Mike/Ruth,
This is a classic one when upgrading from 8.1. to 9.2 (or 9.0 for that
matter). You have to be VEWY VEWY VEWY careful with COMPATIBLE. It SHOULD be
at 8.1.7 for the upgrade. This is because of the difference in Redo log
format between 8.1.7 and 9.2 (or 9.0) which I think was introduced because
of LSB support. The other parameter that you need to be careful about is
"_system_trig_enabled". Set this to FALSE (along with COMPATIBLE = 8.1.7)
until well after all the work is done and you are ready to release to the
user. This will disable ORA-3113 errors crashing your instance at startup
because the Java VM hasn't been installed and Oracle snuck in a Java based
Database Startup trigger. And when compatible is set to anything other than
8.1.7, it stamps this in redo and it WILL NOT be possible to go back.
I am talking fresh from retrieving a 250 Gb database from backup working 36
hours that went sour because of an issue related to this combination and the
fact that the DBA (me!) mistakenly ran a CREATE UNDO when compatible was
still at 8.1.7 but the command failed after creating a mess.
I would suggest going to the backup and starting again. Don't fiddle around
with the underscore parameter - it won't work on account of the redo
difference - sorry!

I was told by Oracel Support to just change the compatible setting and then
the ananlyst said "Oops' when it didn't work. I couldn't continue it took
about a week to get it back. No one knew what to do. They all said "That
isn't good!" We had already dismantled the old servers (32 bit) and
reconfigured the new 64 bit servers we had to get a workaround to make the
old version (8.0.6.3) work so we could do another recovery and try again.
That trace that they say works to overcome the problem doesn't work. If
you can do a restore back to the 8.1.7 version you can just take out the
compatible parameter and try again. If not, you may be in for a long haul.
If I can do anything else to help you, please let me know.
Ruth

Going from 8.1.7.4 to 9.2.0.4.
I and another DBA have just about exhausted our things to try.
I had a compatible='9.2.0' in the init.ora for the 9i migration. You can't
do this, but must set it AFTER the migration. I had obtained a copy of the
init.ora from a working Version 9 and went over the lines one by one
comparing them to "PFTST" to make the version 9 init.ora.
Now I get the stuff below. I've tried using:
_allow_resetlogs_corruption=TRUE
EVENT = "10619 trace name context forever, level 1"
Both of which were mentioned as ways to get around the problem.
You would think they'd test for that "invalid at this point" setting.
I've saved off the export, just in case.
The log gives me this:
