I've been working with Oracle 9i for about 8 months on windows XP (the same
problem occurs with WIN2000). However, I noticed that the latest release has
some software that "hits the disk" about every 1-2 seconds! Anyway, this is
a real problem on my laptop, because it can NEVER go into a low-battery-mode
since the disk sub-system is always active. Does anyone know how to shut
this 1-2 second disk hit (evdently a disk-write from what I can tell)? I've
spent about 16 hours
trying to trace which processes which are hitting-the-disk! I've almost
identified it, but when I shut down those processes, I still get the
disk-hits! This is BAD NEWS for laptop users that have to work off battery.
Anyway, I hope ORACLE will fix this problem soon!
Thank you in advance for your advise! 2 2972

I have both 8i and 9i on my Dell laptop (Win2K). I generally run only
one of the databases on as needed basis. Other then Oracle utilizing
memory... I have not seen any *unusual* I/O. It must be some process
in your particular database (or some other OS process) that is running
every few seconds and doing some disk I/O.

Sorry Larry,
- posting a message 3 times won't help - The Oracle database is not certified on XP (client only) - A database will never allow your disk/computer to go to standby.
Stop the database if you want the laptop to go to standby - and Oracle will not confirm or fix problems that you encounter on non-certified operating systems.
Good luck, Sander
I have manually put my laptop in standby while database is running... no
issues. Database is available when the laptop is brought online.
