RE: How to know the problem is overheating in the hardware

It is a general problem. We had it a few years ago at a customer site. (another job) The disk drive would corrupt data. It generally took 4 or 5 hours until the problem showed up. Since we were trying to diagnose the problem remotely and couldn't see and feel what was going on heat wasn't appearant. THe room was cold, but the machines were arranged so the server was blocked from the air flow. It is quite common now for servers to come with a temp sensor. You then have software to tell you when things are going awry. Jim

Subject: How to know the problem is overheating in the hardware  

Hi list,
recently I had a problem with a customer, we solved the problem but the situation was really strange, it seemd to be something in the hardware.

Some week ago I went to his office and discovered they had a problem with aeration, the room where is the computer was extremely hot.

The point is, if there is some trick to know if there is a problem cause by exposing the server to overheating for some periods, from Oracle database.
I don't think there is, but I ask anyway.

Thank you.
