Dear All,

I have Oracle 8.1.6 and 4 instances on that.
If I try to restart the instances through svrmgrl. I am unable to start the instances. Its gives me error "ORA-01102: cannot mount database in EXCLUSIVE mode". How can i start instances manually?

Regards
Tushar

Hi
There is some conflict between instance-names & database-names. So u check these and if necessary make some unique names for these. So after reboot the system, manually u have to startup all these instances. So before u run svrmgrl for each instances, u have to set environmental variable i.e. oracle_sid=.....

Good luck.

Suresh

i've come aross this situation. My Oracle database server was not setup in Paralell Mode, but there were 2 db existing in the same server.

In this case, to start up the database must specify pfile

Syntax: startup pfile = <physical path of the ora file>

OS: Windows 2k
Oracle db: 8.1.7

Hope this can help.

Hi,

I got the same error on Oracle 10g DB. I have three databases on the same machine.

I stopped two of the services and used the following from command prompt.

set oracle_sid=the active sid name

sqlplus /nolog

At the sqlprompt...

connect sys as sysdba

startup force pfile='.....' from the command prompt

and it worked!

Then I started the next service by setting
ORACLE_SID=mysid and did the same steps as above.
