Oracle crash produces no logs or dumps

Greetings all -

I've had 3 of the several databases I run crash in the past 2 months without producing any logs or dumps. I have BACKGROUND_DUMP_DEST, etc. set. What else can I set so that Oracle is more verbose when it encounters a problem?

For instance, today, some users filled up the rollback segments on a 8.1.7.0 database, producing a ORA-1650. Right after that, I could not connect to the database via sqlplus. Via svrmgrl, I got "Oracle not available" when doing a test query. Shutdown abort in srvmgrl returned a success message, but several server process continued to run. After about 10 minutes of trying to diagnose it, I gave up and rebooted the box.

I am running Oracle 8.1.5.1 and 8.1.7.0 on Solaris 7.

Thanks.
