Re: Alert Log

Shed some light on your dump parameters? They'd look much better if they had slashes instead of backslashes, but you probably can't help it. Now that you've told us where are your log and trace files, please tell us what's in them. My ESP capabilities are damaged by the snow and I need to actually see the messages to even be able to speculate. Things are bound to improve in the summer. In the meantime, try checking whether PRE_PAGE_SGA parameter is set to TRUE. That sometimes may increase the instance startup time. Also, was your instance shut down regularly or aborted? The instance may have been engaged in instance recovery. If my initial advice was followed ("/" instead of "\"), I could advise you how to change /etc/init.d/oracle, but because of "\", I can't help you.
