One thought if you are on Unix would to be to use the Unix command "strings" to search the different libraries and binaries for variations of the word "purify". Look at the line Oracle pointed out to you for anything else that you could search for. You can find a surprising amount of information from supposedly unreadable binaries.

Hi,  

When you install oracle it might link some things together. Possibly it used some obecjts that were compiled with purify or it is somehow installed on your system. Look for the objects that might have this and try to figure out where they came from.  

Hth,  

Jeroen

I think this is what they are talking about.

Have we had several cases where oracle.exe on NT during patching of Oracle Apps 11i gets a runaway thread. This thread is not known to Oracle - not in v$session. Even if shutdown database, still at 100%. Must halt the service for it to resolved.

Oracle is theorizing backupexec from Veritas might be a problem - but doesn't make sense since that service is always running.

Now in a dump, Oracle see's something called purify and want us to disable it to see if that makes a difference.

Never heard of purify - what is this??
