Jerry,

We also encountered the UNDEFINED objects. On investigation it was found to be summary object created when you create snapshots. This according to the metablink was a problem in 8.1.6 on solaris 2.6 and thats what we have here.
The quick check for this was querying sys.obj$ for the object_id of one of these object and if type# = 42 then its the aforementioned problem.

Hi there.

What the heck is an object_type of undefined? When I select * from dba_objects where status = 'INVALID' , I get a bunch of objects with an object_type of UNDEFINED.

Thanks for any insight!

Jerry
