RE: Database slowdown after 100 days uptime

2001-05-29 Thread Raymond Lee Meng Hong

As far as my experience ,my site also got this problem , that is why every
weekend we run a shutdown and restart the Unix box also in order to clean up
some of the unwanted redo log and refresh the memory as well.

it seen like our system become 6*24 instead of 7*24 , but in the business
view is we open only until Saturday. 

but now we have branch open in shopping mall ,and they work in Sunday ?

Keep an eye on free memory -- one of our similar systems has to be restarted
every 60 days to prevent the behaviour you're encountering.   We haven't
determined the source of the memory leak, but if we permit it to continue
eventually the DB stops responding and cannot be shut down.  This system
does
some analytical work for us so it has different connection and activity
profiles than the others, so I've a limited basis for comparison, but the
other
8.1.5 databse (this one's data source) shows similar problems over a longer
period.
My plan is to take it up to 8.1.7 as those systems are not showing that sort
of
problem.

Keep an eye on free memory -- one of our similar systems has to be restarted
every 60 days to prevent the behaviour you're encountering.   We haven't
determined the source of the memory leak, but if we permit it to continue
eventually the DB stops responding and cannot be shut down.  This system does
some analytical work for us so it has different connection and activity
profiles than the others, so I've a limited basis for comparison, but the other
8.1.5 databse (this one's data source) shows similar problems over a longer

RE: Database slowdown after 100 days uptime

2001-05-29 Thread Mark Marsden

Hi Bruce

Yep there is something on Metalink about this when server uptime is > 248
days
(I know it sounds unbelievable).
Happened to me, databases slowing/hanging and I could only shutdown abort
databases.
Rebooted and everything worked fine.

HTH

Mark.

Hi,

There is an alert (Note:118228.1) ALERT: Hang During Startup/Shutdown on Unix
When System Uptime > 248 Days.

But, you are using NT. do you have other errors in alert.log before crash or is
there core.log ?

Database slowdown after 100 days uptime

2001-05-27 Thread Reardon, Bruce (CALBBAY)

Hi,

We're running Oracle 8.1.5.1.1 on NT 4.

On Saturday our database started getting much slower
 - to me, there didn't seem to be any major events showing up in
v$session_wait, v$session_event

Restarting the database instance and service solved the performance
problems.

Today, when reviewing logs of the queries I noticed that the database had
been up for 100 days when it started slowing.

The 100 days uptime may be unrelated, but has anyone seen this behaviour on
any platform?

For information, the server itself has been up for 242 days (240 days when
the problem started occurring).

Thanks,
Bruce Reardon
