halted everything occasionally. We plugged the other power supply in, and

Hi Scott/All,
We have been able to identify the root cause for the issues we had with EMC
during the last 2 weeks. The root cause was an issue with EMC PowerPath in a SAN
environment where it was not able to resolve alternate paths. We are upgrading
from PowerPath Version 1.3 to Version 2.0

We ran into a similar issue on 8.1.6.0 for Solaris 32bit and Veritas
Volumes. Oracle noted this as a bug in their release and
suggest go to
8.1.6.3

We are testing this now. So far it seems to work.

Hi,
which background process had the problem?
because if lgwr, it already write in sync mode ...

Hi Scott,
Recently we had issues with EMC. Last week we started getting IO timeout on
one of our frames followed by files being accessed disappearing. We lost
controlfiles, redo log files and library files. EMC hasn't been able to tell us
why it happended. I would like to hear about
Which filesystem/volume manager are you using, if any?
That is potentially where you would want to look if the async write
queue is getting backed up. Just shutting off async is a terrible
suggestion from EMC. I am suprised at them.

Getting an error means having i/o problems. Disabling async_io and
increasing slaves means stopping the error but does not mean any performance
gain since there are io issues. I think they have to find and trace the time
out errors and try to fix them.
Are you using raw or cooked (i assume

I didn't think to mention the process. It is always the ckpt (checkpoint)
background process that reports the problem. The database goes down with an
ORA-27062.

Are you running Veritas as well? There are (I belive still outstanding)
bugs with VXFS/VXVM on Oracle which cause these errors. Also, are you
seeing high latency right times or experiencing 'hangs' in IO to your
symmetrix? I've also seen faulty fiber cabling cause this problem

Claudio,
All writes in Oracle are synchronous, they are just fired asynchronously. So
even the DBWR writes synchronously.
So individual writes are synchronously, they are just fired off
asynchronously.

My dbw uses asynchronous writes I'm writing to qio files, which
means that they bypass buffer cache,
It seems silly to get into a semantic argument over this. My point was
that Oracle in fact does use asynchronous io as far as the POSIX
definition of aio. Just because the ocntrolling thread looks in on the
status of the aiocb when it is signaled upon completion doesn't make it
any less
