1. An ORA-600 ora error may or may not be displayed on the screen. Therefore, screen output should not be relied on for capturing information on this error. Information on ORA-600 errors are found in the database alert and trace files. We recommend that you check these files frequently for database errors. (See the Alert and Trace Files section for more information.)

2. Each ORA-600 ora error comes with a list o***uments They usually enclosed in square brackets and follow the error on the same line for example:

ORA-00600 [14000][51202][1][51200][][]

Each argument has a specific meaning which can only be interpreted by an Oracle support analyst. The arguments may also change meaning from version to version therefore customers are not advised to memorize them.

3. Every occurrence of an ORA-600 should be reported to Oracle Support. Unlike other errors, you can not find help text for these errors. Only Oracle technical support should diagnose and take actions to prevent or resolve damage to the database.

4. Each ORA-600 error generates a database trace file.
