I ran
lsnrctl services and got a bunch of output. As is read through it listed all the databases in my server.
Some of them said READY status and others said UNKNOWN.
I shutdown the machine and restarted everything but its still the same.
I tried reading the Oracle Docs for this but may be I am looking at the wrong page. Can someone tell me where I can find the best info regarding this.
Thanks
Scott

An UNKNOWN status means that the instance is registered statically (with a SID_LIST) in the listener.ora file rather than dynamically with service registration.
You can either ignore it, or remove the SID_LIST from your listener.ora so that your instance registers with default listener running on port 1521 or specify a local listener in your pfile(or spfile) with the host,port,protocol information as follows :
alter system set Local_Listener="(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=yourhost)(port=1522))";
When you restart the instance,it should register with this listener .
Oracle infact doesnt recommend having SID_LIST in listener.ora (since 9i) becos it seems it causes additional overhead on listener process. I havent seen this(ie slowdown) practically,just passing on the information I heard.
