strange locking question
AlleTSep 14 2011 — edited Sep 16 2011oracle database 10.2.0.4 RAC on RHEL 5
I have a session which waits on TX row lock contention for hours but there are no other sessions blocking.
If I look at V$LOCK the column BLOCK is 0 for that session.
But why the session is stuck on that wait event?
If I query look at the session in OEM I find that the blocking session has the same SID/SERIAL NUMBER as the session I am tuning, so it seems the session is blocking itself.
Anyone can explain such a behavior???
