local_listener versus remote_listener and listener identification

LauryMay 30 2017 — edited May 30 2017

Hi,

I am working with an Oracle RDBMS 10gR2.

The database is running on a Linux server as user: talg02.

I have the following situation:

SQL> connect sys as sysdba

Enter password:

Connected.

SQL> !whoami

talg02

SQL> show parameter listener

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE

------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------

local_listener                       string      (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=t

                                                 dbalg02.dbr.agro.nl)(PORT=1521

                                                 ))

remote_listener                      string

SQL> show parameter db_name

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE

------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------

db_name                              string      talg004

SQL> !hostname

lnvx0084

SQL>

The database talg004 runs on host/node lnvx0084.

I see local_listener = (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=tdbalg02.dbr.agro.nl)(PORT=1521)).

Does this mean that the listener is running on a different host?

What is then the usage local_listener versus remote_listener?

Thanks and Regards
