We have an Oracle 11.2 three node RAC, and want to configure remote lisenter parameter in init file. WHen look at the document (Oracle® Database Reference 11g Release 2 (11.2) E10820-03 ), at Parameter REMOTE LISTENER, it reads
Syntax REMOTE_LISTENER = network_name
REMOTE_LISTENER specifies a network name that resolves to an address or address
list of Oracle Net remote listeners (that is, listeners that are not running on the same
machine as this instance). The address or address list is specified in the
TNSNAMES.ORA file or other address repository as configured for your system.
This confuses me
1) What is this 'network_name'? could it be listener name or net servce name?
2) Could it understood as that REMOTE_LISTERNER is a name of a listener (or a list of names of all listeners) that are not running on the same machine of the instance, and that listen for the addresses that are listed in the local tnsnames. Or simply the listeners on the other two nodes listening for the instances on the other two nodes?
Thanks
