Database hanging 10g R2

I am using 10g R2 on IBM-AIX (AIX 5.3) server. Yesterday and today morning I faced one issue of hanging of the database. Users were not able to login (even sys was not able to login). Nothing was there in the alert log. When I checked system statstics using topas command, one disk (on which half of the datafiles reside) was 100% busy in IO. (There is another small database on the same disk also, but that runs fine, though not much work is done on that). There was one process that was consuming about 10-12% of CPU. As I had no login, so was not able to see, what exactly was going on. Finally I killed that resource consuming process (with kill -9) which brought the IO to normal. After that when I ran SQLPLUS on the server (through a ssh session) it seemed like hung, but then I pressed Ctrl + C and it was back to SQL prompt. From there I could shutdown the database and then restart. For the time being it is running fine. What could be the reasons for this behaviour and any hints/tips for troubleshooting this scenario (if happens again)
Thanks

Collect the information from awr and ash (Active Session History) and see what cause the issues.
Stop guessing work. Oracle records everything into ASH and AWR.
I would also be intrested knowing the wait events.
What was the cpu cosumption at that time?
How about listeners?
10g has problems with dynamic listener where you will see couple of listeners running on the OS. You need to kill the dynamic one.

  • Oracle 10g Database Hanging twice a day

    My database server has 10g with MS 2003 server as OS.
    Twice a day the database hangs and does disconnects all the users from local and remote locations.
    Current SYSTEM tablespace has a size of 470 MB and is 98.86 in use, when I try to add another datafile as 'SYSTEM02.DBF' in the same path where other system data files are, I kept this operation running during weekends but datafile was not added.
    Has it anything to do with the MS 2003 server no. of users.
    Any other suggestions for SYSTEM Tablespace to be free.
    Please reply.
    Thanks

    Hi friends / sameer,
    Sorry for the delay. Here is the attached alert.log file Since the data from foxpro was loaded into oracle on to oracle 10 g from 7th may the problem of database hanging started from the next day. I joined the organization on 22nd july.

  • Shutting down database hangs

    Dear Gurus,
    I m facing a database hang issue while performing the scheduled offline backup.I m able to take the online backup.When the backup starts , the database starts to shutdown.When checked in the log of backup it shows in tail as shutting down database.When checked for user trace , it shows message as "Attempting to kill pid xxxxxxx" and keeps on retrying for n no. of times.Then I have to manually kill the backup and restart the application.Then again try for an offline backup.This time it happens smoothly.This activity we did for couple of weeks .But now from past 3 days even after restarting the backup, it goes to hang mode.In other words unable to perform the backup activity.
    The message had been raised to SAP from almost 15 days at very high.They every time ask the logs , and say that the data in log is nt providing much info for analysing the issue or cause of hang.Also enabled the traces of 10400 for trace level 1 ,10 some more traces also.But still the output is not helping even them to analyse the root cause.
    Its my observation that this issue is occuring only on ABAP+JAVA systems(CRM &BIW)not in ECC.We are on oracle database 10.2.0.0.4 with latest patch set as suggested by SAP for the same issue.
    This issue is h
    Please suggest me at the earliest.As need to resolve this at the earliest.
    Bye.

    Assuming you see the above error message in the alert log file, which was your original post, follow the below steps:
    1 Get the 'ospid' value from the error
    2. Issue the below command:
    SQL> select request_id,ORACLE_PROCESS_ID
      2 from fnd_concurrent_requests
      3 where request_id = 15598;
    3. After obtaining the request_id
    4, Query it from the front-end using SYSADMIN responsibility
    Hopefully this should get you the respective concurrent report/program.
    Thanks &
    Best Regards,

  • TIP 04: Duplicating a Database in 10g by Joel Pèrez

    Hi OTN Readers!
    Everyday I get connection on Internet and one of the first issues that
    I do is to open the OTN main page to look for any new article or any
    new news about the Oracle Technology. After I open the main page of
    OTN Forums and I check what answers I can write to help some people
    to work with the Oracle Technology and I decided to begin to write some
    threads to help DBAs and Developers to learn the new features of 10g.
    I hope you can take advantage of them which will be published here in
    this forum. For any comment you can write to me directly to : [email protected] . Apart from your comments you can suggest to me any topic to write an article like this.
    Please do not replay this thread, if you have any question related to
    this I recommend you to open a new post. Thanks!

