HI all,

We have a development server, a replica of the production. Some=
 process produced a lot of archives and it ran out of archiving=
 space. Now it was the only location specified for the archives=
 and it was mandatory. So when no space was left on it to store=
 the newly produced archives, it should have stopped working. But=  it didn't. I deleted the archives and closed every session and=  shut down the database and restarted it. But eversince I=  restarted it, (and I have done it 3-4 times already) Oracle is=  using 100%CPU. I have left the server on, without any body=  connecting to it, (users can connect as the database is OPEN=  without any problem, its just some transaction-cleaning or=  background process which is going on) but the server remains=  unchanged i.e. using 100% for over an hour (after an hour I shut=  it down and restarted and it still is the same) There is no unusual entry in the alert lofile or any trace files.=  I can't do any query to find out anything, as the system is so=  slow. There is no problem of space either. "Event viewer" of=  Win2000 also shows nothing unusual or new. Any ideas, its somewhat urgent.
Hussain
