Can anyone explain the meaning of this in a user trace file? *** 2006-05-11 16:00:31.553 *** SESSION ID:(162.6901) 2006-05-11 16:00:31.552 kjctseventdump-enqevent tail 150 heads 0 @ 0 150 @ 603363520 150 @ 603363520 Oracle 9.2.0.5 RAC - 3 nodes on Linux x86 I've never seen this before today, when it turned up once each on two of the RAC nodes - during a one hour load test. No google or Metalink hits, but it may be relevant that this database was restored earlier this afternoon from a slightly garbled cold backup ...
