物理Data Guard中哪个进程处理Redo GAP
物理Data Guard中哪个进程处理Redo GAP
在Oracle Data Guard中，Redo Gap的产生是由于一些网络或者其他问题导致redo的传输中断。当故障消除后，这些没有传输过去的redo文件会由一些进程发现，并且将它们传输到备库。术语：
ARC:归档进程
MRP:Media Recovery Process，在备库上负责应用redo
RFS:Remote File Server ，在备库上接收发送过来的redo文件
FAL:Fetch Archive Log
测试目的：由于网络问题发生了gap后，确定哪个进程负责处理gap。
测试环境：Oracle 11.2.0.2 on Linux 5.
测试过程：
1.确保当前主库和备库是同步的：
Primary:
MAX(SEQUENCE#)
--------------
86
Standby:
MAX(SEQUENCE#)
--------------
86
2. 模拟网络中断，导致gap:
在主库将网卡停掉： #ifconfig eth0 down
将主库执行数次switch logfile:
SQL>alter system switch logfile;
SQL>alter system switch logfile;
...
Primary:
MAX(SEQUENCE#)
--------------
96
这时主库alert log报出了与备库连接不通的错误：
TNS-00513: Destination host unreachable
nt secondary err code: 101
nt OS err code: 0
Error 12543 received logging on to the standby
FAL[server, ARCp]: Error 12543 creating remote archivelog file 'STANDBY'
FAL[server, ARCp]: FAL archive failed, see trace file.
ARCH: FAL archive failed. Archiver continuing
ORACLE Instance orcl - Archival Error. Archiver continuing.
3.将主库的这些归档临时换个目录，保证这些归档无法传到备库：
mv *.arc ../
4. 启动主库的网卡：
#ifconfig eth0 up
5.这时，主库的ARC并没有把缺少的日志传到备库。最终备库的MRP发现了gap并把gap fetching.

6.通过MRP的trace，可以确定是MRP 作了fetching gap:
MRP trace:

7.将移走的归档日志移回之后，备库的RFS接收到了这些日志, MRP 将这些日志进行了apply.

测试结论：
通过这个例子说明，对于这种gap的处理，主库的ARC进程对于以前产生的gap文件，并没有进行处理。是备库的MRP进程在apply log的时候发现了gap,将这些文件通过FAL进程取回。
注：在11g,理论上主库的ARC进程和备库的RFS、MRP进程在某些情况都有可能处理gap.
8. 为了进一步确定是MRP通过FAL取了gap文件，我将主库的密码修改了一下，结果MRP的trace中报错：FAL[client, MRP0]，说明是通过FAL取的。
