Create/Edit Listener - Static Database Registration Page

Use this page to statically register a database to a listener. When you add a database registration using the Static Database Registration tab, the changes are recorded in the listener.ora file, rather than in a running listener.

About Static Configuration

In order for the listener to accept client connect requests to an Oracle8 release 8.0 or Oracle7 database, you must configure the listener.ora file with information about the database. Static configuration is also required for other services such as external procedures, and heterogeneous services.

For Oracle8i, Oracle9i, and Oracle 10g databases, the listener uses the dynamic service information about the database, and instance it has received through service registration before using statically configured information in the listener.ora file. As a result, static configuration is not necessary for Oracle8i, Oracle9i, and Oracle 10g databases.

The only reason you might want to use static registration is if you are supporting remote startup of the database using a tool other than Oracle Enterprise Manager.

For more information, see the chapter "Configuring and Administering the Listener" in the Oracle Net Services Administrator's Guide.
