Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Listening on specific ports
Michael - Before you go using just any port, you may want to ask yourself if
something else uses that port. On most Unix systems it is sort of the honor
system, as was explained to me. There is usually a file (name varies by
flavor of Unix) where you are supposed to register your intention to use a
port.

Is there an "Easy" way to assign specific tnslistener ports to a specific database?
Let's say I wanted:
1521 to be prod1
1522 to be devl1
1523 to be web1
1524 to be test1
Right now ports are basically assigned to servers which may well be adequate. But I was asked, and it seems that we give a listener ports and databases, but there is no link to make one equal the other.
Also, is there a limit on total number of ports that a listener can be assigned to? In some cases I could find that they could conceivably want to use 10 ports over 15-20 databases? I'm not sure this will be practical.
It's such an unusual concept as usually there are 2-3 "large" databases, and this one server looks like it's a bunch of small databases.
Server is currently Solaris 8, database 8.1.7 all sharing the same ORACLE_HOME.
Thanks.
