ORA-00031

Session marked for termination

Cause

The session specified in an ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command cannot be terminated immediately (because it is rolling back or blocked on a network operation), but it has been marked for termination. This means it will be terminated as soon as possible after its current uninterruptible operation is done.


Action

No action is required for the session to be terminated. However, further execution of the ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command on this session may cause the session to be terminated sooner.
