Hi All, Under Aix 5.2, Oracle 9.2.0.4.0 (local database), we've used the manual copy method to install ARServer 6.3 Patch 21. We are using a script to execute this, so the manual install has been identical on all three servers. This worked fine on DEV and QC. On PROD, we see the following lines echoed to CON when trying to run "arsystem start" after the patch has been applied: (ARNOTE 0) Server indicates that it's up.
(ARNOTE 0) Server (pid:18403474) died with 0. Tried 4 restarts in 30 seconds. I give up... The pid varies, and the ARError.Log does not indicate why the Server dies. 9 out of 10 times, it is actually dead. The other 1 of 10 restarts, the CON indicates it's death, but it's still running, and able to be connected to by clients. If the patch is backed out, the previous unpatched 6.3 works fine. We've patched and unpatched this several times, with the same results. Our Unix Admins and DBAs have verified that the JDKs, DB, and OS are all patched to the same levels no all three servers. We've compared the files paths, sizes, permissions, and ownerships of the patched files on all three servers and they match. We've also compared the ar.conf, armonitor.conf, etc... We initially thought this may be an issue with TSM, as we backup the file system on PROD, but not DEV or QC. We had Production Control kill off the backups, and tried it again. Same results. If anyone has any thoughts on this, we'd much appreciate them.
