Hi Mladen,

We have upgraded to Solaris 11.4 and relinked the Oracle homes couple of months ago.

As the system call nanosleep hangs, it should be an OS issue:

pstack 14583
14583: ora_vktm_DB
00007fff93c76eba nanosleep (7fffbfffc7d0, 7fffbfffc7e0) 00000000072f3e9a sltrusleep () + 6a
000000000758b994 kstmrmtickcntkeeper () + 5a4 000000000758b1f4 kstmmainvktm () + 194

00000000072f5869 ksbrdp () + 9a9
0000000006efc489 opirip () + 2b9
0000000006118950 opidrv () + 160

0000000006118767 sou2o () + 97
0000000006118534 opimai_real () + a4
000000000611808b ssthrdmain () + 26b
0000000006117df9 main () + a9
0000000007771e34 ???????? ()

truss -f -p 14583
14583: nanosleep(0x7FFFBFFFC7D0, 0x7FFFBFFFC7E0) (sleeping...)

In the meantime, we have a suspect: TimeKeeper. That’s a network time sync software installed by sysadmin to fulfill some legal requirements. We’re going to switch it off on the test server and observe.

Best regards,

Nenad

Nenad, this maybe silly: have you recently done a Solaris upgrade? For instance to 11.4? If that is the case you may need to relink your Oracle home. That might fix the problem. Regards
