Oracle 9i 365-day reboot issue

Hello all,

Some of the older list members may remember me; I've been more or less away
from Oracle for a few years but we still have a few old 9i systems I still
maintain on a sporadic basis.

Anyway, one of our few remaining Oracle customers recently requested that we
bounce the Oracle instance they were on; they said there was a bug in 9i
that required the instance be bounced at least every 365 days.

Does anyone know anything about this? I haven't been able to find out
anything about it; my Metalink account expired a long time ago and Googling
hasn't turned up anything.

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