    Note: two important issues to denote in the sentence above is the word "SET" instead of "REUSE" and the controlfiles must be recreated in RESETLOG mode because the database must be opened in RESETLOG mode.
    If you use the word "REUSE" instead of "SET" the opening of the database is going to request recovery of the datafile of the tablespace system.
    So, apply this to recreate the controlfiles:
    - Start the service in windows for the database COPY2
    - Get connection through SQL*Plus as system
    - Shut down the database with shutdown abort
    - Start the database up in nomount stage
    - apply the sentence to recreate the controlfile.

  • How to create database in 10g xe

    How to create database in 10g xe? could you please direct me to which documentation in 10g xe website? is it possible to create the db from the web console? if so, how? I can't seem to find a way to do it? Thanks

    You cannot: there can only be one XE database per host and it's created when you install Oracle XE.

  • Logical Standby Database with 10g+ASM on both sides??

    Hi out there,
    is there a known way to establish a logical standby database on 10g, if both
    sides are running with an ASM setup?
    I've tried to create one out of a physical standby database (which is set up
    and running w/o any problems), like a book suggested me to do.
    The procedure was:
    1. switch on supplemental logging
    2. prepare initiation parameters (for archive logging etc.) on both sides for
    logical stb.
    3. shut down the phyiscal standby
    4. alter database create logical standby controlfile as '<path>'; on the
    primary, transfer the controlfile to the standby db. Here I had to use RMAN
    to copy the controlfile into the ASM System, and modify the initfile/spfile
    in order to use the controlfile. No problem so far.
    5. mount the standby database, alter database recover managed standby database
    disconnect; -> At this point, the alert log complained about non-available
    datafiles.
    6. alter database activate standby database; --> fails ("needs recovery") due
    to last point.
    The trouble is, the controlfile created at point 4 cointains wrong paths to
    the datafiles. Since I can not have the same disk group name on the standby
    system, and since ASM renames the stored datafiles by its own, the complaints
    of point 5 are comprehensible, but nevertheless annoying.
    I tried to backup a controlfile to trace and change the paths, but at after
    mounting the standby with this controlfile and proceeding at point 5, the
    system says "<path> is not a standby controlfile"
    Is there a different way of creating a "Logical Standby Database with 10g+ASM
    on both sides"? Metalink said nothing about LogStby and ASM.
    Best regards and thanks in advance,
    Martin

    I'm not sure if this will work but try:
    1. create trace control file (you did it)
    2. change paths (you did it)
    3. recrate control file (you did it)
    ... there was error occured during mount before
    so mount database (not as standby)
    4. create standby control file (from recreated control file)
    5. shutdown instance, replace control file with new standby control file or replace the control filename in parameter file.
    6. mount as standby
    What happend?
    Update: Tested on my side and it has worked fine... How about you?

  • Physical Standby database Oracle 10g Standard Edition

    Hello,
    I open a new question about testing a standby database a because of this:
    I realize that my standby database is 10g Standard and not Enterprise and not 11g.
    Because for testing we plan to modify data on Standby, we are looking for some way to restore Standby to the point before testing.
    So, I can't use Flashback Recovery Area for restoring my database to a certain point after testing.
    In this scenario, the only way that I think is:
    On Standby
    - Shutdown database
    - Copy by O/S all datafiles, temp files, control files and redo logs. That will be my backup before testing.
    - Open database, test and modify data
    - When test is finished, shutdown database
    - Copy and replace by O/S all datafiles, temp files, control files and redo logs from backup place
    - Open database as standby and apply all archived redo logs needed.
    Would be it work without problem or should I copy other files?

    it comes under Refresh of database, use --> cleanup --> restore.
    If its enterprise edition , you can use procedure mentioned in this note How To Open Physical Standby For Read Write Testing and Flashback [ID 805438.1]

  • Oracle 8i database hangs for the same amount during JDBC calls.

    Hi all,
    I have a Oracle 8i database on solaris. The database hangs for exactly 61 seconds for a random jdbc call from my Java application, i mean there is no particular pattern or a JDBC call for which the database hangs. If i choose to wait for 61 seconds it returns the results from the database but if i try to access the database with another query(SQL Plus) the first query starts executing immediately. Is that a database configuration problem or some thing else.
    And i also get some exceptions occasionally( Maximum Open Cursors exception). Are these two related?
    Any feedback is appreciated.
    Thanks
    Hugo Victor

    I have uninstalled Oracle 8i.
    Removed all the services from Windows services by deleting corresponding registry entries and deleted the Oracle folder.
    I have reinstalled Oracle 8i, this time i changed the name of global database to oracledb.
    I channged the tnsnames.ora file from DevSuite appropriately as:
    # tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: C:\DevSuiteHome_1\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
    # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
    EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =

    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = mscserver)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = ORACLEDB)
    Still it can't login using scott/tiger authentication.
    What may be the problem? Please help.

