Raj - Thanks, I forgot about that one. Ryan - you might want to check your value for that parameter. So Raj, was there any value to the 8-gig dump file beyond the first 4-meg of it? Or did you have an error that required you to increase the dump file size in order to diagnose it?

I had some 8G trace files ...

My suggestion would be to change your USER_DUMP_DEST to a drive with more free space, because the DBA's rule of life is that if an error is encountered once, it will probably be encountered again. Also check your alert log, because the error that caused the dump will be mentioned there. Try to diagnose the problem before it whacks you again. Good luck.
