Derya,

what are the values set for minperm and maxperm? Also, the values for
minfree/maxfree. these parameter should be set correctly. have a chat with
your systems administrator.

If you are using AIX 5.3, you should have this update : IY58143.

i read somewhere that you need to use GPFS 2.3.0.1 for AIX 5.2 and above.
Also, have you reviewed ML note 302806.1

do you really want to use GPFS ?? :-)

regards
anand

Thanks for the replies... We have got Oracle 10.1.0.4 RAC database AIX 5L 64bit and GPFS 2.3. We upgraded our database from 9i to 10g in May 2006. We hit several bugs since then. Oracle recently advise us to apply CRS fix bundle 4731033 or 10.1.0.5 patchset, and look for network errors. I will send init.ora later, because I am not in the office right now. I do not know if it is related with this issue, but we got ORA-600 errors seldomly. Below our operating system logs and patch lists. Regards, Derya.

Installed Patch List:
