SOLUTION
Issue matches with bug 11712267 and bug 16717701
Since two bugs are matching with the case,
You can try with option (1) . As per Bug 11712267
change the cursor_sharing to force on Active dataguard (ADG).
Monitor your environment for sometime.
If it crashes again then follow with the option (2)
Option (2):
As per bug description
LGWR can request DBINSTANCE lock in X mode without any timeout which can lead to a hang / deadlock.
Both fixes are already included in 11.2.0.4 but the fix is DISABLED by default.
== > To ENABLE the fix one has to set == > "_adg_parselock_timeout" > to the number of centi-seconds == > LGWR should wait before backing off and retrying the request.
Value should be in centi seconds. == > I Don't think there is really any hard fast rule for a value - at default (0) it will not timeout.
A value representing a few seconds seems reasonable - if LGWR has been stuck for say 5 seconds waiting it seems reasonable guess it is not going to get the lock.
The param just causes it to abort the current attempt and retry If you want to play safe can start with a higher value then decrease later.
A higher value will just mean more sessions blocked for longer in case of the deadlock situation.
500 Seems reasonable , but I have no data to base it on.
There should be a statistic "ADG parselock X get attempts" If it gets set too small that value would likely increase a lot due to keep timing out and retrying.
This is a dynamic parameter
Follow option (1) .
change the cursor_sharing to force on ADG
If issue re-appears then follow option (2) as below
Please set "_adg_parselock_timeout" to 500 == >
SQL > alter system set "_adg_parselock_timeout"=500 scope=both sid='*';
简单翻译如下：
1、将cursor_sharing 参数改成FORCE
2、将 "_adg_parselock_timeout" 设置为500
SQL > alter system set "_adg_parselock_timeout"=500 scope=both sid='*';
