RE:

<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Afternoon Lisa,
<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I thought that BEQ and (for example) IPC protocols
both used the listener to
spawn
a server-side process. The difference is in the protocol used in the
communication
between the remote and local processes. IPC uses Unix Domain
Sockets
to communicate between the client-side and server-side processes,
where
BEQ uses Unix pipes. I had assumed that this was why BEQ connections
had to
be local. This is the view expounded in Note: 1014940.6. If I've got
it
wrong, it'd be nice to know. Any comments, Gurus?

<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Hi Deepak
<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Here's what the doco says
<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>The Bequeath protocol <glossary.htm> enables
clients that exist on the same
machine
as the server to retrieve information from the database without
using
the listener. The Bequeath protocol internally spawns a dedicated
server
process for each client applications. In a sense, it does the same
operation
that a remote network listener does for your connection, yet
locally.
<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Bequeath is used for local connections where an
Oracle client application,
such
as SQL*Plus, communicates with an Oracle server running on the same
machine
<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Tell me if I'm wrong but here's my take on it:
When I connect from my pc,
there's
a process on my PC and there's a corresponding process on the
database,
say on a Unix server. Though the connection was initiated
remotely,
the process itself on the db server is still a local process that
exists
to communicate with the database.
<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Am I wrong? If so let me know.

was temted to reply as well {lol} .. but
if you
look closely .. both her conn are bequeth .. i
was
under the impression that bequeth was used only
for
local and not remote .. thats why we chose beq
over
tcp for db's that resided in same box for
performance
reasons .. or so i thought until now ;)
