ORA-00031: session marked for kill: Cause: The session specified in an ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command cannot be killed immediately (because it is rolling back or blocked on a network operation), but it has been marked for kill. This means it will be killed as soon as possible after its current uninterruptable operation is done.; Action: No action is required for the session to be killed, but further executions of the ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command on this session may cause the session to be killed sooner.
ORA-00032: invalid session migration password: Cause: The session migration password specified in a session creation call was invalid (probably too long).; Action: Retry with a valid password (less than 30 chars).
ORA-00033: current session has empty migration password: Cause: An attempt was made to detach or clone the current session and it has an empty migration password. This is not allowed.; Action: Create the session with a non-empty migration password.

ORA-00038: Cannot create session: server group belongs to another user: Cause: An attempt was made to create a non-migratable session in a server group that is owned by a different user.; Action: A server group is owned by the first user who logs into a server in the server group in non-migratable mode. All subsequent non-migratable mode logins must be made by the user who owns the server group. To have a different user login in non-migratable mode, the ownership of the server group will have to be changed. This can be done by logging off all current sessions and detaching from all existing servers in the server group and then having the new user login to become the new owner.

ORA-00210: cannot open the specified control file: Cause: Cannot open the control file.; Action: Check to make sure the control file exists and is not locked by some other program.
ORA-00211: control file does not match previous control files: Cause: A control file was specified that belongs to another database.; Action: Find and install the correct control file.
ORA-00212: block size string below minimum required size of string bytes: Cause: The block size specified was too small. Space for the system overhead is required.; Action: Specify a larger block size and retry the operation.
ORA-00213: cannot reuse control file; old file size string, string required: Cause: To reuse a control file, it must be the same size as the one previously used.; Action: Either do not specify REUSE, or specify a matching combination of MAXDATAFILES, MAXLOGFILES, MAXLOGMEMBERS, MAXLOGHISTORY, and MAXINSTANCES clauses in the CREATE DATABASE or CREATE CONTROLFILE statement.
ORA-00214: control file 'string' version string inconsistent with file 'string' version string: Cause: An inconsistent set of control files, datafiles/logfiles, and redo files was used.; Action: Use a consistant set of control files, datafiles/logfiles, and redo log files. That is, all the files must be for the same database and from the same time period.
ORA-00215: must be at least one control file: Cause: No control file is specified or the control file specified does not exist.; Action: Specify at least one valid control file and retry the operation.
ORA-00216: control file could not be resized for migration from 8.0.2: Cause: The control file created by release 8.0.2 was missing some record types. These record types are automatically added by resizing the control file during mount. The resize has failed.; Action: Look in the alert log for the reason that the resize has failed. If indicated in the alert log, give the control file more space. Otherwise, use the CREATE CONTROLFILE script dumped to the trace file to create a new control file.
ORA-00217: control file could not be resized for new record types: Cause: The control file was missing some new record types supported by this release. These record types are automatically added by resizing the contol file during mount. The resize has failed.; Action: Look in the alert log for the reason that the resize has failed. If indicated in the alert log, give the control file more space. Otherwise, use the CREATE CONTROLFILE script dumped to the trace file to create a new control file.
ORA-00218: block size string of control file 'string' does not match DB_BLOCK_SIZE (string): Cause: The block size as stored in the control file header is different from the value of the initialization parameter DB_BLOCK_SIZE. This might be due to an incorrect setting of DB_BLOCK_SIZE, or else might indicate that the control file has either been corrupted or belongs to a different database.; Action: Restore a good copy of the control file. If the control file is known to be clean set the DB_BLOCK_SIZE to match control file headers block size value.
ORA-00219: required control file size (string logical blocks) exceeds maximum allowable size (string logical blocks): Cause: An invocation of CREATE DATABASE or CREATE CONTROLFILE was executed specifying a combination of parameters that would require the control file size in blocks to exceed the maximum allowable value.; Action: In the case of CREATE DATABASE or CREATE CONTROLFILE, use a different combination of MAXDATAFILES, MAXLOGFILES, MAXLOGMEMBERS, MAXLOGHISTORY, and MAXINSTANCES clauses.
ORA-00220: control file not mounted by first instance, check alert log for more info: Cause: The specified control file has a different mount ID than the other control files that are being mounted. This means that the first instance to mount the database did not use this control file.; Action: Find and install the correct control file.
ORA-00221: error on write to control file: Cause: An error occurred when writing to one or more of the control files.; Action: See accompanying messages.
