This same oda server patch also caused my x3-2 to bomb on one node. (on GI)

Still working on getting that back up.

Hi Ian,

Yes, we run ASM in all our environments. They are also all on the same patch versions, so that can be excluded. The only difference is the problem box is an ODA, the others are HP Proliants and ExaData. I tend to blaming ODA - any patching session on the PoS so far has included several sev1 SRs. It's hardly normal...

Next year it will be replaced with another ExaData - can't wait!

Cheers,
Tony

a typical response was

./.patch_storage/18522509_Jun_30_2014_08_14_42/files/lib/libasmclntsh11.a/kgfm.o

This on a server with internal disks and not using ASM so there is no GI applied. It seems the problem may lie with ASM. Do the servers which did not fail also use ASM.

 Even starting in nomount mode gives ORA-600.

I just attempted to create a dummy instance with a init.ora file with only 1 line in it (db_name = ORCL) - no ASM, no spfile in play. Starting that also failed with the same ORA-600 [kgfmGetCtx0].

Cheers,
Tony
