 105181-19 fixes the problem...

 It's an Oracle setting. If you're not a DBA, don't go messing with DBs...

There have been several posts about the patch 105181-17, the kernel patch,

My Question

Hi,

    
    I would like to hear from Sun managers on the most stable Kernel patches
 you are using for Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 2.5.1

     Bug Id 4222164 mentions about async_write=false.
 What exactly is this and how do I set this.

 Regards