ORA-00222: operation would reuse name of a currently mounted control file: Cause: The filename supplied as a parameter to the ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE command or to cfileSetSnapshotName matches the name of the specified currently mounted control file.; Action: Retry the operation with a different filename.
ORA-00223: convert file is invalid or incorrect version: Cause: An Oracle7 to Oracle8 convert file contains invalid data or was created with an different version of the migration utility. This error can also be caused by incorrect ORACLE_HOME environment variable when ALTER DATABASE CONVERT command is issued.; Action: Use a correct version of the convert file or regenerate it with the migration utility. Make sure that the migration utility is the same version as the Oracle8 RDBMS executable and that the ORACLE_HOME environment variable is properly set.
ORA-00224: control file resize attempted with illegal record type (string): Cause: An attempt was made to expand or shrink the control file by calling cfileResizeSection using an invalid value for the RECORD_TYPE parameter.; Action: Use a value for the RECORD_TYPE parameter that specifies a valid record type other than type 0 (valid range is 1-16).
ORA-00225: expected size string of control file differs from actual size string: Cause: The expected size of the control file as stored in its header was different than the actual operating system file size. This usually indicates that the control file was corrupted.; Action: Restore a good copy of the control file.
ORA-00226: operation disallowed while alternate control file open: Cause: The attempted operation could not be executed at this time because this process had an alternate control file open for fixed table access.; Action: Retry the operation after calling cfileUseCurrent.
ORA-00227: corrupt block detected in control file: (block string, # blocks string): Cause: A block header corruption or checksum error was detected on reading the control file.; Action: Use the CREATE CONTROLFILE or RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE command.
ORA-00228: length of alternate control file name exceeds maximum of string: Cause: The specified filename, which was supplied as a parameter to cfileSetSnapshotName or cfileUseCopy, exceeds the maximum filename length for this operating system.; Action: Retry the operation with a shorter filename.

ORA-00239: timeout waiting for control file enqueue: held by 'string' for more than string seconds: Cause: The specified process waited the maximum allowed time for the control file enqueue.; Action: Restart the blocking instance indicated in the incident trace file or reboot the blocking node.
ORA-00240: control file enqueue held for more than string seconds: Cause: The current process did not release the control file enqueue within the maximum allowed time.; Action: Reissue any commands that failed and contact Oracle Support Services with the incident information.
ORA-00241: operation disallowed: control file is not yet checked against data dictionary: Cause: Either the control file was recently created by using CREATE CONTROLFILE, an incomplete recovery was done, or some previous operations require the control file to be re-checked against the data dictionary.; Action: Shut down and restart the database or the pluggable database so that the check is performed, and then retry the operation.
ORA-00242: maximum allowed filename records used up in control file: Cause: Failed to create a new filename record entry in the control file because the maximum allowed filename records have been allocated and are in use.; Action: Free up controlfile filename section entries by dropping unwanted tablespaces/datafiles/redofiles.
ORA-00243: failed to expand control file filename section by string records: Cause: Failed to expand control file filename section. See alert log for more details.; Action: Retry the operation after increasing disk space for controlfile expansion.
ORA-00244: concurrent control file backup operation in progress: Cause: Failed to create a control file backup because concurrent control file backup operation was in progress.; Action: Retry backup creation later.
ORA-00245: control file backup failed; in Oracle RAC, target might not be on shared storage: Cause: Failed to create a control file backup because some process signaled an error during backup creation. This is likely caused by the backup target (i.e., RMAN snapshot controlfile) being on a local file system so it could not be accessed by other instances. It can also be caused by other I/O errors to the backup target. Any process of any instance that starts a read/write control file transaction must have access to the backup control file during backup creation.; Action: Check whether RMAN snapshot controlfile is on shared storage. Also, check alert files of all instances for further information.
ORA-00246: control file backup failed; error accessing backup target: Cause: An attempt to create a control file backup failed because some process signaled an I/O error when accessing the backup target.; Action: Check alert and trace files for further information.
ORA-00250: archiver not started: Cause: An attempt was made to stop automatic archiving, but the archiver process was not running.; Action: No action required.
ORA-00251: LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST cannot be the same destination as string string: Cause: The destination specified by the LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST parameter is the same as the destination specified by an ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START TO command.; Action: Specify a different destination for parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST, or specify a different destination with the ALTER SYSTEM command.
