Ruth,
I'm with Paul on this one. Before you do the alter system kill session,
get the server pid from v$process. Then if the alter system returns the
marked for kill statement, you just run a kill -9 or orakill. You can
spool out a small shell script that is ready to run should the internal
kill not work. You want to get the spid before you issue the kill
session. After the kill session oracle reports the spid as PSEUDO.
spool kill_hung.sh
select 'kill -9 '||p.spid
from v$process p, v$session s
where p.addr = s.paddr
and s.sid = &KILL_SID
and s.serial# = &KILL_SERIAL
/
spool off
!chmod 700 kill_hung.sh
!./kill_hung.sh
