I'm running two 12c R2 databases on linux oracle 7.9
I've installed the first database (CDB) and also a listener and both of them were running fine. Then, I've installed another 12c R2 database (CDB2) on the same system.
These are my instances:
CDB
CDB2
The problem is that if I want to startup only the second database(CDB2), and then the listener, when running lsnrctl status LISTENER
it says: The listener supports no services
If I startup the first database after that (CDB), the listener comes to life saying that it supports both of the services (CDB and CDB2).
So, it only support CDB2 if I also startup CDB. If I startup only CDB2, it does not support it.
But, after I started CDB and after listener started supporting both services, if i shutdown CDB, the listener is still supporting CDB2.
So, as a summary:
If i startup CDB2 and then the listener, the listener does not support any services. If I startup CDB after, the listener supports both dbs. If I shutdown CDB after, the listener supports only CDB2 which is what i want in the first place.
First step:

And also, even if i stop and start again the listener (having only CDB2 running - closing CDB), it is working as it should be:

What is the problem? Why the listener does not support the second database (CDB2) from the first time and I have to startup also the first database (CDB) in order for it to support both of them?
Thanks.
