    loopback address found when looking IP of database sever

    Hello there,
    I have a doubt in find the ip address for the database ,i get the following result when i query
    select UTL_INADDR.get_host_address(host_name) from v$instance;
    UTL_INADDR.GET_HOST_ADDRESS(HOST_NAME)
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    127.0.0.1

    but when in listener file host= i can see ipaddress,
    y does the query reflect the loopback address
    thanks

    thanks

    Thanks U Sir,
    i really ignored that area,
    $ cat /etc/hosts
    # Do not remove the following line, or various programs
    # that require network functionality will fail.
    127.0.0.1 ##### localhost.localdomain localhost
    ---------

    and now i will change with help of sys admin
    Thank again
    regards
    Natraj
