Listener serving two services. Need to stop connections to one of the Dbs

Question

I have two Databases, a 10gR2 and an 11g Db in one machine. The 11g listener is serving both these Databases. I want to stop all connections to the 10gR2 database. How can i do that?

Answer 1

You can try to change the LOCAL_LISTENER instance parameter for the 10g instance to a unused port number on the current host. For example;
alter system set local_listener='(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <your hostname>) (PORT = 9999))';Check that the listener is no more listening for the 10g instance services:
lsnrctl status <your listener name>Note this should only disable new Oracle Net connections to the instance: existing connections are not affected.
