Works that way on AIX, too. Back one life ago (on AIX) I bounced the listener during the day every now and then with no dire consequences.

Tom,

I believe you are right on Solaris also. I once have to bounced a heavily used listener. No one noticed at all.

Or I am just lucky that time! :)

Sparc Solaris 2.6, 2.7. When I stop the tcp listener, the dedicated processes remain,
but new people cannot log in. When I restart, everything is back to normal.

Recently on a box with Oracle 8.0.5 and 8.1.6 were running, each with its own listener
(one on port 1521, the other on 1526). I shut down the 8.0.5 listener, refreshed the
8.1.6 listener (listener.ora file edited for listening on ports 1521 and 1526 for both databases).
Nobody noticed. And this is a heavily hit back end to an e-commerce site. ----- Original Message -----
