Resolution

 
The Veritas High Availability Agent for Oracle handles Oracle errors during detailed monitoring. The agent classifies Oracle errors according to their severity and associates predefined actions with each error code. The agent includes a reference file called oraerror.dat which lists Oracle errors and the action to be taken when the error is encountered.
 
The file stores information in the following format:
 
Oracle_error_string:action_to_be_taken
 
Example:
 
01035:WARN
01034:FAILOVER
 
Please refer to the Veritas High Availability Agent for Oracle Installation and Configuration Guide for more details on the list of Actions.
 
Changes made to /opt/VRTSagents/ha/bin/Oracle/oraerror.dat do not come into effect during detail monitoring of VCS Oracle resources. The VCS Oracleagent parses the oraerror.dat file during the agent startup. For any changes to come into effect, the Oracle agent needs to be restarted after the oraerror.datfile is modified.
 
Freeze the service group(s) and restart Oracle agent for the changes to come into effect.
