parallel_instances

This parameter is only relevant if you are using Oracle Real Application Cluster (RAC).

The instances running in parallel to the dedicated database instance are defined by this parameter.

parallel_instances = <inst_descr>|(<inst_descr_list>)
         

Default value: none.

Possible value:

<inst_descr>: <ORACLE_SID>:<ORACLE_HOME>@<conn_str>

where:

• <ORACLE_SID>: Oracle System ID of the parallel instance

• <ORACLE_HOME>: ORACLE_HOME directory of the parallel instance

• <conn_str>: Oracle connection string for connect to the parallel instance (for example, TNS alias in TSNAMES.ora)
