Re: pmon hogging CPU on 8i for Linux

If you are using a 8.0 listener, that may be causing the problem. 8.1 pmon will automatically try to register the instance with the listener. It tries to contact a listener based on what init.ora parameter local_listener is set to, or port 1521 by default. The problem is that a 8.1 pmon will go into a tight loop under certain conditions, but only with a 8.0 listener. If this matches your setup, either use the 8.1 listener instead, or change local_listener to some port that is not using a 8.0 listener.
Hope this helps, Doug.
