再议RAC Brain Split脑裂

这2天在面试DBA Candidate的时候,我问到Oracle RAC中Brain Split脑裂决议的一些概念, 几乎所有的Candidate都告诉我当”只有2个节点的时候,投票算法就失效了,会让2个节点去抢占Quorum Disk,最先获得的节点将活下来” 。 我们姑且把这套理论叫做” 抢占论”。

“抢占论”的具体观点可能与下面这一段文字大同小异:

 

“在集群中,节点间通过某种机制(心跳)了解彼此的健康状态,以确保各节点协调工作。 假设只有”心跳”出现问题, 各个节点还在正常运行, 这时,每个节点都认为其他的节点宕机了, 自己是整个集群环境中的”唯一建在者”,自己应该获得整个集群的”控制权”。 在集群环境中,存储设备都是共享的, 这就意味着数据灾难, 这种情况就是”脑裂”
解决这个问题的通常办法是使用投票算法(Quorum Algorithm). 它的算法机理如下:

观点1:

集群中各个节点需要心跳机制来通报彼此的”健康状态”,假设每收到一个节点的”通报”代表一票。对于三个节点的集群,正常运行时,每个节点都会有3票。 当结点A心跳出现故障但节点A还在运行,这时整个集群就会分裂成2个小的partition。 节点A是一个,剩下的2个是一个。 这是必须剔除一个partition才能保障集群的健康运行。 对于有3个节点的集群, A 心跳出现问题后, B 和 C 是一个partion,有2票, A只有1票。 按照投票算法, B 和C 组成的集群获得控制权, A 被剔除。

 

 

观点2:

如果只有2个节点,投票算法就失效了。 因为每个节点上都只有1票。 这时就需要引入第三个设备:Quorum Device. Quorum Device 通常采用饿是共享磁盘,这个磁盘也叫作Quorum disk。 这个Quorum Disk 也代表一票。 当2个结点的心跳出现问题时, 2个节点同时去争取Quorum Disk 这一票, 最早到达的请求被最先满足。 故最先获得Quorum Disk的节点就获得2票。另一个节点就会被剔除。

 

 

以上这段文字描述中观点1 与我在<Oracle RAC Brain Split Resolution> 一文中提出的看法其实是类似的。  这里再列出我的描述:

在脑裂检查阶段Reconfig Manager会找出那些没有Network Heartbeat而有Disk Heartbeat的节点,并通过Network Heartbeat(如果可能的话)和Disk Heartbeat的信息来计算所有竞争子集群(subcluster)内的节点数目,并依据以下2种因素决定哪个子集群应当存活下去:

  1. 拥有最多节点数目的子集群(Sub-cluster with largest number of Nodes)
  2. 若子集群内数目相等则为拥有最低节点号的子集群(Sub-cluster with lowest node number),举例来说在一个2节点的RAC环境中总是1号节点会获胜。

补充:关于 我引入的子集群的概念的介绍:

“在解决脑裂的场景中,NM还会监控voting disk以了解其他的竞争子集群(subclusters)。关于子集群我们有必要介绍一下,试想我们的环境中存在大量的节点,以Oracle官方构建过的128个节点的环境为我们的想象空间,当网络故障发生时存在多种的可能性,一种可能性是全局的网络失败,即128个节点中每个节点都不能互相发生网络心跳,此时会产生多达128个的信息”孤岛”子集群。另一种可能性是局部的网络失败,128个节点中被分成多个部分,每个部分中包含多于一个的节点,这些部分就可以被称作子集群(subclusters)。当出现网络故障时子集群内部的多个节点仍能互相通信传输投票信息(vote mesg),但子集群或者孤岛节点之间已经无法通过常规的Interconnect网络交流了,这个时候NM Reconfiguration就需要用到voting disk投票磁盘。”

 

争议主要体现在 , “抢占论” 认为当 只有2个节点时 是通过抢占votedisk 的结果来决定具体哪个节点存活下来同时” 抢占论”没有介绍 当存在多个相同节点数目的子集群情况下的结论(譬如4节点的RAC , 1、2节点组成一个子集群,3、4节点组成一个子集群), 若按照2节点时的做法那么依然是通过子集群间抢占votedisk来决定。

 