ORA-00252: log string of thread string is empty, cannot archive: Cause: A log must be used for redo generation before it can be archived. The specified redo log was not been used since it was introduced to the database. However it is possible that instance death during a log switch left the log empty.; Action: Empty logs do not need to be archived. Do not attempt to archive the redo log file.
ORA-00253: The character limit of string is exceeded by archive destination string string.: Cause: The destination specified by an ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START TO command was too long.; Action: Modify the ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START TO command with a string shorter than the specified limit.
ORA-00254: error in archive control string 'string': Cause: The specified archive log location was invalid in the archive command or the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST initialization parameter.; Action: Ensure that the used archive string refers to a valid online device.
ORA-00255: error archiving log string of thread string, sequence # string: Cause: An error occurred during archiving.; Action: Check the accompanying message stack for more detailed information. If the online log is corrupted, then the log can be cleared using the UNARCHIVED option. This will make any existing backups useless for recovery to any time after the log was created, but will allow the database to generate redo.
ORA-00256: cannot translate ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START TO destination string string: Cause: The destination specified by an ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START TO command could not be translated.; Action: Check the message stack for more detailed information. Retry the ALTER SYSTEM command using a different destination.
ORA-00257: Archiver error. Connect AS SYSDBA only until resolved.: Cause: The archiver process received an error while trying to archive a redo log. If the problem is not resolved soon, the database will stop executing transactions. The most likely cause of this message is that the destination device is out of space to store the redo log file. Another possible cause is that a destination marked as MANDATORY has failed.; Action: Check the alert log and trace files for detailed error information.
ORA-00258: manual archiving in NOARCHIVELOG mode must identify log: Cause: The database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode and a command to manually archive a log did not specify the log explicitly by sequence number, group number or filename.; Action: Specify log by filename, by group number or by thread and sequence number.
ORA-00259: log string of open instance string (thread string) is the current log, cannot archive: Cause: An attempt was made to archive the current log of an open thread. This was not allowed because the redo log file might be in use for the generation of redo entries.; Action: Force a log switch in the instance where the thread is open. If no instances are open, then open the database so that instance recovery can recover the thread.
ORA-00260: cannot find online log sequence string for thread string: Cause: The log sequence number supplied to the archival command does not match any of the online logs for the thread. The log might have been reused for another sequence number, it might have been dropped, the sequence number might be greater than the current log sequence number, or the thread might not have any logs.; Action: Check the ARCHIVE statement, then specify a valid log sequence number. Specify a valid log sequence number.
ORA-00261: log string of thread string is being archived or modified: Cause: The log is either being archived by another process or an administrative command is modifying the log. Operations that modify the log include clearing, adding a member, dropping a member, renaming a member, and dropping the log.; Action: Wait for the current operation to complete and try again.
ORA-00262: current log string of closed thread string cannot switch log: Cause: The log cannot be cleared or manually archived because it is the current log of a closed thread. Also, it was not possible to switch logs because another log was current. All other logs for the thread must be either archived, or cleared, and cannot be reused.; Action: Either archive another log in the same thread first, or clear the log. For more information on why the switch cannot be completed, see attached errors.
ORA-00263: there are no logs that need archiving for thread string: Cause: An attempt was made to manually archive the unarchived logs in this thread but no logs needed archiving.; Action: No action required.
ORA-00264: no recovery required: Cause: An attempt was made to perform media recovery on files that do not // need any type of recovery.; Action: Do not attempt to perform media recovery on the selected files. Check to see that the filenames were entered properly. If not, retry the command with the proper filenames.
ORA-00265: instance recovery required, cannot set ARCHIVELOG mode: Cause: The database either crashed or was shutdown with the ABORT option. Media recovery cannot be enabled because the online logs may not be sufficient to recover the current datafiles.; Action: Open the database and then enter the SHUTDOWN command with the NORMAL or IMMEDIATE option.
ORA-00266: name of archived log file needed: Cause: During media recovery, the name of an archived redo log file was requested, but no name was entered.; Action: Mount the correct redo log file and enter its name when it is requested.
ORA-00267: name of archived log file not needed: Cause: During media recovery, the name of an archived redo log file was entered, but no name was requested.; Action: Continue media recovery, but do not enter a new log name.
ORA-00268: specified log file does not exist 'string': Cause: The specified redo log file did not exist.; Action: Check the spelling and capitalization of the file name and retry the command.
