Hello All,
  I have an instance that keeps crashing and I am not sure why. I have been working with another DBA and he can't figure it out either. Hopefully some of you can help.

  We are running an application called Clintrial which runs on top of the Oracle database. The problem started not long after two datafiles were added (one to the system tablespace and the other to an index tablespace). Before that there had been no problems with the instance. The alert log shows that the statements processed correctly and there was no other alters performed that day. I have been assured that nothing else was changed in the Oracle database or the OS and that the users are doing nothing out of the ordinary. But, 30 minutes after the datafiles were added the instance crashed and it has been doing it on a regular basis. Looking at the trace files, we thought that there were not enough redo logs. But since this has begun, I have added an additional 6 redo logs and it is still crashing!

  Any help at all on this will be greatly appreciated. The HW/SW particulars, Alert file info and trace files are below.

TIA,
Darryl
