Hi All,

Has anyone heard about this problem before?

Apparently, my production database server has "mutex contention on database server", it is reported by "Virtual Adrian"(some kind of
tools).

This server is a SUN v440 , 4 CPU , running solaris 5.9.

It has only one instance running oracle 8.1.7.4 and the database is around 140 Gig in size. It is a pretty fast OLTP.

My question is how to solve this problem ? It is related to those /etc/system kernel parameter for Oracle, like semaphore.

I am going to search in the oracle metalink FORUM now.

Thanks,
