New database servers...one listener or one for each database.

So were migrating all the production databases to new Red Hat servers.  

The question being debated by the DBAs is…  

  • One listener for all the databases (1-10) on the server?
  • One listener per database, different ports, on the server?

One listener for the server keeps things simple all the way around but could be a single point of failure.  

One listener for each database kinda complicates things but reduces it as a single point of failure for all the databases on the server.  

Is there an Oracle recommendation? Have sites had problems with the listener?  

Thanks,

Chris
