Hi
I noticed something strange with my listener status.
I have 2 instances running from this standby database:
- etmaster_stdby <-- 11.2 oracle db
- aet_stdby <-- 12.1 oracle db
Listener is stored in GI_HOME. GRID version is 12.1
Now I have checked all the listener.ora (from GI_HOME) and tnsnames.ora (from DB_HOME) files and none of these have excessive record.

When I stop my standby database aet_stdby, then listener still shows this BLOCKED record.

This points me to that conclusion that there is some kind of static listener set somewhere. But I have looked like everywhere and couldn't managed to find any record of it.
I even tried removing listener and adding new listener, still no luck.
Could anyone have some ideas maybe..?