  • Available Now: Oracle Database Lite 10g Release 1

    The Oracle Database Lite development team is pleased to announce the availability of Oracle Database Lite 10g (10.0.0.0.0) for Windows 2000/XP, Solaris 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS/ES 2.1/3.0 platforms.
    The Windows release is currently available from OTN at:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/lite/index.html
    Oracle Database Lite 10g is a complete and integrated solution for rapid development and deployment of high impact, mission vital applications for mobile and lightweight embedded environments. Oracle Database Lite is an extension to Oracle Database 10g for enterprises wanting to increase productivity, reduce operational costs, and improve customer satisfaction.
    Oracle Database Lite uses data synchronization to reliably and securely exchange data between a corporate Oracle Database and mobile workers. Oracle Database Lite also allows companies to deploy and manage users, mobile applications and devices from a remote central location. Oracle Database Lite provides the necessary framework enterprise customers need to extend their enterprise applications and data to the most popular mobile platforms: Palm OS, Linux, Microsoft Windows CE/PPC, and Microsoft Windows NT/2000/XP/UNIX.
    The following is a partial list of new features for Oracle Database Lite 10g that will make your mobile deployment easier to manage, use, and develop. A complete list will be available for download/viewing soon.
    Device Management
    As the number of mobile devices in an enterprise increases, it becomes more important to have complete control of the devices. Oracle Database Lite Device Management is a complete infrastructure to monitor and manage Oracle Database Lite assets such as database files, software libraries, data, and application files on remote devices. Device management decreases the total cost of ownership and protects an enterprises intellectual property.
    Single Oracle Lite Binary
    The Oracle Database Lite 10g release contains a single set of Oracle Lite database kernel binaries for all languages, removing the necessity of having different binaries for each of the following languages: Korean, Traditional Chinese, simplified Chinese, Japanese, and US/European languages.
    Shared Map
    The shared map function greatly improves performance by reducing sync processing timeand enhances the scalability of shared publication items. Shared maps allow users to share record state information and reduce the size of the resulting replication map tables.
    Offline Instantiation
    Offline instantiation enables quick and easy setup of mobile devices for business applications. Mobile administrators are able to prepare, in batch mode, a client package, which includes the mobile client software and initial data for every mobile user. This procedure helps users avoid an expensive online synchronization processes as part of the first time mobile client setup procedure.
    Synchronization Manager
    The Synchronization Manager is a complete, web-based enterprise management application to manage and monitor synchronization. The Synchronization Manager allows administrators to manage the synchronization service, monitor and analyze sync performance, administer the configuration, trace synchronization history, display and browse synchronization publication and subscription information, and monitor MGP (Message Generator and Processor) performance.
    Oracle Application Server Support
    The Oracle Database Lite 10g Mobile Server now runs as a web application on Oracle Containers for Java (OC4J) – the runtime of Oracle Application Server. If Oracle
    Database Lite 10g is deployed in standalone mode, an embedded version of OC4J will be installed and used. Oracle Database Lite may also be installed against an existing instance of Oracle Application Server.
    Seamless upgrade from Oracle9 i Lite 5.0.2
    The Oracle Database Lite 10g Upgrade Assistant allows customers to easily upgrade from existing Oracle9 i Lite 5.0.2 installations. The Upgrade Assistant automatically converts existing application definitions to the new format, and copies all relevant files to the new installation. As many customers have deployed mission critical systems using Oracle9i Lite technology, the Upgrade Assistant has been designed to minimize system downtime.
    Download
    Oracle Database Lite 10g (10.0.0.0.0) for Windows can now be downloaded from the following location.

    btw the latest patch (generic) is 12812978 actually this morning i installed it in 3 develop servers and 2 customers' without any issue (win 2003 server pcs)
    anw in your case it seems that something possibly was not installed successfully.
    1)press the close(x) button once on the mobileserver , wait some seconds it will say press any key to continue. press it and it will close
    2) restart it. if the same warning comes out then try loggin in the http://localhost/webtogo page, is it working?does the server and mgp appear on?(green tick?)
    3) if it is, try syncing a device, does it sync ok?
    if all is yes then the warning is not important but you should have a look at it. some solutions
    1)reinstalling the patch
    2)or installing a newer patch,
    3)or (i think) you can roll back the patch,
    4)or if we are talking for a release server(customer) raise a service request.
    5)or wait a little for some other forum users to check this thread and perhaps they have runned into such cases
    i would go for number 2
