In Response To: Re: Locked Mutex session - freezing instance (Art Kagel)

Hi Art and Fernando,

So, unfortunatelly we could have time to generate a full dump at the moment, only a fews onstat are generates.
We started onstat -a , onstat -g all , onstat -g stk all . But keep more the

Art,
The sentinel is in other machine (windows), accessing the database over SOCTCP .

12 CPUvps
NETTYPE ipcshm,3,450,CPU # Configure poll thread(s) for nettype
NETTYPE soctcp,3,450,NET # Configure poll thread(s) for nettype
DBSERVERNAME xyz # Name of default database server
DBSERVERALIASES abc_soc # List of alternate dbservernames

xyz onipcshm host1 xyz_shm
abc_soc onsoctcp host1 abc_soc

At the moment we have no more of 500 sessions..

How many processor cores? How many CPU VPs configured? What are the
NETTYPE, SERVERNAME, and DBSERVERNAME parameter settings from your ONCONFIG
file? What are the relevant sqlhosts file entries for this server? Is
Sentinel also running locally on the server?
