I'm running Oracle 7.3.2.3.2 on VMS 7.1 on an Alpha.

A couple of times recently the server has crashed. Each time it appears that that crash occurred during an export of the database. I suspect that the cause of the crash was a table being updated while it was being exported. Does this sound like a known bug? The export seems to be the precipitating factor, we've had no crashes occur when export isn't running.

The export command being used is:

$exp / consistent=n full=y direct=y file=dat4vm2:[ORACLE_BACKUPS]MALASP.DMP -

LOG=DAT4VM2:[ORACLE_BACKUPS]MALASP.LOG --