我个人认为这种说法(“抢占论”)是错误的,不管是具体脑裂时的CRS关键进程css的日志,还是Oracle官方的内部文档都可以说明该问题。

 

我们来看10.2 RAC中的一个场景,假设集群中共有3个节点,其中1号实例没有被启动,集群中只有2个活动节点(active node),发生2号节点的网络失败的故障,因2号节点的member number较小故其通过voting disk向3号节点发起驱逐,具体日志如下:

观察红色部分的日志 ,明确显示了NM(Node Monitor)节点监控服务检查votedisk信息,并计算出了smaller cluster size

以下为2号节点的ocssd.log日志

[    CSSD]2011-04-23 17:42:32.022 [3032460176] >
TRACE: clssnmCheckDskInfo: node 3, vrh3, state 5 with leader 3
has smaller cluster size 1; my cluster size 1 with leader 2

检查voting disk后发现子集群3为最小"子集群"(3号节点的node number较2号大);2号节点为最大子集群

发起对3号节点的驱逐和shutdown request

以下为3号节点的ocssd.log日志:

my node(3), Leader(3), Size(1) VS Node(2), Leader(2), Size(1)

读取voting disk后发现kill block,为避免split brain,自我aborting!

 

 

此外Metalink 上一些官方Note 也明确说明了我以上的观点 , 摘录部分内容如下:

 

1.
When interconnect breaks – keeps the largest cluster possible up, other nodes will be evicted, in 2 node cluster lowest number node remains.
 

2.
Node eviction: pick a cluster node as victim to reboot.Always keep the largest cluster possible up, evicted other nodes two nodes: keep the lowest number node up and evict other

 

实际上有部分Vendor Unix Clusterware集群软件的脑裂可能如确实是以谁先获得 “Quorum disk”为决定因素, 但是自10g 推出的Oracle 自己的Real Application Cluster(RAC) 的clusterware 或者说 CRS( cluster ready services) 在Brain Split Resolution时并非如此,在这方面类推并不能帮助我们找出正确的结论。

 

 

7月最新发布11.2.0.1.2 Patch set update

7月13日,11g release 2 的第二个补丁集更新发布了;9i的最终版本为9.2.0.8,10g上10.2.0.5很有可能成为最终版本,我们预期今后(11g,12g)中Patch set数量会有效减少,而patch set update数量可能大幅增加;这样的更新形式可以为Oracle Database提升一定的软件形象。可以猜想11gr2的最终版本号可能是11.2.0.2/3.x。

2 Patch Installation and Deinstallation

This section includes the following sections:

2.1 Platforms for PSU 11.2.0.1.2

For a list of platforms that are supported in this Patch Set Update, see My Oracle Support Note 1060989.1 Critical Patch Update July 2010 Patch Availability Document for Oracle Products.

2.2 OPatch Utility Information

You must use the OPatch utility version 11.2.0.1.0 or later to apply this patch. Oracle recommends that you use the latest released OPatch 11.2, which is available for download from My Oracle Support patch 6880880 by selecting the 11.2.0.0.0 release.

For information about OPatch documentation, including any known issues, see My Oracle Support Note 293369.1 OPatch documentation list.

2.3 Patch Installation

These instructions are for all Oracle Database installations.

2.3.1 Patch Pre-Installation Instructions

Before you install PSU 11.2.0.1.2, perform the following actions to check the environment and to detect and resolve any one-off patch conflicts.

2.3.1.1 Environments with ASM

If you are installing the PSU to an environment that has Automatic Storage Management (ASM), note the following:

  • For Linux x86 and Linux x86-64 platforms, install either (A) the bug fix for 8898852 and the Database PSU patch 9654983, or (B) the Grid Infrastructure PSU patch 9343627.
  • For all other platforms, no action is required. The fix for 8898852 was included in the base 11.2.0.1.0 release.

2.3.1.2 Environment Checks
  1. Ensure that the $PATH definition has the following executables: make, ar, ld, and nm.The location of these executables depends on your operating system. On many operating systems, they are located in /usr/ccs/bin, in which case you can set your PATH definition as follows:
    export PATH=$PATH:/usr/ccs/bin
    

2.3.1.3 One-off Patch Conflict Detection and Resolution

For an introduction to the PSU one-off patch concepts, see “Patch Set Updates Patch Conflict Resolution” in My Oracle Support Note 854428.1 Patch Set Updates for Oracle Products.

