Hi,

i wonder if anyone out there have this before. i suspect i've got a
corrupted database and intend to do a db restore. any suggestion will be
greatly appreciated.

situation: we had some glitches with adsm server but we thought we fixed
it and it was working until last night. this morning i came in and found i
didn't get a report and every process and session just seemed to hang
there. i did some cancels but they didn't go away like they normally do. i
did a "q actlog" no respond it just hung. at this stage i could not get
back to "adsm>" prompt so i did a shutdown server the hard way: Ctrl ^C.
and it would not start up again. :(
