listener status
When checking listener status without mentioning the name of the listener, it is saying that listener is not running:
oradb @ ts1db1/orahome/oradb/db/tech_st/11.2.0 >lsnrctl status
LSNRCTL for HPUX: Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production on 21-MAR-2012 14:50:27

Connecting to (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=)(PORT=1521))
TNS-12541: TNS:no listener
TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
TNS-00511: No listener
HPUX Error: 239: Connection refused
BUT when giving listener name it is giving proper output:
oradb @ ts1db1/orahome/oradb/db/tech_st/11.2.0 >lsnrctl status TEST

What could be the reason for "lsnrctl status" command not showing proper output?