The fastest and easiest way to determine whether you have one-off patches in the Oracle home that conflict with the PSU, and to get the necessary conflict resolution patches, is to use the Patch Recommendations and Patch Plans features on the Patches & Updates tab in My Oracle Support. These features work in conjunction with the My Oracle Support Configuration Manager. Recorded training sessions on these features can be found in Note 603505.1.

However, if you are not using My Oracle Support Patch Plans, follow these steps:

  1. Determine whether any currently installed one-off patches conflict with the PSU patch as follows:
    unzip p9654983_11201_<platform>.zip
    opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir ./9654983
    
  2. The report will indicate the patches that conflict with PSU 9654983 and the patches for which PSU 9654983 is a superset.Note that Oracle proactively provides PSU 11.2.0.1.2 one-off patches for common conflicts.
  3. Use My Oracle Support Note 1061295.1 Patch Set Updates – One-off Patch Conflict Resolution to determine, for each conflicting patch, whether a conflict resolution patch is already available, and if you need to request a new conflict resolution patch or if the conflict may be ignored.
  4. When all the one-off patches that you have requested are available at My Oracle Support, proceed with Section 2.3.2, “Patch Installation Instructions”.

2.3.2 Patch Installation Instructions

Follow these steps:

  1. If you are using a Data Guard Physical Standby database, you must first install this patch on the primary database before installing the patch on the physical standby database. It is not supported to install this patch on the physical standby database before installing the patch on the primary database. For more information, see My Oracle Support Note 278641.1.
  2. Do one of the following, depending on whether this is a RAC environment:
    • If this is a RAC environment, choose one of the patch installation methods provided by OPatch (rolling, all node, or minimum downtime), and shutdown instances and listeners as appropriate for the installation method selected.This PSU patch is rolling RAC installable. Refer to My Oracle Support Note 244241.1 Rolling Patch – OPatch Support for RAC.
    • If this is not a RAC environment, shut down all instances and listeners associated with the Oracle home that you are updating. For more information, see Oracle Database Administrator’s Guide.
  3. Set your current directory to the directory where the patch is located and then run the OPatch utility by entering the following commands:
    unzip p9654983_11201_<platform>.zip
    cd 9654983
    opatch apply
    
  4. If there are errors, refer to Section 3, “Known Issues”.

2.3.3 Patch Post-Installation Instructions

After installing the patch, perform the following actions:

  1. Apply conflict resolution patches as explained in Section 2.3.3.1.
  2. Load modified SQL files into the database, as explained in Section 2.3.3.2.

2.3.3.1 Applying Conflict Resolution Patches

Apply the patch conflict resolution one-off patches that were determined to be needed when you performed the steps in Section 2.3.1.3, “One-off Patch Conflict Detection and Resolution”.

2.3.3.2 Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database

The following steps load modified SQL files into the database. For a RAC environment, perform these steps on only one node.

  1. For each database instance running on the Oracle home being patched, connect to the database using SQL*Plus. Connect as SYSDBA and run the catbundle.sql script as follows:
    cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin
    sqlplus /nolog
    SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
    SQL> STARTUP
    SQL> @catbundle.sql psu apply
    SQL> QUIT
    

    The catbundle.sql execution is reflected in the dba_registry_history view by a row associated with bundle series PSU.

    For information about the catbundle.sql script, see My Oracle Support Note 605795.1 Introduction to Oracle Database catbundle.sql.

  2. Check the following log files in $ORACLE_HOME/cfgtoollogs/catbundle for any errors:
    catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_APPLY_<TIMESTAMP>.log
    catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_GENERATE_<TIMESTAMP>.log
    

    where TIMESTAMP is of the form YYYYMMMDD_HH_MM_SS. If there are errors, refer to Section 3, “Known Issues”.

2.3.4 Patch Post-Installation Instructions for Databases Created or Upgraded after Installation of PSU 11.2.0.1.2 in the Oracle Home

These instructions are for a database that is created or upgraded after the installation of PSU 11.2.0.1.2.

You must execute the steps in Section 2.3.3.2, “Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database” for any new database only if it was created by any of the following methods:

  • Using DBCA (Database Configuration Assistant) to select a sample database (General, Data Warehouse, Transaction Processing)
  • Using a script that was created by DBCA that creates a database from a sample database

2.4 Patch Deinstallation

These instructions apply if you need to deinstall the patch.

