I hit a nice bug lately on 92020 Windooze wherein to alter the spfile with
RAC caused the system to hang. It's fixed in 92050

Subject: More spfile goodness
A while back we had a conversation about the advisability or not of using spfiles. IIRC what I suggested was sensible if you were going to use them was that you create a backup first using the create pfile from spfile command. I ran into this today
SQL> create pfile from spfile;
create pfile from spfile
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [733], [538970160], [pga heap],
[], [], [], [], []
The 733 argument shows that is essentially an out of memory condition, the second argument is the amount of memory in bytes requested!
This is apparently due to a corrupt spfile - per support.
