11.2.0.3 ASM实例出现ORA-4031错误导致数据库归档失败

环境：
平台:RedHat EnterPrise 5.8 X86_X64
数据库:Oracle EnterPrise 11.2.0.3
集群软件:Oracle grid 11.2.0.3

故障现象：
数据库出现了归档失败，其中有一个节点的实例出现HANG死的状况。

日志信息如下:

分析:
   由于归档失败发生在ASM磁盘上，首先检查ASM磁盘空间以及DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE，ASM磁盘空间是足够的，而且由于只有一个节点出现出现了无法归档的问题，也可以排除是空间不足造成的。确认两个节点的DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE参数设置都是0，基本上可以判断问题和当前节点的ASM实例状态不正常有关。

检查ASM实例的错误信息：

 Fri Feb 28 19:41:23 2014

当前节点ASM实例出现了的这个信息，说明报错发生在实例2上：

 果然实例2上的ASM出现了大量ORA-4031错误。检查ASM启动的参数配置：

调整及建议：
当前ASM实例使用默认的MEMORY_TARGET配置，分配大小大约是400M，根据Oracle的MOS文章：ASM Shared Pool (ORA-4031) [ID 437924.1]，在11.2.0.3中，Oracle增加了ASM实例所允许的默认进程数PROCESSES，但是默认的MEMORY_TARGET参数没有增加。
根据Oracle的建议，11.2.0.3的MEMORY_TARGET至少应该设置到1536M，而MEMORY_MAX_TARGET设置为4096M。

SQL alter system set memory_max_target=4096m scope=spfile;

SQL alter system set memory_target=1536m scope=spfile;

对于当前的情况，如果短时间内无法重启DB和ASM实例，可以在问题节点配置一个本地归档路径，设置目标路径为本地磁盘，从而避免归档无法完成而导致的实例HANG死。
