In which situation would you use static database registration for a listener?

The correct answer is B. When DBAs need to connect remotely to start up the database instance. Static listener registration is configured manually in listener.ora and persists even when the database instance is down. This is required when a DBA must remotely connect to start an instance that has not yet registered itself dynamically via PMON.

Why each option

Static listener registration is configured manually in listener.ora and persists even when the database instance is down. This is required when a DBA must remotely connect to start an instance that has not yet registered itself dynamically via PMON.

AWhen multiple databases are to be registered with the listener

Multiple databases can be registered with a single listener using dynamic registration via PMON without requiring static configuration.

BWhen DBAs need to connect remotely to start up the database instanceCorrect

Dynamic registration relies on the PMON background process to advertise service information to the listener, but PMON only runs when the instance is up. With static registration defined in listener.ora, the listener is aware of the database at all times, allowing a DBA to establish a remote connection with SYSDBA or SYSOPER privileges and issue a STARTUP command before PMON is active.

CWhen users need to connect the database instance using the host naming method

Host naming resolution is a client-side naming method and does not impose a requirement for static listener registration.

DWhen the database instance that is to be registered with the listener is configured in shared server mode

Shared server mode configuration is handled through the DISPATCHERS parameter and dynamic registration; it does not specifically require static registration in listener.ora.
