ORA-12518: TNS:listener could not hand off client connection


You may get below error when trying to connect to the database using sqlplus or through an application login.

ORA-12518: TNS:listener could not hand off client connection



Reason:
The process of handing off a client connection to another process failed.


Solution;
 Increase PROCESSES initialization parameter.


Use the following command to check the value of the PROCESSES initialization parameter:

show parameter processes;


If the database was started using an spfile, then the following command can be used to increase the PROCESSES initialization parameter:

alter system set processes=600 scope=spfile;

If the database was started using a pfile, then the value of the processes parameter must be changed in the pfile and the database bounced.

Building Continuous Data Trust with Oracle GoldenGate Veridata 26c

Today I'll discus on how we can build continuous data trust with Oracle GoldenGate Veridata 26c! As we accelerate towards hybrid and multi cloud architectures , one challenge keep coming up. That is "H ow do you trust your data across all these platforms?" With increasing data movement, replication, and transformation, even small changes can lead to major business risks. This is where Oracle GoldenGate Veridata 26c comes in handy! Rather than just validating data occasionally, the focus now is on continuous data trust . What is Veridata? It is a tool to compare data across different systems. It ensures source and target databases are in sync. It works during , Data migration, Replication setups, Ongoing operations.
