Hi Folks,

Please read this very carefully. I was reading a article in eweek magazine(September) on oracle. Following are exact words.

" Oracle has been quietly alerting customers that systems running oracle 8.1.6 or earlier could find the database control file corrupted if the server runs for 248 consecutive days without a reboot".

Is this legit???
