The short answer is no. Unless you had some specific problem where you proved the listener stalled/failed and you were putting together something for availability there is no strong argument for another listener.

A lot of places have something in place that creates ( and tests ) a new connection on some interval ( with appropriate alerting ) to prove that both the listener and the database are responding. Received on Mon Mar 29 2010 - 12:19:40 CDT