2.4.1 Patch Deinstallation Instructions for a Non-RAC Environment

Follow these steps:

  1. Verify that an $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_ROLLBACK.sql file exists for each database associated with this ORACLE_HOME. If this is not the case, you must execute the steps in Section 2.3.3.2, “Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database” against the database before deinstalling the PSU.
  2. Shut down all instances and listeners associated with the Oracle home that you are updating. For more information, see Oracle Database Administrator’s Guide.
  3. Run the OPatch utility specifying the rollback argument as follows.
    opatch rollback -id 9654983
    
  4. If there are errors, refer to Section 3, “Known Issues”.

2.4.2 Patch Post-Deinstallation Instructions for a Non-RAC Environment

Follow these steps:

  1. Start all database instances running from the Oracle home. (For more information, see Oracle Database Administrator’s Guide.)
  2. For each database instance running out of the ORACLE_HOME, connect to the database using SQL*Plus as SYSDBA and run the rollback script as follows:
    cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin
    sqlplus /nolog
    SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
    SQL> STARTUP
    SQL> @catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_ROLLBACK.sql
    SQL> QUIT
    

    In a RAC environment, the name of the rollback script will have the format catbundle_PSU_<database SID PREFIX>_ROLLBACK.sql.

  3. Check the log file for any errors. The log file is found in $ORACLE_HOME/cfgtoollogs/catbundle and is named catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_ROLLBACK_<TIMESTAMP>.log where TIMESTAMP is of the form YYYYMMMDD_HH_MM_SS. If there are errors, refer to Section 3, “Known Issues”.

2.4.3 Patch Deinstallation Instructions for a RAC Environment

Follow these steps for each node in the cluster, one node at a time:

  1. Shut down the instance on the node.
  2. Run the OPatch utility specifying the rollback argument as follows.
    opatch rollback -id 9654983
    

    If there are errors, refer to Section 3, “Known Issues”.

  3. Start the instance on the node as follows:
    srvctl start instance
    

2.4.4 Patch Post-Deinstallation Instructions for a RAC Environment

Follow the instructions listed in Section Section 2.4.2, “Patch Post-Deinstallation Instructions for a Non-RAC Environment” only on the node for which the steps in Section 2.3.3.2, “Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database” were executed during the patch application.

All other instances can be started and accessed as usual while you are executing the deinstallation steps.

ocfs certification with 11gr2 rac

We are planning to implement 11gR2 RAC on OCFS2 file system. We are going to have ocr files,voting disk files,database files and flash recovery area files on OCFS2 file system.
Generic Note
————————
ocfs2 is certified for oracle 11gr2 but oracle recommends using asm.
please see this for more information http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e10812/storage.htm#CWLIN262
3.1.3 Supported Storage Options
The following table shows the storage options supported for storing Oracle Clusterware and Oracle RAC files.

Note:

For information about OCFS2, refer to the following Web site:

* Corruption (Logical)
* ORA-600 [kddummy_blkchk]

* Direct Path Operations
* ASSM Space Management (Bitmap Managed Segments)

Description

Block corruption / ORA-600 [kddummy_blkchk][file#] [block#] [18038]
can occur on a segment which has been direct loaded.

(The corruption shows as a PAGETABLE SEGMENT HEADER
having blocks in the “Auxillary Map” outside of the “Extent Map”
range)

Note:
This bug was previously incorrectly listed as fixed in 10.2.0.4

Further details on this issue can be found in Note:580561.1
ORA-600 [kddummy_blkchk][][][18038] during extent operations like TRUNCATE on ASSM tablespaces [ID 580561.1]

Applies to:
Oracle Server – Enterprise Edition – Version: 9.2.0.8 to 10.2.0.4
Information in this document applies to any platform.
Description

This alert describes the problem in Bug 5386204 / Note 5386204.8.

Block corruption with error ORA-600 [kddummy_blkchk] [file#] [block#] [18038]
may be reported during a DROP/TRUNCATE

The corruption shows as a PAGETABLE SEGMENT HEADER having blocks in the
“Auxillary Map” outside of the “Extent Map” range.

The same operation terminated without any error in previous RDBMS versions
like Oracle9i.

