在版本10.2.0.4未打上相关one-off补丁的情况下,分别对ASSM和MSSM管理模式表空间进行索引分裂测试,经过测试的结论如下:
l 在10gr2版本中MSSM方式是不能避免索引分裂引起交易超时问题;
l 10.2.0.4上的one-off补丁因为目前仅存在Linux版本,可以考虑声请补丁后具体测试(因目前没有补丁所以处于未知状态)。
l 合并索引是目前最具可行性的解决方案(alter index coalesce)。
l 最新的11gr2中经测试仍存在该问题。

如演示1所示,在自动段管理模式下大量删除后插入造成许多块为75%-100%空闲率且不完全为空,此后叶块分裂时将引起插入操作的相关前台进程扫描大量“空块“,若这些块不在内存中(引发物理读)且可能需要延迟块清除等原因时,减缓了该扫描操作的速度,造成叶块分裂缓慢,最终导致了其他insert操作被split操作所阻塞,出现enq:tx index contention等待事件。

如演示2所示,MSSM情况下叶块分裂读取了比ASSM模式下更多的“空块“;MSSM并不能解决大量删除后叶块分裂需要扫描大量非空块的问题,实际上可能更糟糕。从理论上讲MSSM的freelist只能指出那些未达到pctfree和曾经到达pctfree后来删除记录后使用空间下降到pctused的块(doc:A free list is a list of free data blocks that usually includes blocks existing in a number of different extents within the segment. Free lists are composed of blocks in which free space has not yet reached PCTFREE or used space has shrunk below PCTUSED.),换而言之MSSM模式下”空块“会更多。

--没有dml时,coalesce 操作涉及了所有块 |
如演示5所示coalesce会避开dml操作涉及的块,但在coalesec的短暂间歇出现在索引上有事务的块不会太多。且coalesce操作不会降低索引高度。
附件是关于rebuild及coalesce索引操作的详细描述:
6. Coalesce操作总结
优点:
l 是一种快速的操作,对整体性能影响最小(not performance sensitive)。
l 不会锁表,绕过有事务的索引块。
l 可以有效解决现有的问题。
l 不会降低索引高度,引起再次的root split
缺点:
l 需要针对个别对象,定期执行合并操作;无法一劳永逸地全局地解决该问题。
7. Linux 10.2.0.4上相关补丁的技术交流
Metalink bug 8286901 note中叙述了一位用户遇到相同的问题并提交了SR,当时oracle support给出了one-off补丁,但该用户在apply了该补丁后仍未解决问题。
以下为note 原文:
It is similar to bug8286901, but after applied patch8286901, still see enq tx
contentiona with high "failed probes on index block reclamation"
Issue encountered by customer and Oracle developer (Stefan Pommerenk).
He describes is thus:
"Space search performed by the index splitter can't find space in neighboring
blocks, and then instead of allocating new space, we go and continue to
search for space elsewhere, which manifests itself in block reads from disk,
block cleanouts, and subsequent blocks written due to aggressive MTTR
setting."
"To clarify: the cleanouts are not the problem per se. The culprit seems to
be that the space search performed by the index splitter can't find space in
neighboring blocks, and then instead of allocating new space, we go and
continue to search for space elsewhere, which manifests itself in block reads
from disk, block cleanouts, and subsequent blocks written due to aggressive
MTTR setting. This action has caused other sessions to get blocked on TX
enqueue contention, blocked on the splitting session. Advice was to set 10224
trace event for the splitter for a short time only in order to get
diagnostics as to why the space search rejected most blocks.
> A secondary symptom are the bitmap level 1 block updates, which may or may
not be related to the space search; I've not seen them before, maybe because
I didn't really pay attention :P , but the symptoms seen in the ASH trace
indicate it's the same problem. Someone in space mgmt has to look at it to
confirm it is the same problem."

与该用户进行了mail私下交流,他的回复:
I still have a case open with Oracle. I believe that this is a bug in the Oracle code. The problem is that it has been difficult to create a reproducible test case for Oracle support. My specific issue was basically put on hold pending the results of another customer’s service request that appeared to have had the same issue, (9034788). Unfortunately they couldn’t reproduce the issue in that case either.
I believe that there is a correlation between the enq TX – index contention wait event and a spike in the number of ‘failed probes on index block reclamation. I have specifically asked Oracle to explain why there is a spike in the ‘failed probes on index block reclamation’ during the same time frame as the enq TX index contention wait event, but they have not answered my question.
I was hoping that some investigation by Oracle Support into the failed probes metric might get someone on the right track to discovering the bug. That hasn’t happened though.
Hi ,
Thanks for your sharing . The bug (or specific ktsp behave) is fatal in response time sensitive OLTP env.
I would like to ask my customer to coalesce those index where massive deleted regularly.
Thanks for your help again!
Yes, I saw that. I have applied patch 8286901 and set the event for version 10.2.0.4, but the problem still occurs periodically. And as I mentioned before, we see a correlation between enq TX waits and the failed probes on index block reclamation. Which is why I still think that it is a bug. I agree that trying to rebuild or coalesce the indexes are simply attempts to workaround the issue and not solve the root cause.
Early on when I started on this issue I did do some index dumps and could clearly see that we had lots of blocks with only 1 or 2 records after our mass delete jobs. I have provided Oracle Support with this information as well as oradump files while the problem is occurring, but they don’t seem to be able to find anything wrong so far.
If you are interested in seeing if you are experiencing a high ‘failed probes on index block reclamation’ event run the query below.
select SS.snap_id,
SS.stat_name,
TO_CHAR(S.BEGIN_INTERVAL_TIME, ‘DAY’) DAY,
S.BEGIN_INTERVAL_TIME,
S.END_INTERVAL_TIME,
SS.value,
SS.value – LAG(SS.VALUE, 1, ss.value) OVER (ORDER BY SS.SNAP_ID) AS DIFF
from DBA_HIST_SYSSTAT SS,
DBA_HIST_SNAPSHOT S
where S.SNAP_ID = SS.SNAP_ID
AND SS.stat_NAME = ‘failed probes on index block reclamation’
ORDER BY SS.SNAP_ID ; |
- 在11gr2上的测试
--在最新的11gr2中进行了测试,仍可以重现该问题(如图单条insert引起了6675的buffer_gets,这是在更大量数据的情况下)。 |
我们可以猜测Oracle提供的one-off补丁中可能是为叶块分裂所会扫描的“空块”附加了一个上限,在未达到上限的情况下扫描仍会发生。而在主流的公开的发行版本中Oracle不会引入该补丁的内容。
尝试在没有缓存的情况下引起分裂问题,分裂引起了大约4000个块的物理读,但该操作仍在0.12秒(有缓存是0.02秒,如图)内完成了(该测试使用普通ata硬盘,读取速度在100MB/S: Timing buffered disk reads: 306 MB in 3.00 seconds = 101.93 MB/sec);从1月21日的ash视图中可以看到引起split的260会话处于单块读等待(db file sequential read)中,且已等待了43950us约等于44ms;这与良好io的经验值10ms左右有较大出入;我们可以确信io性能问题也是引发此叶块分裂延迟如此显性的一个重要因素。
具体结论
综上所述,在之前讨论的几个方案中,MSSM方式是不能避免索引分裂引起交易超时问题的;不删除数据的方案在许多对象上不可行;10.2.0.4上的one-off补丁因为目前仅存在Linux版本,可以考虑声请补丁后具体测试(因目前没有补丁所以处于未知状态)。Coalesce合并索引是目前既有的最具可操作性且无副作用的解决方案。
