案例:latch: cache buffers chains event tuning

前两天对oracle数据库(single instance)进行了迁移升级从10.2.0.4 升到11.2.0.3,有一个项目迁完后第二天,cpu负载升到了130更高(16cpus). 向用户询问后使用上没有改变,平时就几个人使用,而该用户活动会话就有100多个。最在等待CBC latch. 怀疑是执行计划发生了改变。

果然执行计划发生了改变。在NL join 中增加了SORT ORDER BY STOPKEY ,并发现两次关连CMS_ENTITY表都是FTS(full table scan),些表有8W+记录,居然没任何索引。

cms@PORA40>alter table CMS_ENTITY add constraint pk_CMS_ENTITY primary key (entity_id);

显然又都有了新改变。最主要的是11g现在变的可以接受了。10G 的变的没以前好了。因为这台机器上有一堆的小项目,调optimizer_features_enable是不想要的。那能不能让11g也用上10g刚才的执行计划呢? 去掉hint 试试

  FROM (  SELECT 
                e.entity_desc, e.entity_url, n.news_content
            FROM cms_entity e, cms_news n
           WHERE     n.entity_id = e.entity_id
                 AND e.ENTITY_DESC LIKE '%%'
                 AND e.ENTITY_CATEGORY LIKE '%310003617%'
        ORDER BY e.entity_id DESC)
 WHERE ROWNUM <= 100

可以看到这个执行计划相对刚才的更好些,随然sql profile,outlines, baselines可以固定执行计划,可惜的是这些sql全是字面常量每次也都是hard parse, 也不希望改cursor_sharing ,看到负载降到了2,最主要的是应用程序早就N年没人接了,所以程序不能动,也就先调到上一步。如果有个参数可以忽略指定的hint就好了。有个隐藏参数_optimizer_ignore_hints 在解析时会忽略所有hint(不含递归SQL),可以在instance,session,sql 级指定。

cms@PORA40>alter session set "_optimizer_ignore_hints"=true;
Session altered.

cms@PORA40>explain plan for SELECT *
  2     FROM (  SELECT /*+FIRST_ROWS*/
  3                   e.entity_desc, e.entity_url, n.news_content
  4               FROM cms_entity e, cms_news n
  5              WHERE     n.entity_id = e.entity_id
  6                    AND e.ENTITY_DESC LIKE '%%'
  7                    AND e.ENTITY_CATEGORY LIKE '%310003617%'
  8           ORDER BY e.entity_id DESC)
  9    WHERE ROWNUM <= 100;

Explained.

cms@PORA40>select * from table(dbms_xplan.display);

Summary:

当出现了CBC latch,通常是因为热块引起,可以参考hot block tunning的文章,检查对象上是否产生了无用的一致读。
升级前有必要先测试
程序代码中不是迫不得已不要使用hint
_optimizer_ignore_hints 隐藏参数可以忽略sql hint,但一定要注意测试,会有可能导致sql profile,baselines,outlines 失效,比如awr ,或系统view sql中的hint 被ignore, 降低查询。
