Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> no alert.log
hi list
we had a major outage at exodus lastnight. blew up both machines with 6 production databases. SAs have brought most of the disks back up but not $ORACLE_BASE (or $ORACLE_HOME). how can our databases be up if the alert.log(s) live on the unmounted disks? doesn't an oracle database have to be able to write to alert.log in order to start?
our databases are up. i've checked all the processes which are running (ps
-ef | grep ora), and i'm able to connect to all 6 remotely (just not
locally since the binaries for sqlplus and svrmgrl also live on those
unmounted disks). we are running 8.1.6 on solaris.
thanks,
kris
