That's the expected behavior Ralberto. The SID values are reused during the 
life of the instance but SERIAL# is extended each time. Therefore it is 
perfectly natural to see sessions with the same value of SERIAL#. It's the 
(SID, SERIAL#) combination that you expect to be unique during the life of the 
instance.
Kindest regards,
Iggy
