Instance means the background processes and memory structures database means the physical files

Oracle seems to be very resiliant even in these extreme circumstances ?(indeed I have had a operator kill -9 in error all processes for 4 instances - they all came back after restart with no problems)

You should have an Oracle Error Messages Manual on your shelf :- )

ORA-27062: skgfospo: could not find pending async I/Os Cause: This is an internal error. There should have been some async I/Os in the system, but a blocking aiowait indicates that there are no more I/Os.

Action: Look for trace file, and contact Oracle Support.
