Is there any Standby to this setup? On Mon, 22 Jan 2007 14:25:05 -0500, "Richard J. Goulet" <rgoulet@xxxxxxxxxx> said: Has anyone seen the following condition in 8.1.7 on Solaris 9, all 64 bit: 1: The database appears to be frozen. New connections do not reject, but don't come back to the client either. 2: Dedicated server processes amount to ~ 150 sessions where the db process and sessions limits are up around 400 3: Database will not shutdown immediate even after half an hour of waiting. Must use shutdown abort. 4: Cannot see what v$lock contains. Connection as sysdba comes back to a command prompt, but about the only thing you can do is abort the instance. 5: Memory(vmstat) appears normal, cpu loading is low and idle is high. 6: Sar does not indicate any disks being hit for anything. Io appears to be non existent. 7: Alert log does not contain anything outside of the normal redo switching activity. No user dump files either.