Likelihood of Occurrence

The object is populated by direct path operations such as SQL*Loader using DIRECT=Y for example.
The object is stored in a Locally Managed Tablespace (LMT) that is using ASSM (dba_tablespaces.segment_space_management=’AUTO’).
Bug 5386204 is mostly hit when db_block_size=16384.

Possible Symptoms

One evidence of hitting this bug might be the value 18038 in the third argument of
ORA-600 [kddummy_blkchk] where [18038] is a check error code.

@Error check code 18038 means that the “Data dba” stored in “Auxiliary Map” is out of range

@TYP:0 CLS: 4 AFN:234 DBA:0x3a801554 OBJ:0 SCN:0x000b.290f5e0d SEQ:  1 OP:14.2

@In this case “Data dba: 0x3a801555” stored in the “Auxiliary Map” is equal to 0x3a801551 + 4 which is out of the extent 0, hence the error.
@Note that extent 0 is 4 blocks, so extent 0 starts from 0x3a801551 to 0x3a801554.

Workaround or Resolution

In order to identify objects that are affected by the corruption, use the procedure
DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.ASSM_TABLESPACE_VERIFY

@DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.ASSM_SEGMENT_VERIFY is also an option but it requires patch for Bug 6760697 is needed)

How to execute DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.ASSM_TABLESPACE_VERIFY:

alter system set DB_BLOCK_CHECKSUM = OFF;
— open a new session and run :
exec DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.assm_tablespace_verify(‘<Tablespace Name>’, DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.TS_VERIFY_DEEP, DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.SEGMENT_VERIFY_DEEP);

See if any trace file is generated in the directory defined by user_dump_dest.
The absence of a trace file means that no corrupt segments were found.

Note: DB_BLOCK_CHECKSUM has to be disabled; otherwise the same ORA-600 error may be produced

@Oracle check block type 0x23=PAGETABLE SEGMENT HEADER even if DB_BLOCK_CHECKING is not set.

Example of output from DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.ASSM_TABLESPACE_VERIFY

@How to execute DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.ASSM_SEGMENT_VERIFY

WORKAROUNDs:

Disable DB_BLOCK_CHECKSUM for any action taken.

Note: DB_BLOCK_CHECKSUM has to be disabled; otherwise the same ORA-600 error may be produced

alter system set DB_BLOCK_CHECKSUM = OFF;
— open a new session

DROP TABLE .. PURGE;
ALTER TABLE .. MOVE ..;
Create table as select (CTAS)
export/import, etc

Patches

The patch prevents the corruption from taking place. Affected objects will have to be recreated.

This bug was previously incorrectly listed as fixed in 10.2.0.4.

@This problem is fixed in the 10.2.0.5 Patch Set (not available yet and still without a due date).
This problem is fixed in the 11.1.0.6 rdbms release.

One off patches for this issue are available for some platforms / versions.

See Patch 5386204 for patch availability.

PROBLEM:
——–
1. Clear description of the problem encountered
Customer is getting repeated ORA-600 [kddummy_blkchk] errors reported with
internal check code 18038 on tables which have had bulk deletions made.  This
has occurred on both production and test instances.

2. Pertinent configuration information (MTS/OPS/distributed/etc)
RAC, ASM

3. Indication of the frequency and predictability of the problem
Problem is intermittent but occurs several times a day impacting the
customers ability to work.

4. Sequence of events leading to the problem
Error is typically signalled on a COMMIT most likely following a deletion
from the tables.

5. Technical impact on the customer. Include persistent after effects.
Severe, as it occurs multiple times per day, and corrupt the underlying
tables preventing further data loads.

DIAGNOSTIC ANALYSIS:
——————–
The trace files show that the problem occurs following a bulk deletion from
the underlying tables, which appear to corrupt the extent map, as the segment
header dump shows 1 extent of 4 blks, but the deleteion entry in the redo
stream shows one extent of 8 blks, e.g.:

*** 07/12/06 02:34 am *** (CHG: Asg->NEW OWNER OWNER)

A redo dump of the segment header during the entire procedure execution was
requested on 06 Aug and supplied on 09 Aug so why are you asking for this
information again when you already have it?  Please check that file
(redo_1.trc in bug5386204_07Aug.zip), and let me know if you need anything
else.
*** 09/19/06 02:39 am *** (CHG: Sta->30)
Uploaded the requested information in file bug5386204_Oct02.zip.

