Multiple residency is possible because the operating system can maintain separate areas in shared memory and on disk for each instance of the database server. Each instance of the database server passes a value to the operating system. This value, which is a function of the SERVERNUM configuration parameter, specifies the shared-memory address to which the database server process should attach. You must also specify a unique database server name and unique storage locations for each instance of the database server.
