Probably a Unix issue, but nevertheless:

When my databases auto-started at 06:00 this mornig, the server console popped up (and kept repeating) this error message:

WARNING: Sorry, no swap space to grow stack for pid 11985 (oracle)

As we were unable to login at the console and we were unable to connect using a telnet session, I do not know what process 11985 is.

We had to restart the server, after which everything was fine again. As I am not too keen about an enture server locking up, I would like to know if anybody out there is familiar with this problem.