*** 11/27/06 11:13 am ***
Here is one theory we (space group) have on this bug so far:
During direct load one of the segments does not get loaded with any data. The
segment is empty and the first extent has 8 blocks (this is 16k block size).
However it goes through the usual high water mark movement phase (even though
the hwm does not move). During the hwm movement phase, the segment is trimmed
close to 64k boundary. For ASSM segment with 16k block size, this means the
segment will be left with no data blocks after the trim- 4 blocks after the
trim would represent bitmaps and segment header only.

There are two issues here:
(1) Why was ktsstrm_segment called on an empty (or unloaded) segment at first
place?
(2) Even if it was called, why is segment trimmed to 64k boundary?

I’m working on the 2nd issue and will give an update soon.

We ran into some issues (bugs) while testing the code for the diagnostic
patch. I was hoping to have it finished by today but it seems it’ll take some
more time and I’m pretty hopeful of having it ready to go by tomorrow evening
(PST). I’m really sorry for the delay.
*** 12/01/06 07:16 pm ***
*** 12/02/06 05:05 pm ***
Sorry for the delay in replying. I would expect the long regressions to be
complete by sunday afternoon PST. I should be ready to release the patch by
sunday evening if things go fine. Will keep this page updated on my progress.
*** 12/03/06 05:30 pm ***
*** 12/04/06 05:35 pm ***
It seems most of major issues with the long regressions have been taken care
of and I hope to get a clean run on the farm soon, by tomorrow end of day and
the patch should be on its way soonafter.

I had a question though, that will help me in getting the patch out faster. I
wanted to know if the customer has had any diagnosibility patches installed
on their 10.2.0.2.0 release version.

Another thing which I would like to mention here is that my patch modifies
only one file (ktss.c) in the RDBMS code.

I was hoping to have all the farm regressions (and the patch) done by today
evening but it seems farm is taking a bit long to finish the regressions.
I’ll work on the patch as soon as I have the regressions done. Sorry for the
delay. I’ll provide an update on that in the next few hours.
*** 12/05/06 09:07 pm ***
My regressions are still moving very slowly through the queue on the farm.
The farm seems to be busy with 11g Beta 4 deadline round the corner. My
regressions have been on the farm for more than a day now. I’ll work on the
patch as soon as I have a clean farm run.
*** 12/06/06 06:15 pm ***
Still waiting on the clean farm runs. Fortunately, I’ve been able to get a
high priority on the farm jobs. So, I expect things to run clean soon. Will
keep things updated here.
*** 12/07/06 05:54 pm ***
Got my farm runs completed last night but got a small number of diffs. Have
been trying to isolate them and hopefully soon, everything should be clean.
Farm has been giving those diffs over and over again though those look
unrelated to my change. Currently, verifying them on my linux workstation.
*** 12/08/06 06:01 pm ***
*** 12/08/06 06:23 pm ***
Have been able to run almost all the long regressions locally and things look
clean. There’s just a couple of long regressions which I’m still running and
I should expect to be ready to go as soon as they are completed. Should be
able to start the patch building soon.
*** 12/11/06 01:07 am ***
There’s one long regression which seems to be broken. I’m currently working
on that to have it run clean. Will update as soon as I have it running clean.
*** 12/11/06 01:23 pm ***
Everything is clean now. Working on starting the patch building process.
*** 12/11/06 02:46 pm ***

The customer has confirmed that following application of the suplied patch
the error no longer occurred when running the testcase, which ran through to
completion after about 8 hours.  They are resetting the testcase, and will
run it again to verify this, but the initial response is that this looks to
have resolved the problem.

Can you confirm if the patch would need to be rebuilt as a permananent fix,
ie. any diagnostics to be removed etc. or is it actually the full fix anyway?
*** 12/13/06 07:19 am ***
The customer has confirmed the following:

1. Rerun the test for the 2nd time with patched rdbms: completed quickly and
without any problems.
2. Rollbacked the patch: the test failed as expected within 30 minutes.
3. Re-applied the patch and ran the test once again: completed ok.

