Hi all
Some assistance with bb-hosts please.
If I want to check for an oracle listener, my line looks like this
1.2.3.4 name.domain.com # oratns:1545 This will check for an Oracle listener on port 1545
How do I make it check for more than one Oracle listener? For reasons unknown to me, we are running multiple listeners on separate ports on a server. Should I have multiple oratns entries (so my line looks like this) 1.2.3.4 name.domain.com # oratns:1545 oratns 1546
Or can we do it like this 1.2.3.4 name.domain.com # oratns:1545:1546
Ordinarily, I would just run a few tests, but bring down one of the listeners on a production server as a test could prove to be a serious CLM.
Regards Vernon

I'm surprised - I thought you could not have more than one tns listener per system. Oh well - I don't know one bit about Oracle DB; I've only worked with their J2EE application server.
The problem with it is that even though you can put multiple "oratns" tests into the bb-hosts file, each of them will cause a separate status message. So what you'll see on the Hobbit display is the result of only one of the tests.
My best suggestion is to copy the [oratns] section in bb-services so you have [oratns], [oratns1], [oratns2] and so up to the number of listeners you have on a single host. Then you can define them with their respective port numbers in the bb-hosts file, like
1.2.3.4 name.domain.com # oratns1:1545 oratns2:1546
Then there will be separate status columns for each of the listeners.
