RE: Database/system Crashing

I wonder if a file lock is being left in place when the instance crashes, and the OS does not clear the lock until a reboot. I would think the OS should clear this without a reboot, but stranger things have been seen with OS's ... even Unix. This doesn't explain why the instance crashes. I wonder if fuser would show anything. Are there any NFS mounts involved?

-----Original Message-----
Yes, you're correct and it can write the file to $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/audit once the system is rebooted. Its just that when the database crashes, it can't write to that location until its rebooted. Is it possible that I need to beef up my init.ora parameters?