This appears to confirm that the patch resolves the problem so could we have
an answer to the previous update?
*** 12/13/06 07:47 pm ***
That is good news.
No additional diagnostics have been added to the patch. So, it’s not needed
to be rebuilt. I guess the supplied patch should be complete in itself.
*** 12/14/06 12:40 am ***
Thanks for the update.

该文档描述当使用直接路径方式导入数据时一定概率导致该Bug产生,譬如使用Sql loader且DIRECT=Y;
该Bug只会由存贮在本地管理方式(LTM)并自动段管理(ASSM)的对象引发, 并且当标准块大小为16k时出现概率较高(Bug 5386204 is mostly hit when db_block_size=16384.)

其中辅助区间图( Auxillary Map)列出了该段每个区间(Extent)的一级位图块以及区间中实际数据开始的data block address (Data dba).譬如Extent 0 中的Data dba应在
(0x0100008A ~0x01000090)之间,否则即越界。
DROP或TRUNCATE是触发该Bug的主要操作,原因是这2个操作都需要使用到Pagetable segment header中的Auxiliary Map。
Oracle建议的WorkAround方式主要是通过MOVE TABLESPACE 来”REBUILD”这个PAGETABLE SEGMENT HEADER。
这个Case中Oracle support给出Workaround建议:

1-. Make sure the below query will return the table mentioned above:

SQL> select owner, object_name, object_type, SUBOBJECT_NAME, OBJECT_ID,
DATA_OBJECT_ID, CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP
from DBA_OBJECTS
where DATA_OBJECT_ID =1699775;

If so continue:

SQL>alter system set DB_BLOCK_CHECKSUM = OFF;

Find all indexes for W_ORG_DS table.

SQL> select owner, index_name, index_type, table_name , table_owner from dba_indexes
Where table_owner = ‘BMS_OBA_DW’ and
Table_name = ‘W_ORG_DS’;

connect as BMS_OBA_DW

SQL> desc W_ORG_DS

if this table does not have LONG column, then Alter table table_name move is like a CTAS but better since is using the same name of the object plus keeping any related object like index, etc. If it has Long column then export/truncate/import need to be use;

SQL>Alter table W_ORG_DS Move;

Then rebuild all indexes for W_ORG_DS table as per above query: .i.e.

SQL>Alter index rebuild

To avoid problem, please apply patch for bug 5386204, see note 580561.1 for further information.

Oracle文档宣称其已在10.2.0.4的第一个patch set update及10.2.0.5中修复了该Bug.

注:最早认为该Bug在10.2.0.4中就已经修复了,但后来确认“This bug was previously incorrectly listed as fixed in 10.2.0.4”。

参数cluster_interconnect详细介绍

以下文本摘自metalink doc:

This note attempts to clarify the cluster_interconnects parameter and the
platforms on which the implementation has been made. A brief explanation on
the workings of the parameter has also been presented in this note.
This is also one of the most frequently questions related to cluster and RAC
installations on most sites and forms a part of the prerequisite as well.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
——————-
1. What is the parameter CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS for ?

Answer
——
This parameter is used to influence the selection of the network interface
for Global Cache Service (GCS) and Global Enqueue Service (GES) processing.

This note does not compare the other elements of 8i OPS with 9i RAC
because of substantial differences in the behaviour of both architectures.
Oracle 9i RAC has certain optimizations which attempt to transfer most of
the information required via the interconnects so that the number of disk
reads are minimized. This behaviour known as Cache fusion phase 2 is summarised
in Note 139436.1
The definition of the interconnnect is a private network which
will be used to transfer the cluster traffic and Oracle Resource directory
information and blocks to satisfy queries. The technical term for that is
cache fusion.

The CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS should be used when
– you want to override the default network selection
– bandwith of a single interconnect does not meet the bandwith requirements of
  a Real Application Cluster database

The syntax of the parameter is:

CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS = if1:if2:…:ifn
Where if<n> is an IP address in standard dotted-decimal format, for example,
144.25.16.214. Subsequent platform implementations may specify interconnects
with different syntaxes.
2. Is the parameter CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS available for all platforms ?

Answer
——

This parameter is configurable on most platforms.
This parameter can not be used on Linux.

