我们在学习Oracle基础知识的时候会了解到实例恢复(Instance Recovery)或者说崩溃恢复(Crash recovery)的概念,有时候甚至于这2个名词在我们日常的语言中表达同样的意思。
实际上Instance Recovery与Crash Recovery是存在区别的:针对单实例(single instance)或者RAC中所有节点全部崩溃后的恢复,我们称之为Crash Recovery。 而对于RAC中的某一个节点失败,存活节点(surviving instance)试图对失败节点线程上redo做应用的情况,我们称之为Instance Recovery。
不管是Instance Recovery还是Crash Recovery,都由2个部分组成:cache recovery和transaction recovery。
根据官方文档的介绍,Cache Recovery也叫Rolling Forward,就是我们常说的前滚;而Transaction Recovery也叫Rolling Back,就是我们常说的回滚。
前滚:在redo log file中,从目前的start SCN开始,重做后面的已提交之事务。
回滚:rollback未完成(dead transaction)事务。
我的Blog 也有关于这2个概念的说明:

注意上述单实例Crash Recovery到数据库打开的整个过程:
(1). alter database open
(2). Beginning crash recovery of 1 threads
(3). Started redo scan
(4). Completed redo scan
(5). Started redo application at
(6). Completed redo application
(7). Completed crash recovery at
(8). SMON: enabling cache recovery
(9). Successfully onlined Undo Tablespace 1
(10). SMON: enabling tx recovery
(11). Completed: alter database open
从上述步骤中我们可以看到三种恢复名词,即:
(1). crash recovery
(2). cache recovery
(3). tx recovery
这和官方文档所描述的Crash Recovery概念是不一致的,我们现在来理清这几种recovery。
crash recovery包含对redo的scan和application,显然其完成的是Rolling Forward前滚的工作,告警日志中出现的crash recovery等同于官方文档中介绍的”cache recovery”,我们可以将” Completed crash recovery”看做前滚完成的标志。 而tx recovery从字面就可以看出实际上是Transaction Recovery,tx recovery发生在Undo Tablespace online之后(回滚事务的前提是Undo可用),数据完成打开操作之前(“Completed: alter database open”)。注意tx recovery并不要求数据库打开前完成,仅仅是在数据库打开之前由smon启动(“SMON: enabling tx recovery”)。
剩下的唯一的问题是,这里的cache recovery是什么?显然它不是官方文档中所描述的”cache recovery”,几乎没有任何文档介绍存在这样一个recovery操作,这也是本文重点要介绍的。
我们来看另一个演示,这个演示用以说明cache recovery还存在于最普通的不包含Crash Recovery的数据库打开过程中:

因为是clean shutdown,所以这里不存在crash recovery。但这里同样出现了”SMON: enabling cache recovery”,可见cache recovery是每次实例启动instance startup必要执行的一种恢复操作。但问题是,这个恢复操作到底针对何种对象?
实际上cache recovery所要恢复的是rowcache,也就是我们常说的字典缓存(dictionary cache)。关于这个结论,肯定有很多人要问我这样说的依据是什么,对应于这个”cache recovery”的问题,我们很难从google中得到一些启示,因为它和官方文档所描述的”cache recovery-rolling forward”存在重名的关系。
为了证明cache recovery所恢复的是row cache,我们需要一个实证,从正式的系统中得到验证。要做到这一点是比较困难的,我们需要Oracle愿意把整个database open的过程变成慢动作来供我们参考,验证要用到一些调试工具,例如gdb或者dbx。
我们首先将实例启动到mount状态,并对执行startup的LOCAL进程做gdb的breakpoint断点调试:
SQL> shutdown abort;
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount;
ORACLE instance started.
Total System Global Area 1065353216 bytes
Fixed Size 2089336 bytes
Variable Size 486542984 bytes
Database Buffers 570425344 bytes
Redo Buffers 6295552 bytes
Database mounted.
找出LOCAL进程的系统进程号SPID
SQL> select spid from v$process
2 where addr in (
3 select paddr from v$session
4 where sid=(select distinct sid from v$mystat))
5 /
SPID
------------
8326
在实例startup nomount/mount后共享池的library cache就是可用的
SQL> select namespace from v$librarycache where gets!=0;
NAMESPACE
---------------
SQL AREA
TABLE/PROCEDURE
而rowcache则尚未被填充,因为字典缓存来源于自对象(bootstrap$)和字典基表
SQL> select parameter,count,gets from v$rowcache where count!=0;
no rows selected
另开一个terminal窗口,并执行对LOCAL进程8326的gdb breakpoint调试

我们还可以通过v$rowcache_parent视图来了解dictionary cache的情况
SQL> col cache_name for a20
SQL> col keystr for a31
SQL> set linesize 200
SQL> select address,cache_name,existent,lock_mode,saddr,substr(key,1,30) keystr from v$rowcache_parent;
ADDRESS CACHE_NAME E LOCK_MODE SADDR KEYSTR

可以看到持有row cache lock的会话是'000000009BD91328',且该dc_objects对象还处于non-existent状态,换而言之真正装载rowcache的是启动实例的LOCAL服务进程
SQL> select sid,program,event,p1,p2,p3 from v$session where saddr='000000009BD91328';
SID PROGRAM EVENT P1 P2 P3

该进程正在等待db file scattered read,fileid->1,block-378,这些块属于BOOTSTRAP$表
BOOTSTRAP$对象已从rowcache被载入到library cache中
SQL> select kglhdadr,kglnaobj from x$kglob where kglobtyp=2 and kglnaobj not like 'X$%';
KGLHDADR KGLNAOBJ

初步总结:
(1)在数据库正式open前需要恢复字典缓存,这个步骤被称为cache recovery,其实是row cache recovery。与官方文档中描述的”cache recovery”不同,row cache recovery应当是Oracle Internal的叫法。
(2)实际执行row cache recovery的不是SMON进程,而是启动实例的服务进程
