Yes - that is true. > Do I understand this concept correctly? > Also is there any gotcha (Not usually forseeable problems) > that I should advise my client about? They need to take into consideration that there is only one x_server running for all databases (comparable to the Oracle listener). Everything else should work fine. You didn't mention if the will run a 32bit or 64bit (x86_64) Windows 2003 on their box; for 32bit I don't now if you would run into architecture limits (system inposed) when using a lot of instances. For 64bit you should be on the safe side. Greetz, SIEGENIA-AUBI KG Informationswesen i.A.
