Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: very odd problem....oracle support has been no help so far.
Chris - are you on a clustered environment ? If the other node has mounted the database, you cannot mount it. Check your $O_H/dbs for lk$SID mentioned below.

Its not a password file error, it means some other instance has the database mounted (or thinks it has) it uses the lk$SID file to determine this

Has anyone done anything to your password file? I know this sounds too
simple, but that EXCLUSIVE error is a password file error. In 9i having
a
password file error causes other weird manifestations.
Just the thot,
Ruth

8.1.7.2 on HP 11
Two days ago we had a problem with our san that crashed a few of our
databases. I was told failed drives but I don't know how to validate
that
and communication on the issue has been sketchy.
Everything seems to be fine except for one database. It is a
reporting
database that contains replicated data from a remote site.
The refresh of the materialized views is scheduled for every 2
hours. When
the job runs we receive a 600 error with the following arguments:
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [6731], [1], [0], [3], [],
[],
[], []
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [17090], [], [], [],
[], [], [],
[]
ORA-12012: error on auto execute of job 41
ORA-12008: error in snapshot refresh path
And it gets worse. I tried shutting down the database with 'shutdown immediate'...nothing. 'Shutdown abort'..ok. Startup returns:
SQL> conn / as sysdba
Connected to an idle instance.
SQL> startup
ORACLE instance started.
Total System Global Area 87521768 bytes
Fixed Size 104936 bytes
Variable Size 38092800 bytes
Database Buffers 49152000 bytes
Redo Buffers 172032 bytes
ORA-01102: cannot mount database in EXCLUSIVE mode
SQL>
I then shutdown abort and ps -ef | grep SID. There are several
processes
out there. I try to kill -9 them but they won't go away.
Sysadmins can't kill the processes either. We reboot the
machine, processes
are gone. Startup the database. Run the refresh.....it 'hangs' for
hours
and hours. Shutdown the database after trying to figure out what is
going
on (possibly rollback from crash?...but no) and the try to restart
but
receive the same unable to mount error with associated processes.
The other
weird thing is that the majority of datafiles in the database
have not been
touched or updated by oracle in some time.
I don't know what to do.
I opened a tar from oracle but have received no help so far. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
chris
