.1 Network Hardware Requirements.
    In essence, using HAIP eliminates the need to use NIC bonding to provide for redundancy.

  • Best Practice: Export unrendered for internet

    Hi
    As I recall, in previous versions of FCPX  it was considered best practice, at least for exports for web, to export unrendered.
    Still true? Ever true for all other export reasons?

  • Any known security best practices to follow for FMS deployment

    Hi all,
    We have recently deployed Flash Media Streaming server 3.5.2 and Flash Media Encoder on a Windows 2003 machine. Do you guys know of any security best practices to follow for the FMS server deployment on a Windows machine, could you please point me to that resource.

    Hi
    I will add some concepts, I am not sure how all of them work technically but there should be enough here for you to
    dig deeper, and also alot of this is relevant to your environment and how you want to deploy it.
    I have done a 28 server deployment, 4 origin and 24 edge servers.
    All the Edge servers on the TCP/IP properties we disabled file and printer sharing. Basically this is a way in for hackers and we disabled this only on the edge servers as these are the ones presented to the public.
    We also only allowed ports 1935, 80, 443 on our NICs. Protocol numbers are 6 and 17, this means that you are allowing UDP and TCP. So definitely test out your TCP/IP port filtering until you are confortable that all your connection types are working and secure.
    Use RTMPE over RTMP, as it is there to be used and I am surprised not more people use it. The problem as with any other encryption protocol, it may cause higher overhead on resources of the servers holding the connections.
    You may want to look at SWF verification. In my understanding, it works as the following. You publish a SWF file on a website. This is a source code that your player uses for authentication. If you enable your edge servers to only listen for authentication requests from that SWF file, then hopefully you are really lessening the highjacking possibilities on your streams.
    If you are doing encoding via FME then I would suggest that you download the authentication plugin that is available on the Flash Media Encoder download site.
    There are other things you can look at making it more secure like adaptor.xml, using a front end load balancer, HTML domains, SWF domains,
    Firewalls and DRM.
    I hope this helps you out.

  • Multiple Oracle home

    Hi ,
    I have some doubt which needs to be cleared.
    If I will install multiple oracle home like ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/asm
    ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0
    ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0
    ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/crs
    Now in this when I will set export ORACLE_HOME then which version will be picked up.
    Is ORAENV isgoing to come into picture.
    Please throw some light on it.

    Asif KabirAsif,
    Your advice to hard code the Oracle environment directly into the profile is poorly thought out. And a direct carry over of 'worst practices' unfortunately taught in some Oracle related classes.
    The OP did correctly identify oraenv (as described in the "Administrator's Reference for UNIX-Based Operating Systems" at http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=4) as the preferred solution. Putting THAT into the profile (using ORAENV_ASK as described in the manual) is OK.
    I'll leave you to figure out why the difference - I've posted many times about that in these forums.

  • Oracle XE (Windows) Multiple Oracle Homes

    I have a question in regards to Oracle Express Edition and how it maintains Oracle Home.
    I currently have multiple Oracle Homes on my machine. In order for apps like SQL Developer or PLSQL Developer to see the correct TNSNAMES entries, I usually have to use the Home Selector from the Installation tools to properly obtain the correct tnsnames entries in the dropdowns.
    Now, I'm a Linux DBA, not to keen on Oracle environments for Windows. But, when I installed Oracle Express Edition, none of my Applications SQL Developer or PLSQL Developer recognize the tnsnames entries for my environment. From the 9i Home Selector I see that it is in the correct environment I want it to use. But it seems Express has overriden somehow.
    Can anyone lead me into the right direction to switch between my XE Environment to my 9i environments?
    Thanks.
    Lee

    I did it too, but the beta over beta software is just too dangerous.. you never know what is crashing your system :)

  • Multiple oracle homes installation

    i have installed oracle 9i database on single sever where 8i is residing using multiple oracle homes.After installation some folders and files related to 9i created in 8i home directory(eg:9i admin related folder create in 8i admin folder).but i dont want to create like that.is there any way to create all files related to 9i should reside on that 9i home directory only?

    You didn't specified the OS.
    Assume that your OS is Unix-like (Solaris, Linux) and your user is oracle.
    The answer is very simple. Use different enviroments.
    create in home directory (oracle user) two files:
    1. .ora_8i
    2. .ora_9i
    All enviroment variables related for 8i database (ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc.) are defined in .ora _8i and all variables for 9i are defined in .ora_9i.
    Now, you want working with 8i so you need apply 8i enviroment. To do that simply execute following from shell ". ~/.ora_8i". Now you decided working with 9i so simply execute the ". ~/.ora_9i" from shell.
    For installation use the same way. So before you run ./runInstaller load the apropriate enviroment.

  • Multiple oracle homes problem

    Hi!
    I have multiple oracle homes on my machine: Oracle9DB, DevsuiteHome_1 and now as I have just installed Oracle Discoverer 10g....BIToolsHome_1.
    The problem is ever since I installed Discoverer, nothing is working......
    Can anyone help?
    Best regards,
    Aparna

    Dear Rod,
    What I mean by nothing is working is I cannot connect to the dataases. I get 'No listener' error message.
    Oracle Hone selector gives the following message:
    The is only one Oracle Home defined on this machine and so this tool cannot be used to change your primary Oracle home.
    I tried to start the listener service, however, it says:
    Listener service started and then stopped.
    Is there any solution to this problem?
    Thanks and best regards,

  • Multiple Oracle Homes and SAN

    hi gurus,
    i need to install two instances of oracle 10g on solaris 10 and have 6 tb of SAN available to use.
    i understand that i can place all the data/redo/arch files on the san.
    my question is,
    can i place the oracle binary, oracle home etc on the SAN instead of the local disk? advanatages/disadvantatges etc
    thanks is advance,
    newbie

    can i place the oracle binary, oracle home etc on the SAN instead of the local disk? advanatages/disadvantatges etcYes you can. This is often used for some cases (shared Oracle Home for RAC).
    My opinion is SAN space is too expensive to waste a space this way (if there is another option).
    Note In case you will be creating the RAC installation then you can do shared Oracle Home but do not try to create shared Inventory.