The following Matrix shows when the parameter was introduced on which platform:

Operating System    Available since
AIX                   9.2.0
HP/UX                 9.0.1
HP Tru64              9.0.1
HP OPenVMS            9.0.1
Sun Solaris           9.0.1

3.  How is the Interconnect recognized on Linux ?

Answer
——
Since Oracle9i 9.2.0.8 CLUSTER_INTECONNETCS can be used to change the interconnect.
A patch is also available for 9.2.0.7 under Patch 4751660.
Before 9.2.0.8 the Oracle implementation for the interface selection reads the ‘private hostname’
in the cmcfg.ora file and uses the corresponding ip-address for the interconnect.
If no private hostname is available the public hostname will be used.
4.  Where could I find information on this parameter ?

Answer
——

The parameter is documented in the following books:
Oracle9i Database Reference Release 2 (9.2)
Oracle9i Release 1 (9.0.1) New Features in Oracle9i Database Reference –
                   What’s New in Oracle9i Database Reference?
Oracle9i Real Application Clusters Administration Release 2 (9.2)
Oracle9i Real Application Clusters Deployment and Performance Release 2 (9.2)

Also port specific documentation may contain information about the usage of
the cluster_interconnects parameter.

5. How to detect which interconnect is used ?
    The following commands show which interconnect is used for UDP or TCP:
    sqlplus> connect / as sysdba
             oradebug setmypid
             oradebug ipc
             exit

    The corresponding trace can be found in the user_dump_dest directory and for
    example contains the following information in the last couple of lines:

           SKGXPCTX: 0x32911a8 ctx
           admno 0x12f7150d admport:
           SSKGXPT 0x3291db8 flags SSKGXPT_READPENDING     info for network 0
                 socket no 9     IP 172.16.193.1         UDP 43307
                 sflags SSKGXPT_WRITESSKGXPT_UP
                 info for network 1
                 socket no 0     IP 0.0.0.0      UDP 0
                 sflags SSKGXPT_DOWN
           context timestamp 0x1ca5
                 no ports
   Please note that on some platforms and versions (Oracle9i 9.2.0.1 on Windows)
   you might see an ORA-70 when the command oradebug ipc has not been
   implemented.

   When  other protocols such as LLT, HMP or RDG are used, then the trace file will not
   reveal an IP address.
6.  Cluster_Interconnects is mentioned in the 9i RAC administration
    guide as a Solaris specific parameter, is this the only platform
    where this parameter is available ?

Answer
—– 

This information that this parameter works on Solaris only is incorrect. Please
check the answer for question number 2 for the complete list of platforms for the same.

7.  Are there any side effects for this parameter, namely affecting normal
    operations ?

Answer
—–
When you set CLUSTER_INTERCONNECTS in cluster configurations, the
interconnect high availability features are not available. In other words,
an interconnect failure that is normally unnoticeable would instead cause
an Oracle cluster failure as Oracle still attempts to access the network
interface which has gone down. Using this parameter you are explicitly
specifying the interface or list of interfaces to be used.
 

8.  Is the parameter OPS_INTERCONNECTS which was available in 8i similar
    to this parameter ?

Answer
——
Yes, the parameter OPS_INTERCONNECTS was used to influence the network selection
for the Oracle 8i Parallel Server.

9.  Does Cluster_interconnect allow failover from one Interconnect to another
    Interconnect ?

Answer
——
Failover capability is not implemented at the Oracle level. In general this
functionality is delivered by hardware and/or Software of the operating system.
For platform details please see Oracle platform specific documentation
and the operating system documentation.
10. Is the size of messages limited on the Interconnect ?

Answer
——
The message size depends on the protocoll and platform.
UDP: In Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.0.1) message size for UDP was limited to 32K.
     Oracle9i 9.2.0.2 allows to use bigger UDP message sizes depending on the
     platform. To increase throughput on an interconnect you have to adjust
     udp kernel parameters.
TCP: There is no need to set the message size for TCP.
RDG: The recommendations for RDG are documented in
        Oracle9i Administrator’s Reference – Part No. A97297-01

11. How can you see which protocoll is being used by the instances ?

Answer
——
Please see the alert-file(s) of your RAC instances. During startup you’ll
   find a message in the alert-file that shows the protocoll being used.

12. Can the parameter CLUSTER_INTERCONNECT be changed dynamically during runtime ?

Answer
——
    No. Cluster_interconnects is a static parameter and can only be set in the
    spfile or pfile (init.ora)
