I am getting the following message during some overnight batch processing.

I have read some relevant articles that point to using ulimit to increase the allowed file size to unlimited. I checked and it is already set to unlimited. I also checked both the Hard and Soft settings using ulimit. They are both set to "unlimited".

update log_detail

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01116: error in opening database file 12
ORA-01110: data file 12: '/oracle/oradata/PRD/LEGACY_T01.dbf'
ORA-27092: skgfofi: size of file exceeds file size limit of the process
Additional information: 262143
Additional information: 640001

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Steve

Hi,

Increase the ulimit of your environment and then shutdown
and restart the database. You might also need to set some
kernel parameters to allow you to specify larger ulimit
values.

Here is Oracle's description of the error:

ORA-27092: skgfofi: size of file exceeds file size limit of the
process

Cause: an attempt was made to open a file that exceeds
the process's file size limit (ulimit), additional information
shows the current limit (logical blocks) and the size of the
file (logical blocks)

Action: increase the processes file size limit (ulimit) and
retry

Best regards.

Frank

ulimit already reports that the filesize is unlimited. (Both hard and soft parameters).

It has been like that for a while.

NB. I checked ulimit as the user that starts/stops oracle.

Hi guys,
i am really interested in the solution of the problem if you have found any. I get the same error during loading a table with sqlldr. The strange thing is that i can load without problems in one instance(ORA_SID_1) but i can't load the same file on the other one(ORA_SID_2) executing the sqlldr from the same unix user and machine. I have unlimited file size limits(soft and hard) on the unix user "oracle" and on the unix user from where i execute the sqlldr. I want to add that the two files initORA_SID_1.ora and initORA_SID_2.ora are identical.

thanks in advance,
ducasio

I searched before on the forum per a possible solution of the problem and i didn't find one, except this thread.
As i described previously, i have unimited file size limits(soft and hard) for the unix user. And the strange thing is that from the same unix(aix) user i can load to one instance but not to the other one.
The file i want to load is about 800Mb.

>> i have unimited file size limits(soft and hard) for the unix user
Please prove that.
Please prove that the environment settings are same for instances.
Post the relevant contents of /etc/security/limits

for the user from where i execute loader:

# ulimit -a
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) 10000000
data(kbytes) unlimited
stack(kbytes) unlimited
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) 2097151
nofiles(descriptors) 2000

ulimit -s
unlimited

for the user oracle:

# ulimit -a
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) unlimited
stack(kbytes) unlimited
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) 2097151
nofiles(descriptors) 2000

So any suggestions? File to load are are from 300Mb to 800Mb.

How big the files are that you are trying to load is irrelevant, you most likely run into an error because of something else. But You never told us which error exactly.

Unfortunately my crystal ball is in the repair shop this week, so you will have to post the exact error you get.
