Babu - Are you running this session in the background? On my system (Compaq
Tru64), when I run a SQL*Plus script in the background, I have to put the
EXIT command as the last command of the script. Otherwise the script just
sits there and echos the prompt into the spool file until it fills up the
disk. My system administrator isn't too happy when this occurs, so I try to
be careful.

Thats what I thought. But here is more details on the issue..
 
I am running a SQL*PLus session with a massive query that returns about 2.5g
of data, i am spooling the data to file - that is something similar to what
the essbase application is trying to do.
 
that session spooled the data in around 2 hours - so the access paths are
fine. after getting the data though, my sql session has still not completed.
from the size of the spool file i can see the data came more then three
hours ago. this session is still doing something and these waits are
increasnig and sql is not returning the SQL prompt to me...
 
trying to find out why...
