【案例分享】RAC中可能由于节点cache temp space导致ora-1652错误

11.2.0.3  RAC环境中, 可能由于节点 cache temp space,导致虽然free temp space还有很多,但仍有节点因为无法分配temp space而出现ORA-1652错误。

具体可以参考如下note, 目前已经提供了补丁Bug 14383007 – Sort runs out of temp space in RAC even when temp space is available

 

 

Applies to:

Oracle Database – Enterprise Edition – Version 11.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.3 [Release 11.2]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Temporary tablespace space allocation fails in RAC even when there is still free temp space.

ORA-12801: error signaled in parallel query server P017
ORA-01652: unable to extend temp segment by 640 in tablespace XY_TEMP

 

Cause

Unbalanced temp space distribution in RAC.  One instance seems to consume and cache most of the temp space, causing another instance to hit the ora-1652.

SQL> select inst_id, tablespace_name, round((total_blocks*8192)/(1024*1024*1024),2) “Space(GB)”
2 from gv$sort_segment
3 where tablespace_name=’XY_TEMP’
4 order by 1;

INST_ID  TABLESPACE_NAME        Space(GB)
———- —————————— ———-
1           XY_TEMP                           33.39
2           XY_TEMP                           33.77
3           XY_TEMP                           34.16
4           XY_TEMP                           33.39
5           XY_TEMP                           33.46
6           XY_TEMP                       1118.79   <<<<very unbalanced
7           XY_TEMP                           33.28
8           XY_TEMP                           34.26

This is reported in Bug 14383007 – sort runs out of temp space on 2 nodes even when temp space is available
This bug will be fixed in 11.2.0.4 (future release). Refer < Document 14383007.8> for more details.

Useful queries for debugging:

Collect the information every few seconds:
1. select  * from gv$sort_segment
2. select sum(bytes), owner from gv$temp_extent_map group by owner;
3. select inst_id, blocks_cached, blocks_used, extents_cached, extents_used from GV$TEMP_EXTENT_POOL;

Solution

Workaround is:
Retry the operation.

One-off patch 14383007 has been provided for certain platform, please check My Oracle Support for patch detail.
