Running 8.1.7.4 on RS6000/AiX 4.3.3. We noticed this weekend that all our
full exports performed via sqlbacktrack for a given database were hanging.
Killing the exports and restarting does not work.
Checking waits, it looks as though the full exports start hanging on buffer
busy waits, on the same file/block as SMON, which in turn has been stuck it
appears, the entire weekend:
SID EVENT P1TEXT P1 P2TEXT P2 P3TEXT P3

SQL_TEXT

select i.obj#, i.flags, u.name, o.name
from sys.obj$ o, sys.user$ u, sys.ind$ i
where (bitand(i.flags, 256) = 256
or bitand(i.flags, 512) = 512)
and (not((i.type# = 9) and bitand(i.flags,8) = 8))
and o.obj#=i.obj# and o.owner# = u.user#
Before we resort to a bounce, I'm hoping that someone here may have seen this
before, or at least, have some idea as to what's going on with SMON.
TIA.
