set cursor_sharing parameter to EXACT but still see the error on the application.
Hi, Per Bug 7154579 customer, to solve ORA-1008,set cursor_sharing parameter to EXACT but still see the error on the application.
One of the instance in 4 node RAC USED to have cursor_sharing=similar, and the rest set to exact. Customer changed it to 'exact' longtime back. but still found some background process using cursor_sharing=similar ( and still see the error 1008) .
After the bounce of the above-mentioned node, but absent a clean restart of the whole RAC database, the customer still experienced the 1008 error. Session level is showing,INSTEAD OF "SIMILAR" for the background processes,the entries of "uninitialized". See query below:
