Did you apply the mandatory patch 5752399 for 10.2.0.3 on Solaris 64-bit
and Filesystems Managed by Veritas or Solstice Disk Suite software? I
just applied the patchset 10.2.0.3 this weekend but I also applied this
mandatory patch. Without the manadatory patch I couldn't even start up
my databases. I am not seeing any issues after my patch maintenance on
Saturday. We had applied the patchset and the mandatory patch on our
Dev/Test server prior to applying them on the production system for
about a month. Of course, I am not running on a RAC platform and I am
not sure that this patch applies for RAC or whether there is another
patch that does. The Metalink Doc ID for this patch is 406472.1.

Subject: Issues with Oracle 10.2.0.3 upgrade on Solaris
Primary DB Configuration: a 2 node RAC cluster
Solaris: 5.9 Generic_118558-25 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-T12
Oracle: 10.2.0.3 RAC
Veritas Cluster: Symantec/Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC
4.1 MP1 (VERITAS-4.1_p3.1:2005-10-24)
Databases: MDB and RPMP
This past Sunday we upgraded this RAC system from 10.2.0.3 to 10.2.0.3
and am now experiencing a world of hurt. Here is list of the major
problems we are experiencing:
1. DBMS_SCHEDULER jobs not running to schedule. Frequent jobs (i.e.
repeat every 20 seconds to every 5/10/60 minutes) sometime run but
mostly don't. I cannot find anything (docs, Metalink notes, google) that
talks about debugging scheduler problems. Could this be a RAC
communication/performance problem?
2. Getting frequent (i.e. every couple of seconds) core dumps.
ORA-07445: exception encountered: core dump [opidsa()+480] [SIGSEGV]
[Address not mapped to object] [0x000000000] [] []. I believe that this
Oracle bug 5745817 with no fix available.
3. SQLNet connectivity issues. Connections are getting ORA-03113 errors.
This may correlate to Step 2 core dumps but not certain.
4. For RPMP db, trying to upgrade single instance/database physical
standby to 10.2.0.3 (install new Oracle 10.2.0.3 binaries and then apply
archive logs) the recovery fails. Recover is asking for a archive log
from October 3, 2006 (when standby db built) but problem SCN is from
2/26/2007 01:45 (from scn_to_timestamp function). I am not sure why I
need such an old archive log. My fix was to rebuild the physical
standby database.
We have a Sev 1 Metalink service request but are not making much
progress. So I am wondering if anyone else has experienced these
problems after upgrading to Oracle 10.2.0.3 on Solaris?
And as an aside we did test the 10.2.0.3 upgrade in our integration
environment and had no problems/issues.
Thanks for any help
Daniel
