NOTE: Another very similar symptom can manifest in an Oracle database when you do large bulk imports from Director discoveries: This is a known issue with Oracle databases, and is documented in the Oracle bug database as bug 11665791. We post this information here for your information only. It manifests on Big Endian Hardware running mainly on Solaris Sparc, and AIX power servers. All inquires as to the status of this bug should be directed to Oracle, via your Oracle database administrator.
