I'm getting ORA-1115  errors that do not appear in the  alert log nor do they  specify 
the file name  nor the block id, when performing certain operations against large, 100 
million row plus tables.  This is a 9.0.1.3 database.

I have seen some responses on other OS's which recommend turning off aysnchronous IO.  
As the file systems are cooked, which means Solaris will first try kernel AIO whch 
will fail, afterwhich  the IO will be completed by a user thread.  I have felt that 
when the Oracle documentaion refers to poor implementation of AIO, they are speaking 
of Solaris, but I haven't had a system sensitive to it before.

Inceasing the number of file descriptors is also mentioned.  I may do this based on 
the future needs of the database, but the busiest process iscurrently only holding 
open files which number about 40% of the soft limit for that parameter.

The system  adminsitrators report no problems with the T3's which hold the file 
system.  I am able to export the database without incident, and also validate the 
indexes via analyze command.  What fails are such things as create index, 
dbms_stats.analyze_schema.
