ORA-16766 MRP0: Background Media Recovery terminated with error XXXX

查看日志是否在备库中应用，如下语句：

Sql>select sequence#,applied from v$archived_log;

      6313 YES

从运行的结果看，备库中一些归档日志未被应用。刚开始以为系统慢影响的，但在下班时又运行此sql语句，却发现越来越多的日志没有应用，感到日志应用出现了问题。就去查看数据库的日志文件alter_orcl.log，发现MRP0进程无法启动。如下：

MRP0: Background Media Recovery process shutdown (orcl)

Fri Dec 31 10:33:11 2010

 

同时使用此sql语句查看备库上相关DG的进程如下，没有MRP0进程：

SQL> select process,status,sequence# from v$managed_standby;

 

PROCESS            STATUS                    SEQUENCE#

------------------ ------------------------ ----------

ARCH               CONNECTED                         0

ARCH               CONNECTED                         0

RFS                IDLE                              0

 

接下来就排查ORA-16136错误，在google和baidu中搜ORA-16136，出现的答案都不能解决问题。

然后搜索MRP0不能启动的问题，然后出现的答案还是不能解决问题。最后在日志中找到MRP0: Background Media Recovery terminated with error 1111此语句在GOOGLE中进行搜索，找到了答案进行尝试，可以了。其解决方法如下：

1.将自动管理改为手动；

Sql> ALTER SYSTEM SET standby_file_management='MANUAL' SCOPE=MEMORY;

2.恢复日志中提示的文件；

Sql> alter database create datafile '/home/oracle/OraHome1/dbs/UNNAMED00005'

as '/oradata/orcl_std/sys06.dbf';

此文件大约为60G;且说明sys06.dbf文件是一个新文件，按此命名即可；

3.关闭备库

Sql>shutdown immediate;

4.重新备库

Sql>startup nomount;

5.切换到standby 状态；

Sql>alter database mount standby database;

6.切换到应用归档日志状态

Sql>recover managed standby database disconnect;

 

此时再看查alert_orcl.log发现MRP0进程正常启动了，同时开始应用归档日志了。

7.使用引语句查看MRP0进程是否启动，如下已启动。

SQL> select process,status,sequence# from v$managed_standby;

 

PROCESS            STATUS                    SEQUENCE#

------------------ ------------------------ ----------

ARCH               CONNECTED                         0

ARCH               CONNECTED                         0

RFS                IDLE                              0

MRP0               APPLYING_LOG                   6325

 

在此归档日志应用过程中，用户反映ERP操作太慢，但从OEM上看主库很正常，说明什么问题呢？

 

其原理：

正常备库应用的是归档文件，但当主数据库强行关机再重新启动后，主数据库会进行恢复工作，此时会有一部分数据不在归档日志中，但这部分数据会等主数据库恢复完后以UNNAME0005等这样的文件命名保存此数据，此文件保存在DBS中，但从linux中进去查看却看不到这个文件。同时这个数据也会传到备库对应的目录中。

若数据库应用日志的先后顺序是这样：redo1->redo2->redo3，但在主库强行关机时会有一部分数据unname在两个日志间，如redo1->redo2->unname-redo3。因此若不处理unname这部分数据文件的话，则备库在应用redo3时就会出错，提示找到文件，就会出现不能应用日志的情况。要想能正常应用日志，先处理unname的文件，处理后备库先应用unname文件，然后才能按日志的顺序应用。

 

 原解决方案文档如下：

 

I came across this Data Guard situation lately where a datafile was added to the primary database, but failed during creation on the standby. The database version was 10.2.0.3 and standby_file_management was set to AUTO.

Standby_file_management is a parameter, and when set to AUTO on the standby site, will create datafiles automatically on the standby site, for every datafile created on the primary site.

I started getting alerts in a few minutes on the standby for the following error.

WARNING: File being created with same name as in Primary Existing file may be overwritten
File #309 added to control file as 'UNNAMED00309'.

