昨天一备份数据库,在open read only的过程中出现故障，从而导致在standby上备份失败。alert log 中信息如下：
Errors in file /opt/oracle/admin/crmhz/udump/crmhz_ora_13914.trc:
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-16000: database open for read-only access

再查看trace file信息

都没有提供什么有价值的信息，很奇怪会出现604错误
于是决定trace? open过程
startup nomount
alter database mount standby? database;
select sid from v$mystat where rownum = 1;
select sid,serial# from v$session where sid = ?;
exec dbms_system.set_ev(sid,serial#,10046,12,'');
alter database open read only;
这是数据库crash ,找到trace file，发现末尾部分为
select grantee#,privilege#,nvl(col#,0),max(mod(nvl(option$,0),2))from objauth$ where obj#=:1 group by grantee#,privilege#,nvl(col#,0) order by grantee#

很奇怪，正常standby数据库open read only的时候是没有delete的，在这里居然出现dml。于是一开始我尝试去研究idl_ub1$是个什么表，结果发现是存储 pl/sql代码的，很奇怪，这个数据库为什么会出现个状况，继续在 $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin 下 grep -ir idl_ub1$ * ，结果找到和一个x$ 表挂上关系做连接了，未果，又通过 delete from idl_ub1$ where obj#=:1 中绑定变量value=4294951150 去结合搜索出来的view查找，也没什么进展。实际上，根据 WAIT #12: nam='db file sequential read' ela= 27 p1=1 p2=9 p3=1 可以知道这个delete是访问了file# =1 block#=9 的数据块，很显然，这是系统回滚段的块头，根据这里我们可以知道，这是一个回滚操作，也就是说，在主数据库中由于DDL 的失败，使得系统回滚段中记录了该操作的回退信息，但是数据库又还没有回滚完成，到了standby中就出现这个状况了。
为了尝试解决这个问题，首先继续应用几个日志，再open read only，结果失败，也就是说该失败的ddl在主数据库一直没有回滚，而数据库中已经查找不到任何异常进程或者事务、锁，只能认为是系统出现异常。于是，今天在征得相关负责人的同意的情况下，我们决定在下班后将主数据库重新启动一次看看，这样强迫系统回滚失败的ddl。下班重新启动数据库，切换日志并归档，在standby上应用日志到重起数据库之后产生的归档日志，再open read only 成功，问题得到解决。
