scan listener
Hi Experts,
I'm a Unix admin, I have query regarding scan listener ,
we have two node RAC cluster running 11gr2, SCAN listener "scan-prod" has DNS host record which has 3 ip's (192.168.1.4 - 192.168.1.6).
Node1 has 192.168.1.5 & 192.168.1.6
oracle 28616 1 0 Aug23 ? 00:38:26 /opt/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/bin/tnslsnr LISTENER_SCAN2 -inherit
oracle 28710 1 0 Aug23 ? 00:39:22 /opt/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/bin/tnslsnr LISTENER_SCAN3 -inherit
Node2 has 192.168.1.4
oracle 55167 1 0 Aug30 ? 01:14:08 /opt/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/bin/tnslsnr LISTENER -inherit
oracle 59103 1 0 Aug23 ? 00:41:10 /opt/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/bin/tnslsnr LISTENER_SCAN1 -inherit
DNS record round-robin works like:- The client (or Resolver) will always use the first one. The next time DNS receives a query for this name the order of the list of IP addresses is changed in a round robin fashion (the address that was first in the previous list will be last in the new list).
