Oracle did a memory dump to udump which grew to 3.4 GBs. Any idea why? I thought 
memory dumps went to the cdump directory. 

Shutdown immediate didnt work. It just hung. So we did a shutdown abort. Everything is 
fine. Im just concerned. All the procedure did was the following:

pseudocode

procedure blah is

begin

throw exception

when others then

dbms_Alert.signal(constant that is not registered)
dbms_output.
end;
/
clearly it hung on alert since we didnt commit. any idea why killing it caused this 
problem?