ORA-00269: specified log file is part of thread string and not string: Cause: The given redo log file is not part of the given thread.; Action: Check that the thread of the redo log file matches the thread on the command line. If not, use a redo log file from the appropriate thread. Retry the command after correcting the error.
ORA-00270: error creating archive log string: Cause: An error was encountered while creating or opening the destination file for archiving.; Action: Check if the archive destination is valid and ensure that there is sufficient space on the destination device.
ORA-00271: there are no logs that need archiving: Cause: An attempt was made to archive the unarchived redo log files manually, but there are no files that need to be archived.; Action: No action required.
ORA-00272: error writing archive log string: Cause: An I/O error occurred while archiving a redo log file.; Action: Check whether the output device is still available and correct any device errors that may have occurred. Also, ensure that sufficient space for archiving is available on the output device.
ORA-00273: media recovery of direct load data that was not logged: Cause: A media recovery session encountered a table that was loaded by the direct loader without logging any redo information. Some or all of the blocks in this table are now marked as corrupt.; Action: The table must be dropped or truncated so that the corrupted blocks can be reused. If a more recent backup of the file is available, try to recover this file to eliminate this error.
ORA-00274: illegal recovery option string: Cause: An illegal option was specified for a recovery command.; Action: Correct the syntax and retry the command.
ORA-00275: media recovery has already been started: Cause: An attempt was made to start a second media recovery operation in the same session.; Action: Complete or cancel the first media recovery session or start another session to perform media recovery.
ORA-00276: CHANGE keyword specified but no change number given: Cause: The CHANGE keyword was specified on the command line, but no change number was given.; Action: Retry the command using a valid change number after the CHANGE keyword.
ORA-00277: illegal option to the UNTIL recovery flag string: Cause: Only CANCEL, CHANGE, CONSISTENT and TIME can be used with the UNTIL keyword.; Action: Correct the syntax.
ORA-00278: log file 'string' no longer needed for this recovery: Cause: The specified archived redo log file was not needed for the current recovery.; Action: No action required. The archived redo log file can be removed from the current location to conserve disk space. However, the archived redo log file may be required for another recovery session in the future.
ORA-00279: change string generated at string needed for thread string: Cause: The requested log is required to proceed with recovery.; Action: Please supply the requested log with "ALTER DATABASE RECOVER LOGFILE <file_name>" or cancel recovery with "ALTER DATABASE RECOVER CANCEL".
ORA-00280: change string for thread string is in sequence #string: Cause: This message helps to locate the redo log file with the specified change number requested by other messages.; Action: Use the information provided in this message to specify the required archived redo log files for other errors.
ORA-00281: media recovery may not be performed using dispatcher: Cause: An attempt was made to use a dispatcher process for media recovery. Memory requirements disallow this recovery method.; Action: Connect to the instance via a dedicated server process to perform media recovery.

ORA-00324: log file 'string' translated name 'string' too long, string characters exceeds string limit: Cause: the translated name for a log file is too long.; Action: Choose a untranslated name that yields a shorter translated name.
ORA-00325: archived log for thread string, wrong thread # string in header: Cause: The archived log is corrupted or for another thread. Can not use the log for applying redo.; Action: Find correct archived log.
ORA-00326: Log begins at change string. Earlier change string is needed.: Cause: The log supplied for recovery could not be used because it was generated after the log that was needed.; Action: Find the correct archived log. Use the earlier System Change Number (SCN) value from the message to look up the log in the V$ARCHIVED_LOG dynamic view or other log repository.
ORA-00327: log string of thread string, physical size string less than needed string: Cause: A log file has shrunk in size. This is likely to have been caused by operator or operating system error.; Action: Restore the log file from backup. If backup is not available, drop this log and re-create. If the database was shut down cleanly, no further action should be required; otherwise incomplete recovery may be required.
ORA-00328: Archived log ends at change string. Later change string is needed.: Cause: The log supplied for recovery could not be used because it was generated before the log that was needed.; Action: Find the correct archived log. Use the later System Change Number (SCN) value from the message to look up the log in the V$ARCHIVED_LOG dynamic view or other log repository.
ORA-00329: archived log begins at change string, need change string: Cause: The archived log is not the correct log. An earlier log is needed.; Action: Restore the correct log file.
ORA-00330: archived log ends at change string, need change string: Cause: The archived log is not the correct log. A later log is needed.; Action: Restore the correct log file.
