disk corruption?

2001-06-28 Thread Jerry C

Hi all,

I'm getting a disk error:

ORA-01115: IO error reading block from file 9 (block # 262144)
ORA-01110: data file 9: '/orafiles/data01/xlepmprd/ewlarge.dbf'
ORA-27072: skgfdisp: I/O error
SVR4 Error: 25: Inappropriate ioctl for device
Additional information: 262143

My sysadmin tells me that the disk is ok, since there are no errors in
/var/adm/messages (I didn't see any, either). Is there a way to verify that
the disk is free of errors?? Any other log files to look at? The platform is
Sun:

SunOS msubxm01 5.6 Generic_105181-12 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-4


Thanks!

Jerry

  Hi Jerry block # 262144 is the last 
  block in a 2GB file assuming 8k block size. There are few Oracle bugs 
  associated with this..Refer docid 110573.1. Also, refer bugs 1063586 or 
  1152315. It is to do with files beyond 2GB. Also What version of Oracle 
  you are running ? 
  


   
   Also you may want to truss Oracle shadow 
process and see what call is failing..

Jerry,

If you're on 8.0.x and file 9 is  2GB then it's a
known bug (774252) when a read crosses the 2GB
boundary.

The datafile is not corrupt, Oracle is merely unable
to read it properly.

It wasn't fixed in any of the patchsets, but there are
PSE's (patchset exceptions) for most 8.0.x versions. 
Log a tar with support to get the right one for your
specific RDBMS version.

HTH,

Jerry,

We had this problem recently on Solaris 2.6 and Oracle 8.0.5, Oracle
initially said upgrade to the 8.0.5.2 patch will fix the problem, we ended
up upgraded to the 8.0.6.2 to get rid of the problem. Anita is right about
the datafile is still intact, it just a read error, you can run dbv to
verify it.
