通过ASH不难发现 buffer busy waits 被 log file switch (checkpoint incomplete) 阻塞,而 log file switch (checkpoint incomplete) 又被 LGWR 的 control file sequential read 阻塞。

接下来再看一眼AWR的iostat,很快发现LGWR有大量的读取,并且都是在读取控制控制文件,12分钟内的读取高达1.5G。

结合ASH中的 LGWR 是最终holder,并且 LGWR 等待 control file sequential read 的事实,我们可能很快将 LGWR 列为重点怀疑对象,如果真是这样,那就跑偏了。 此时不妨停下来思考一下,什么是 log file switch (checkpoint incomplete)? log file switch (checkpoint incomplete) 指的是当redo需要向下一组 redo group 切换的时候,发现下组日志是 active 的,也就是说下组日志中对应的一些 buffer cache 中的脏块尚未写入到数据文件中,因此必须等待这些脏块被完毕后,才可以复用下一组 redo group。 接下来再思考一下,哪个进程负责将脏块写入到数据文件?答案是DBWn,因此我们更需要关注的是DBWn。分析一下OSWatcher不难发现DBW0的状态是D,man一下ps命令: D指的是Uninterruptible sleep (usually IO),也就是说DBW0 hang在I/O上了,这才是问题的根本原因。 那么为什么LGWR会执行如此多的 control file sequential read ?答案是DBWn出现问题导致 LGWR不断查询control 文件获取redo 状态(看它有没有切换成功)导致大量的 control file sequential read 下面通过实验来演示这个现象: Test on 12.1.0.2 Session 1: 创建一个表,并且update一下让其产生redo

Session 2: 用于查看redo的切换状态

Session 3: 确定DBWn以及LGWR的 spid,并且通过 oradebug 将 DBW0 suspend住让其不工作
SQL> set line 200 pages 1000 SQL> select spid,program from v$process where program like '%DBW%' or program like '%LG%'; SPID PROGRAM ------------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------- 5768 ORACLE.EXE (DBW0) 7248 ORACLE.EXE (LGWR) 6384 ORACLE.EXE (LG00) 6308 ORACLE.EXE (LG01) SQL> oradebug setospid 5768 Oracle pid: 11, Windows thread id: 5768, image: ORACLE.EXE (DBW0) SQL> oradebug suspend Statement processed.
接下来在Session 1中再执行几次update让其自动切换日志: Session 1:
SQL> update t set object_name=object_name; 93841 rows updated. SQL> / 93841 rows updated. SQL> / 93841 rows updated. SQL> / ---- 在这里hang住了
Session 4: 观察等待事件

接下来我们对LGWR做10046 trace,观察其等待: 可见反复的 control file sequential read

最后我们将DBWn恢复,结束这个无限的 control file sequential read 等待。 回到Session 3,resume DBW0:
SQL> oradebug resume Statement processed.只要理解了原理,这个问题本来不难诊断,但是ASH和AWR的信息会让DBA错误的认为是 LGWR 的等待control file sequential read导致的问题。
