Changing Listener Port and tnsnames.ora

DrummerCA35Oct 11 2015 — edited Oct 11 2015

Hello,

I need to change the listener port of my 12c Oracle home from 1522 to 1521.  I  have multiple homes on one server.  I am upgrading from 11g to 12c. 

I know I can go into listener.ora and change the port from 1522 to 1521.  From what I've read, I leave the "KEY = EXTPROC1522" value alone, if I have that right.

But, in the tnsnames.ora file in the 12c home, I see the following entry:

***************************************************

ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA =

  (DESCRIPTION =

    (ADDRESS_LIST =

      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1522))

    )

    (CONNECT_DATA =

      (SID = CLRExtProc)

      (PRESENTATION = RO)

    )

  )

*************************************************

I don't know how that got into the file, though I've looked up what it is.  Do I need to change the "KEY = EXTPROC1522" value to "KEY = EXTPROC1521" in the tnsnames.ora file after I change listener port in the listener.ora file?  

My apologies if this is a bonehead question.

Thanks
