Name

LOCAL_LISTENER

Synopsis

LOCAL_LISTENER = “ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = address_data)
                                [(ADDRESS = address_data)...]”

address_data (TCP/IP) :=
   (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = {hostname | ip_address})(PORT = port_number)
address_data (IPC) :=
   (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = key_name)
address_data (SPX) :=
   (PROTOCOL = SPX)(SERVICE = spx_service_name)
address_data (Named Pipes) :=
   (PROTOCOL = NMP)(SERVER = server_name)(PIPE = pipe_name)

Defines the addresses of local listeners so that the instance and the instance’s dispatchers can register with them. This is a static parameter, and may not be changed while the instance is running.

Tip

The LOCAL_LISTENER parameter overrides the now obsolete MTS_LISTENER_ADDRESS and MTS_MULTIPLE_LISTENERS parameters.