ORA-00331: log version string incompatible with ORACLE version string: Cause: The log was written by incompatible version of Oracle.; Action: Recover the database with the compatible software, shut it down cleanly, then restart with current software.
ORA-00332: archived log is too small - may be incompletely archived: Cause: The log is smaller than the space allocated in it. May be the result of a shutdown abort while it was being written by the archiver.; Action: Get a complete version of this log and use it for recovery. There should either be an online version of it or a copy that was successfully archived.
ORA-00333: redo log read error block string count string: Cause: An IO error occurred while reading the log described in the accompanying error.; Action: Restore accessibility to file, or get another copy of the file.
ORA-00334: archived log: 'string': Cause: Reporting filename for details of another error; Action: See associated error messages
ORA-00335: online log string: No log with this number, log does not exist: Cause: Reporting filename for details of another error; Action: See associated error messages
ORA-00336: log file size string blocks is less than minimum string blocks: Cause: The log file size as specified in create database is too small.; Action: Increase the log file size.
ORA-00337: log file 'string' does not exist and no size specified: Cause: An attempt to add a log found neither an existing file nor a size for creating the file.; Action: Specify a size for the log file.
ORA-00338: log string of thread string is more recent than control file: Cause: The control file change sequence number in the log file is greater than the number in the control file. This implies that the wrong control file is being used. Note that repeatedly causing this error can make it stop happening without correcting the real problem. Every attempt to open the database will advance the control file change sequence number until it is great enough.; Action: Use the current control file or do backup control file recovery to make the control file current. Be sure to follow all restrictions on doing a backup control file recovery.
ORA-00339: archived log does not contain any redo: Cause: The archived log is not the correct log. It is a copy of a log file that has never been used for redo generation, or was an online log being prepared to be the current log.; Action: Restore the correct log file.
ORA-00340: IO error processing online log string of thread string: Cause: An IO error occurred on the named online log.; Action: Restore accessibility to file, or restore file from backup.
ORA-00341: log string of thread string, wrong log # string in header: Cause: The internal information in an online log file does not match the control file.; Action: Restore correct file or reset logs.
ORA-00342: archived log does not have expected resetlogs SCN string: Cause: Recovery was given a log that does not belong to current incarnation or one of the parent incarnation. There should be another log that contains the correct redo.; Action: Supply the correct log file.
ORA-00344: unable to re-create online log 'string': Cause: An I/O failure occurred when attempting to re-create an online as part of either ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS or ALTER DATABASE CLEAR LOGFILE command.; Action: Correct the file/device as indicated by accompanying errors.
ORA-00345: redo log write error block string count string: Cause: An IO error has occurred while writing the log; Action: Correct the cause of the error, and then restart the system. If the log is lost, apply media/incomplete recovery.
ORA-00346: log member marked as STALE and closed: Cause: A log file member was no longer complete.; Action: Correct the underlying problem by referring to the other error messages found with this one.
ORA-00347: log string of thread string, expected block size string doesn't match string: Cause: On header read the blocksize indicated in the control file did not match the blocksize contained in the log file.; Action: Restore correct file or reset logs.
ORA-00348: single-process redo failure. Must abort instance: Cause: A failure occurred during a critical portion of the log code during single process operation. This error does not occur during normal multi-process operation.; Action: Shutdown abort and warmstart the database.
ORA-00349: failure obtaining block size for 'string': Cause: The operating system was unable to determine the blocksize for the given filename.; Action: Consult the accompanying error message, and correct the device or specify another filename.
ORA-00350: log string of instance string (thread string) needs to be archived: Cause: The command cannot be done because the log has not been archived, and media recovery has been enabled.; Action: Archive the log or disable media recovery. If the command supports an UNARCHIVED option then it can be used. However this may result in making backups unuseable, and forcing the drop of some offline files.
ORA-00351: recover-to time invalid: Cause: The time specified in a recover-until statement must be after January 1st 1988.; Action: Specify a time after January 1st 1988.
ORA-00352: all logs for thread string need to be archived - cannot enable: Cause: Attempting to enable a thread with all logs needing to be archived, and media recovery has been enabled. There is no log that can be made the new current log for the thread.; Action: Archive a log for the thread or disable media recovery.
ORA-00353: log corruption near block string change string time string: Cause: Some type of redo log corruption has been discovered. This error describes the location of the corruption. Accompanying errors describe the type of corruption.; Action: Do recovery with a good version of the log or do incomplete recovery up to the indicated change or time.
