Oracle 10G : ORA 07445 - Memory Problem

ORA-07445: exception encountered: core dump  

Oracle defines the ORA-7445 as an unhandled exception error that could be result of an Oracle bug. The ORA-7445 errors depend on the version of the Oracle software, OS version.

For more details about the error, you need to check the trace files generated. The ORA-7445 exception generates a trace file located under the CORE_DUMP_DEST directory for oracle versions prior to 11g and under the ADR Home / cdump (Automatic Diagnostic Repository) for 11g versions.



Workaround:

From Oracle trace file, It looks like that the reason of problem is memory issue. So, I decided to increase SGA and PGA size .After making the changes, the ORA-07445 errors are gone. The database is running fine since one week now without problems.
