| I'd like more information on how to determine the cause of a startup
delay, so I'll just attach to this note, rather than starting a new one.
We've got a UNIX TruCluster Production Server with two nodes, and three
shared disks. I set up four or five partitions on each raw device, and
have one DRD service per device. We've had some hardware problems with
the disks, so I'm trying to determine whether my troubles are related
to the disk hardware, or something else...
One of my coworkers set up a test database last week, and I can't seem
to get into it today. After I do the: startup pfile=xyz command in the
service manager, I see the SGA statistics, but then I seem to be in an
endless wait state, never seeing the database mount or open statements.
Is there a way to tell what this statement is waiting on? If the disk
is unavailable, will I eventually get an error, or will it just wait
forever?