ORA-00354: corrupt redo log block header: Cause: The block header on the redo block indicated by the accompanying error, is not reasonable.; Action: Do recovery with a good version of the log or do time based recovery up to the indicated time. If this happens when archiving, archiving of the problem log can be skipped by clearing the log with the UNARCHIVED option. This must be followed by a backup of every datafile to insure recoverability of the database.
ORA-00355: change numbers out of order: Cause: A change number found in the redo log is lower than a previously encountered change number. The log is corrupted in some way. The corruption may be at the earlier change or at this one.; Action: Do recovery with a good version of the log or do time based recovery up to the indicated time.
ORA-00356: inconsistent lengths in change description: Cause: A change record in the redo log contains lengths that do not add up to a consistent value. The log is corrupted in some way.; Action: Do recovery with a good version of the log or do time based recovery up to the indicated time.
ORA-00357: too many members specified for log file, the maximum is string: Cause: An add logfile or add logfile member command would result in a log with too many members. The number of members is set when the database is created.; Action: Use fewer log file members.
ORA-00358: Too many file members specified, the maximum is string: Cause: A create or alter statement specified too many members in a parenthesised file list.; Action: Specify a number of file members that is within the port-defined limit.
ORA-00359: logfile group string does not exist: Cause: An add logfile member or drop logfile request specified a logfile group number that does not exist.; Action: Check the configuration of the log files and reissue the command.
ORA-00360: not a logfile member: string: Cause: A filename was given to drop logfile member that is not a part of the database, or which is a data file.; Action: Supply a valid logfile member name.
ORA-00361: cannot remove last log member string for group string: Cause: An attempt has been made to remove the last member of a log file group.; Action: If desired, delete the entire log, by using DROP LOGFILE.
ORA-00362: member is required to form a valid logfile in group string: Cause: A request to drop a logfile member was denied because it would remove data required to form a complete logfile.; Action: If desired, delete the entire log (after archiving if required), by using DROP LOGFILE;
ORA-00363: log is not the archived version: Cause: The log given to recovery is a backup of the online version from the time it was the current log. The archived version of the log would not be marked as end of thread. This error can also be caused by failing to list the current log of an enabled thread in a CREATE CONTROLFILE command.; Action: Find the archived version of the log and supply its name. If this is media recovery immediately following a CREATE CONTROLFILE, be sure the current log for this thread was included.
ORA-00364: cannot write header to new log member: Cause: An i/o error occurred when attempting to write the header to a log member that is being added to an existing group.; Action: See accompanying errors. Fix problem or use another file.
ORA-00365: the specified log is not the correct next log: Cause: The specified log failed to pass checks to ensure it corresponds to the log that was just applied. This is probably the result of using a log that was generated against a cold backup image of the database.; Action: Find the log that was generated by this copy of the database and give that filename to recovery.
ORA-00366: log string of thread string, checksum error in the file header: Cause: The file header for the redo log contains a checksum that does not match the value calculated from the file header as read from disk. This means the file header is corrupted; Action: Find and install correct version of log or reset logs.
ORA-00367: checksum error in log file header: Cause: The file header for the redo log contains a checksum that does not match the value calculated from the file header as read from disk. This means the file header is corrupted; Action: Find the correct file and try again.
ORA-00368: checksum error in redo log block: Cause: The redo block indicated by the accompanying error, is not vaild. It has a checksum that does not match the block contents.; Action: Do recovery with a good version of the log or do time based recovery up to the indicated time. If this happens when archiving, archiving of the problem log can be skipped by clearing the log with the UNARCHIVED option. This must be followed by a backup of every datafile to insure recoverability of the database. Restore correct file or reset logs.
ORA-00369: Current log of thread string not useable and other log being cleared: Cause: Attempt to open thread failed because it is necessary to switch redo generation to another online log, but all the other logs are being cleared or need to be archived before they can be used.; Action: If the ALTER DATABASE CLEAR LOGFILE command is still active then wait for it to complete. Otherwise reissue the CLEAR command. If there are other online logs for the thread, that are not being cleared, then archive the logs.
ORA-00370: potential deadlock during kcbchange operation: Cause: Error code used internally by software. Should never be reported; Action: Treat as internal error. See error 600.
ORA-00371: not enough shared pool memory, should be at least string bytes: Cause: The SHARED_POOL_SIZE initialization parameter was too small.; Action: Increase the parameter value.
