Unable to disable sql trace

Hi,

I am running a two node Oracle 10.2.0.4 RAC database on AIX 5.3.  Recently I noticed that the database keeps generating trace files in the udump directory on both nodes as the filesystem starting filling up.  However, I don't remember turning on trace on the database (there are several DBAs and anyone could've done it and forgotten about it).  The problem is I am not able to disable the trace.  Querying DBA_ENABLED_TRACES lists the service names/modules being traced.  Presumably the trace was enabled using DBMS_MONITOR.SERV_MOD_ACT_TRACE_ENABLE or dbms_monitor.session_trace_enable. However, I've tried several methods to turn off the trace without success.

Howdy, Stranger!
