    Kill session on specific node of RAC

    I am trying to kill session on RAC 10g Oracle on the specific instance
    and for some reason it fails. I am on the node 2.

    SQL> ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION '119, 35553, @1';
    ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION '119, 35553, @1'
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00026: missing or invalid session ID

    If I just run
    SQL> ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION '119, 35553'
    2 ;
    ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION '119, 35553'
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00030: User session ID does not exist.
    Which is expected .

    According to docs:
    To terminate sessions, follow these steps:

    *

    Query the value of the INST_ID column in the GV$SESSION dynamic performance view to identify which session to terminate
    *

    Issue the ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION and specify the session index number (SID) and serial number of a session that you identified with the GV$SESSION dynamic performance view.

    KILL SESSION 'integer1, integer2[, @integer3]'

    o

    For integer1, specify the value of the SID column.
    o

    For integer2, specify the value of the SERIAL# column.
    o

    For the optional integer3, specify the ID of the instance where the session to be killed exists. You can find the instance ID by querying the GV$ tables.

    To use this statement, your instance must have the database open, and your session and the session to be terminated must be on the same instance unless you specify integer3.
    Thanks