ORA-00372: file string cannot be modified at this time: Cause: attempting to modify the contents of a file that cannot be modified. The file is most likely part of a read only tablespace but may be in the process of going offline, or the database may be in the process of closing.; Action: check the status of the file and its tablespace
ORA-00373: online log version string incompatible with ORACLE version string: Cause: The online log was written by incompatible version of Oracle. Can occur when the log file was created by either a new or older version of Oracle.; Action: Recover the database with the compatible software, shut it down cleanly, then restart with current software.
ORA-00374: parameter db_block_size = string invalid; must be power of 2 in the range [string..string]: Cause: invalid value for db_block_size parameter; Action: adjust parameter and restart
ORA-00376: file string cannot be read at this time: Cause: attempting to read from a file that is not readable. Most likely the file is offline.; Action: Check the state of the file. Bring it online
ORA-00377: Frequent backups of file string causing write operation to stall: Cause: Backups are occurring too frequently on this file. Each time a new backup is started for a file, any writes which have been previously issued (but not completed) have to be re-issued. If hot backups are started very, very frequently, it is possible that some writes will be re-issued repeatedly and never complete.; Action: Increase the interval between begin hot-backup commands for this file.
ORA-00378: buffer pools cannot be created as specified: Cause: Either the number of buffers or the number of lru latches is too small to satisfy the specified buffer pool configuration.; Action: Either increase the number of buffers and/or number of lru latches or configure smaller buffer pools.
ORA-00379: no free buffers available in buffer pool string for block size stringK: Cause: All buffers in the specified buffer pool for the specified block size are in use and no free buffers are available.; Action: Increase the number of buffers in the specified pool for the specified block size
ORA-00380: cannot specify db_stringk_cache_size since stringK is the standard block size: Cause: User specified the parameter db_nk_cache_size (where n is one of 2,4,8,16,32), while the standard block size for this database is equal to n Kbytes. This is illegal.; Action: Specify the standard block size cache using db_cache_size (DEFAULT pool) (and db_recycle_cache_size, db_keep_cache_size if additional buffer pools are required). Do NOT use the corresponding db_nk_cache_size parameter for the standard block size.
ORA-00381: cannot use both new and old parameters for buffer cache size specification: Cause: User specified one or more of { db_cache_size , db_recycle_cache_size, db_keep_cache_size, db_nk_cache_size (where n is one of 2,4,8,16,32), db_cache_advice } AND one or more of { db_block_buffers, buffer_pool_keep , buffer_pool_recycle }. This is illegal.; Action: Use EITHER the old (pre-Oracle_8.2) parameters OR the new ones. Don't specify both. If old size parameters are specified in the parameter file, you may want to replace them with new parameters since the new parameters can be modified dynamically and allow you to configure additional caches for additional block sizes. Cache advisory can only be enabled with the new cache parameters.
ORA-00382: string not a valid block size, valid range [string..string]: Cause: User specified a value for db_nk_cache_size where n is one of {2, 4, 8, 16, 32}, but nk is not a valid block size for this platform.; Action: Remove corresponding parameter from the "init.ora" file and restart the instance.
ORA-00383: DEFAULT cache for blocksize string cannot be reduced to zero: Cause: User attempted to reduce db_cache_size to zero, or attempted to to reduce db_nK_cache_size to zero while there were still online tablespaces with blocksize nK. Note that since the SYSTEM tablespace cannot be taken offline, it is always illegal to set db_cache_size to zero.; Action: Offline any tablespaces with the corresponding blocksize and then perform the operation again.
ORA-00384: Insufficient memory to grow cache: Cause: The system could not allocate sufficient memory to grow the cache to the specified size.; Action: Attempt a smaller increase in the value of the parameter.
ORA-00388: dependent redo for buffers is lost: Cause: The instance contained buffers that had non-durable changes and depended on redo in another thread that was lost because of that thread crash. No data are lost because changes to such buffers cannot be commited while they are non-durable.; Action: Restart the instance.
ORA-00390: log string of thread string is being cleared, cannot become current log: Cause: An attempt to switch to a new online log for the redo thread failed because no reusable log could be found. This log is being cleared and will be useable when the clearing completes. The command that began the clearing may have terminated without completing the clearing.; Action: If the clear command is still executing then wait for its completion. If it terminated then reissue the clear command, or drop the log.
