Standard vs EE shouldn't matter as far as the CRS is concerned. The last time I messed around with srvctl was on 9i/Linux so I'm a bit handicapped here but... Can you send me the tnsnames.ora and listener.ora entries from node 1? You said you had the listener running there after manually configuring? - I lost your original note. If you want to send as an attachment just directly email me vs the list. Also - what is the output of: srvctl config database -d db_name and srvctl status database -d db_name -v ?

One thing I hadn't mentioned is that I'm using Standard Edition, if that makes any difference.

REMOTE_LISTENER is set to 'LISTENERS_TCORE', which is defined in my tnsnames.ora file to be the address of the listener on node 1. LOCAL_LISTENER wasn't set. > To get back to your original issue about srvctl - have you tried > srvctl config listener -n nodename Nothing is returned. > srvctl stop listener -n nodename CRS-0210: Could not find resource ora.oracletest1.LISTENER_ORACLETEST1.lsnr. (I get the same error on both nodes, since I had dropped the listener on node 1 in an attempt to setup both listeners at once from that node.) --------------- Jason Heinrich Oracle Database Administrator Pensacola Christian College -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
