Folks During a Benchmark Run as Number of Database sessions increased to 18000 following Error Occured:- ORA-28547 "connection to server failed, probable Oracle Net admin error" Qs Will increasing the Number of Listener processes help? ACTION - Listener processes have been increased from 12 to 16. But need to check if the error re-occurs or is resolved. Qs Could it be a Network bandwidth issue? Currently all 16 Listener processes sit on the SAME ( 1 ) Network Card, but use different Port Numbers. Database setup - Shared Server (MTS) Oracle 10.2.0.3 (NON-RAC) Solaris 10 Will share any info needed. Cheers P.S. $ oerr ora 28547:- *Action: Check Oracle Net administration in the following ways: // -- When using TNSNAMES.ORA or an Oracle Names server, make sure // that the client connection to the ORACLE server uses // the correct service name or SID. // -- Check LISTENER.ORA on the connection end point's host machine // to assure that this service name or SID refers // to the correct server. // -- Confirm in TNSNAMES.ORA or the equivalent service definition // that the connect string does NOT contain (HS=). **************** CAUTION - Disclaimer ***************** This e-mail contains PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION intended solely for the use of the addressee(s).
