Listener Configuration

Applicable to the CMS and Gateways

To access an Oracle database across the network, you use a listener. The listener is an Oracle process that resides on the server and manages incoming connection requests from clients.

SID

Set the SID (system identifier) for the CA DataMinder database. You can do this using the Oracle Net Manager. The SID corresponds to the SID_NAME value in the listener.ora file. You must supply this SID when you install an Oracle CMS, gateway or utility machine.

Network protocol

You must configure the listener for the CA DataMinder database to use TCP. The listener uses TCP for incoming report requests from CA DataMinder. You may also need to configure the listener for any other protocols used for client-Oracle access. To specify the network protocols, use the Net Configuration Assistant.
