5.7.4 Modifying the settings related to Oracle instances and Oracle listeners

To modify the server start, termination, and monitoring commands and the control definition file that are associated with an Oracle instance or Oracle listener that has already been built:

  1. Stop the server by executing the monitor-mode server termination command (monend command).
    If you modify a setting without first stopping the server, a setting error may make it impossible to terminate the Oracle instance or Oracle listener, or the setting content may no longer match the action of the server monitoring command that is running. As a result, you may no longer be able to assess the status of the server monitoring command. Therefore, be sure to stop the server before modifying the setting.
  2. Modify the settings for the server start, termination, and monitoring commands and the control definition file.
    For details about the server start, termination, and monitoring commands, see 4. Setting Up the Server Start, Termination, and Monitoring Commands.
    For details about control definition files, see 3.2.7(2) Setting up control definition files.
  3. Start the server by executing the monitor-mode server start command (monbegin command).
