Re: Oracle 7 Server weirdness

This sounds like you are archiving to a tape and the archiver has not finished writing that particular log and you are trying to re-use it. One solution is to create more members of the log file groups. Another is to archive to a different, faster media. (I am running 7.1.3 on a Sparcserver 1000 with Solaris 2.3 and have no problems of this nature at all.) Also, curious as to what your rollback problems may be.
