关于索引重建是否需要更新统计信息

今天有一个dba问我关于索引重建是否需要更新统计信息的问题,其实这个问题有点儿经验的dba都会冒出,真正的答案的是不需要更新,包括创建索引.

具体见以下sql reference的说明:

COMPUTE STATISTICS Clause

This clause has been deprecated. Oracle Database now automatically collects statistics during index creation and rebuild. This clause is supported for backward compatibility and will not cause errors.

这是这两天遭遇的错误

在大前天写索引维护碰到asm cannot mount asmdiskgroup的支援电话后就赶赴现场,
趁现在有点空闲记录下这2天遭遇的错误
ora – 00600 [2662]
ora – 00600 [4097]
ora – 00600 [kargrp1]
Linux-x86_64 Error: 30: Read-only file system
CRS-2106:The OLR location /u01/grid/cdata/dydmsdb02.olr is inaccessible
utread:3: Problem reading buffer a6f000 buflen 4096 retval 0 phy_offset
存储控制器背板全坏
存储闪掉电.

数据于当晚就马上抢救回来.当时voting已经损坏,raw信息也已经丢失,系统多路径混乱.
折腾.不过总算不辱DBA使命.

浅谈如何了解一个B-tree索引的变化过程

索引在我们日常维护数据库的性能中占用非常大的比例,如何维护好你的索引很大程度上关系着数据库的性能,当然了索引只是性能调整中数据model的一部分,本文只是大头根据对索引的理解结合脚本来浅浅的对b-tree索引的变化做一个描述,权当饭后谈资,有错误和需要弥补的地方还要靠大家指正.

b-tree索引是啥我就不解释了,不懂的朋友参考oracle concept或者摸下度娘.很多dba都知道,维护索引无外乎如下几种情况:

1.索引有没有
2.索引设计合不合理
3.索引碎片太多了
4.索引过大了,虚胖
5.索引聚簇因不同步

郁闷碰到故障了··rac disgroup 起不来~先去trouble shooting了.

后续补上.

遭遇ORA-27300: OS system dependent operation:fork failed with status: 12

系统平台为

Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)

数据库版本

11.2.0.3

遭遇这个错误主要是因为备份恢复出问题了,执行介质恢复一下吃光了而且系统告警日志报错如下:

/opt/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/standbydbrtps/RTPS/trace/RTPS_psp0_6332.trc:
ORA-27300: OS system dependent operation:fork failed with status: 12
ORA-27301: OS failure message: Not enough space
ORA-27302: failure occurred at: skgpspawn3

在系统的/var/adm/messages中同时也收到信息如下:

shadowdog-FO genunix: [ID 470503 kern.warning] WARNING: Sorry,

经过诊断与Oracle bug 18387547吻合.该bug信息如下:

Hdr: 18387547 11.2.0.3 RDBMS 11.2.0.3 SECURITY PRODID-5 PORTID-23
Abstract: MEMORY LEAK OF RECOVERY PROCESS IF TDE IS ENABLED

*** 03/12/14 01:45 am ***

PROBLEM:
--------
Customer uses TDE and physical standby. The memory will be eaten by the
recovery process (manual or managed).

DIAGNOSTIC ANALYSIS:
--------------------
When media recovery starts, process that do media recovery (ora_mrp if
recovery is run without parallelism or ora_pr if it is parallel recovery), is
allocating 96 bytes buffers in order to do ioctl() for /dev/crypto, but the
memory is not beeing freed (dtrace shows only malloc() calls, and no free()
calls). Each ioctl() call will be issued with new 96 buffer, and that will
deplete memory on server, causing server to stop once all virtual memory is
used.

In /var/adm/messages we can see the errors:
