Increase the size of your redologs and your problem will be resolved. You
may increase size to 200Mb each and reduce number of files to 5/6 if space
problem.

There's an init.ora parameter, DB_WRITERS (??) that you can
change. For 7.2, huummm, I not sure you can add more dbwr's in 7.2. But
with the error you're getting, I'd also add more redo log groups. Sure
you've got eight! But you can always use more redo log groups, it never
hurts.