From the message it was clear that the datafile creation had failed on the standby, even though standby_file_management was set to AUTO. It failed for the reason that the directory the datafile was created in, "/disk1/oradata/primary/", was not there on the Physical Standby. However, we want the directory "/disk1/oradata/primary/" to be "/disk1/oradata/standby/" on the standby. This is taken care of by "DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT" parameter set on the standby. However, if you have several lines for this parameter,

SQL> Show parameter db_file_name_convert

will display as empty. At that point, the only way to check that value is to view the parameter file.

So login to standby database and issue

Step 1: SQL> create pfile from spfile;

Now go to $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory for that initialization parameter file.

In our case, we had clearly missed the directory that the datafile was created on the standby.

Change the pfile to add that destination

Db_file_name_convert= '/disk1/oradata/primary','/disk1/oradata/standby'

Step 2: Now login to the standby and cancel the recovery

SQL> alter database recover standby managed database cancel;

Database altered

Step 3: Shutdown and startup the standby database using new parameter file.

SQL> shutdown immediate;
ORA-01507: database not mounted

ORACLE instance shut down.

SQL> startup mount pfile=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initstandby.ora
ORACLE instance started.

SQL> create spfile from pfile;

Step 4: Start the managed recovery on the standby.

SQL> alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;

Database altered.

The above command will tell standby to start applying archivelogs from where it was missing. I got the following errors in the alert log this time:

This is because whenever datafile creation fails, Oracle server will create an invisible datafile called UNNAMED and make it look like it is there under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs. When the automatic recovery is resumed, it looks at that UNNAMED file, and the standby fails again with the message:

ORA-01111: name for data file 309 is unknown - rename to correct file

Now you need to rename that file to the one that you want to create in order for the physical standby to continue applying remaining logs.

Step 5: So now when you try to issue the "rename" command, you will get this error:

SQL> alter database rename file '/disk1/oracle/product/10.2.0/dbs/UNNAMED00309' to
'/disk1/oradata/stbydb2/sys06.dbf'
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01511: error in renaming log/data files
ORA-01275: Operation RENAME is not allowed if standby file management is automatic.

This is because RENAME (ADD/DROP,CREATE) operations on the standby is not allowed, when standby_file_manageent is set to AUTO. Now you need to change the parameter to MANUAL for the above command to work.

Step 6: SQL> alter system set STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT=MANUAL scope=memory;

System altered.

Step 7: SQL> alter database rename file
'/disk1/oracle/product/10.2.0/dbs/UNNAMED00309' to '/disk1/oradata/stbydb2/sys06.dbf';
alter database rename file '/disk1/oracle/product/10.2.0/dbs/UNNAMED00309' to '/disk1/oradata/stbydb2/sys06.dbf'
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01511: error in renaming log/data files
ORA-01141: error renaming data file 309 - new file

ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status
SVR4 Error: 2: No such file or directory
Additional information: 3

Oh... What now? Well, we can not rename to a file that doesn't already exist, so we actually need to create the datafile.

Step 8: SQL> alter database create datafile
'/disk1/oracle/product/10.2.0/dbs/UNNAMED00309' as '/disk1/oradata/stbydb2/sys06.dbf';

Database altered.

Yes, finally! Ok, datafile created. Let's put the automatic recovery back on the standby.

Step 9: SQL> alter database recover standby database;
alter database recover standby database
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00279: change 9999250009 generated at 02/05/2008 07:28:43 needed for thread 1

ORA-00280: change 9999250009 for thread 1 is in sequence #215423

Now Oracle wants me to manually specify the archive log files to be applied. This is because I changed the standby_file_management parameter earlier to MANUAL. I need to put it back to AUTO.

Step 10: SQL> alter system set STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT=AUTO scope=memory;

System altered.

Step 11: Now issue the command
SQL> recover automatic standby database;

Media recovery complete.

Check the alert log

Datafile #310: '/disk1/oradata/stbydb2/users121.dbf'

Yes, it successfully created the datafile and the recovery resumed. All the missing 105 archive log files were applied against 2.5TB OLTP database.

Best practices and lesson learned: Whenever you add a datafile to the primary, login to standby and make sure it was created successfully. The best way to do that is to issue "tail –f alert*" in the background_dump_dest directory. If for some reason the datafile creation has failed, cancel the recovery on the standby, and do only the steps 6, 8, 10 and 11 in this document.
