How To fix: PDB in restricted

Alex written 2 years ago    3

This is a weird case we had for a Customer where DB/PDB’s were running fine and after a restart,
To search, type and hit en 
one of the PDB’s went to restricted YES.
We don’t know why it went to restricted mode because there hasn’t been a patching activity for a
while and DB had few restarts in the past with no issues. Recent Posts
We did not manage to know how this happened, but this is how we fixed. DBCA create DB fails with: ORA-15001:
