An instance can be thought of as single database (development, test, production, ...). A server is the hardware device, and you can have several instances configures on it (see multiple residency in the admin guide). There is a one-to-many relationship between a server and its instances. SC > Hi, > > What is the difference between an instance and a server ? > > Regs, > Rajesh