ORA-00391: All threads must switch to new log format at the same time: Cause: An attempt to switch the current log of a single thread is not allowed because the compatiblity requirements force a new log format version number. When changing log formats, all threads must switch to the new format at the same time.; Action: Open the database to cause the coordinated log switch. If that is not possible then return to the same software version and compatibility setting last used to open the database.
ORA-00392: log string of thread string is being cleared, operation not allowed: Cause: An operation encountered this online log in the middle of being cleared. The command that began the clearing may have terminated without completing the clearing.; Action: If the clear command is still executing then wait for its completion. If it terminated then reissue the clear command, or drop the log.
ORA-00393: log string of thread string is needed for recovery of offline datafiles: Cause: Log cannot be cleared because the redo in it is needed to recover offline datafiles. It has not been archived so there is no other copy available. If the log is cleared the tablespaces containing the files will have to be dropped.; Action: Archive the log then repeat the clear command. If archiving is not possible, and dropping the tablespaces is acceptible, then add the clause UNRECOVERABLE DATAFILE at the end of the clear command.
ORA-00394: online log reused while attempting to archive it: Cause: It has been detected that an online log that was being archived was reused.; Action: No action is required because the log file cannot be archived since it has been overwritten.
ORA-00395: online logs for the clone database must be renamed: Cause: A clone database open forces logfile renaming to avoid overwriting the primary logfiles; Action: Rename the logfiles manually or using the log_file_name_convert initialization parameter
ORA-00396: error string required fallback to single-pass recovery: Cause: The indicated error caused two-pass instance or crash recovery to fail. Recovery was retried with an alternate (slower) method to avoid the error.; Action: Correct the cause of the indicated error (also recorded) so that future instance or crash recovery can succeed with the two-pass algorithm. This usually requires making more main memory available to the recovery process.
ORA-00397: instance recovery process terminated with error: Cause: The foreground process doing instance recovery died.; Action: Check the foreground trace file for the cause of recovery failure.
ORA-00398: abort thread recovery due to reconfiguration: Cause: Global enqueue service reconfiguration occurred during instance/crash recovery.; Action: This is used internally, no action is required.
ORA-00399: corrupt change description in redo log: Cause: A change vector in the redo log failed validation checks.; Action: Do recovery with a good version of the log or do time based recovery up to the indicated time.
ORA-00400: invalid release value string for parameter string: Cause: The release level given for the specified init parameter is invalid.; Action: Correct the parameter value in the parameter file and retry.
ORA-00401: the value for parameter string is not supported by this release: Cause: The value specified cannot be supported by this release of the software.; Action: Choose an appropriate value, or remove the parameter value to use the default value.
ORA-00402: database changes by release string cannot be used by release string: Cause: Changes have been made to the database that require a newer software release or that violate the compatibility parameters.; Action: Use a version of the software that can understand the changes or relax the compatibility requirements in the init file.
ORA-00403: string (string) is not the same as other instances (string): Cause: Another instance has set the compatible or compatible no recovery parameters differently than this instance.; Action: Change the parameters of the current instance to match other instances already running.
ORA-00404: Convert file not found: 'string': Cause: The file used for converting the database from V7 to V8 could not be found.; Action: Verify that the migration process has been started on this database and that the convert filename is accessable.
ORA-00405: compatibility type "string": Cause: Reporting a type associated with another error.; Action: See accompanying error
ORA-00406: COMPATIBLE parameter needs to be string or greater: Cause: The COMPATIBLE initialization parameter is not high enough to allow the operation. Allowing the command would make the database incompatible with the release specified by the current COMPATIBLE parameter.; Action: Shutdown and startup with a higher compatibility setting.
ORA-00407: rolling upgrade from release string.string to string.string is not allowed: Cause: Another instance executing software at a different point release already has the database mounted.; Action: Shutdown all instances then startup with the new software.
ORA-00408: parameter string is set to TRUE: Cause: Reporting the parameter that resulted in the compatibility error.; Action: Shutdown and startup with a higher compatibility setting.
ORA-00409: COMPATIBLE needs to be string or higher to use AUTO SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT: Cause: This is due to migrating from an older release of Oracle with tablespaces created using AUTO SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT. To open the database, the COMPATIBLE parameter needs to be set to the specified value.; Action: Shutdown and startup with the specified compatibility setting.
ORA-00421: failure in creating the required number of sessions for string processes: Cause: The required number of sessions for the PROCESSES parameter was greater than the maximum supported value.; Action: Decrease the required number of processes and start the instance.
