本文深入分析了Oracle数据库中遇到的Private strand flush not complete错误，包括其症状、原因、解决方法和相关思考。重点阐述了在高并发环境中数据库系统的工作原理、redo流程、参数设置和优化策略，提供了具体的SQL命令调整示例。

1. 检查告警日志发现Private strand flush not complete

报错如下：

Mon May 23 12:32:34 2016

Thread 1 cannot allocate new log, sequence 6726

Private strand flush not complete

Current log# 1 seq# 6725 mem# 0: /home/oracle/app/oracle/oradata/qianlong/redo01.log

Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 6726 (LGWR switch)

Current log# 2 seq# 6726 mem# 0: /home/oracle/app/oracle/oradata/qianlong/redo02.log

下面是自己在网上收集的资料，一起分析分析。

2. Meatlink对此的描述

Meatlink 对此的描述(Doc ID 372557.1)

Oracle Database - Enterprise Edition - Version 10.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.3 [Release 10.2 to 11.2]

Information in this document applies to any platform.

Private strand flush not complete

Symptoms

"Private strand flush not complete" messages are being populated to the alert log, example:

Mon May 23 12:32:34 2016

Thread 1 cannot allocate new log, sequence 6726

Private strand flush not complete

Current log# 1 seq# 6725 mem# 0: /home/oracle/app/oracle/oradata/qianlong/redo01.log

Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 6726 (LGWR switch)

Current log# 2 seq# 6726 mem# 0: /home/oracle/app/oracle/oradata/qianlong/redo02.log

Changes

When you switch logs all private strands have to be flushed to the current log before the switch is allowed to proceed.

----->切换日值前，所有的private strands必须写入到当前的redo logfile

Cause

The message means that we haven't completed writing all the redo information to the log when we are trying to switch. It is similar in nature to a "checkpoint not complete" except that is only involves the redo being written to the log. The log switch can not occur until all of the redo has been written.

---->该消息意味着在日志切换前我们不能够完整的写出redo到日志文件。其本质类似于checkpoint not complete等待事件。所不同的是它仅仅涉及到正在被写入到日志的redo，a "strand" is new terminology for 10g and it deals with latches for redo . ----> strand是一个用于处理redo latch的新术语

Strands are a mechanism to allow multiple allocation latches for processes to write redo more efficiently in the redo buffer and is related to the log_parallelism parameter present in 9i.

The concept of a strand is to ensure that the redo generation rate for an instance is optimal and that when there is some kind of redo contention then the number of strands is dynamically adjusted to compensate.

----->最大的作用是用于确保redo产生的速率达到最佳，并在出现相关redo竞争的时候动态调整strand的值进行补偿

The initial allocation for the number of strands depends on the number of CPU's and is started with 2 strands with one strand for active redo generation.

For large scale enterprise systems the amount of redo generation is large and hence these strands are *made active* as and when the foregrounds encounter this redo contention (allocated latch related contention) when this concept of dynamic strands comes into play.

There is always shared strands and a number of private strands .

Oracle 10g has some major changes in the mechanisms for redo (and undo), which seem to be aimed at reducing contention.

----->在10g中有很大的变化，最主要的目的还是为了减少竞争

Instead of redo being recorded in real time, it can be recorded 'privately' and pumped into the redo log buffer on commit.

Similarly the undo can be generated as 'in memory undo' and applied in bulk. This affect the memory used for redo management and the possibility to flush it in pieces. The message you get is related to internal Cache Redo File management.

...You can disregard these messages as normal messages. ----->可以当作常规消息被忽略

Solution

These messages are not a cause for concern unless there is a significant time gap between the "cannot allocate new log" message and the "advanced to log sequence" message. ------->如果"cannot allocate new log" 与"advanced to log sequence"有明显的时间间隔，应考虑增加db_writer_processes

Increasing the value for db_writer_processes can in some situations help to avoid the message from being generated. Why, because one of the DBWR main function is to keep the buffer cache clean by writing out dirty buffer blocks. So having multiple db_writer_processes should be able to produce a higher throughput.

Finally, these messages have also been seen when there are issues with the storage side or network for the archive log destination, as this leads to delay or hang in LGWR switch.

3. 延伸思考

在高并发，多用户的数据库系统中，所有客户端进程都是通过向redo log buffer写入重做数据来确保数据的完整性与一致性。对于redo log buffer的管理，则通过latch的机制来实现。和redo相关的latch主要有两个，一个是redo allocation latch，一个是redo copy latch。前者负责将为新的redo在redo log buffer中分配空间，后者则是pga中的redo复制到redo log buffer。

下面是描述一下redo产生的流程：

用户进程产生redo(位于PGA中)====>服务器进程获取Redo Copy latch(存在多个取决于CPU_COUNT*2)====>服务进程获取redo allocation latch(仅1个)====>分配log buffer====>释放redo allocation latch====>将Redo Entry写入Log Buffer====>释放Redo Copy latch

如前文Doc ID 372557.1所述，Oracle 9.2之后引入了log_parallelism机制，当该参数的值大于1的时候，数据库会分配多个共享的redo log buffer，也就是说redo log buffer被再次细分，使得每个共享的buffer使用独立的redo allocation latch来进行保护以提高redo的并发性。

这些个共享的redo log buffer就被称之为 shared strand。在10gR2以后了又多出了一个private strand，这个是从shared pool中分配而不是先前的log buffer。private strand为大量小的私有内存，通常每个大小在64kb-128kb左右，被独立的redo allocation latch所保护。每个特定的小事务会绑定到独立且空闲的private redolog strand，即绑定到一个活动事务。在这种新机制引入后，一旦用户进程申请到private strand，redo不再保存的pga中，因此不再需要redo copy latch这个过程。

如果新事务申请不到private strand的redo allocation latch，则会继续遵循旧的redo buffer机制，申请写入shared strand中。由于新机制的引入，相应的redo的产生发生了一些变化，如下：

新事务开始====>申请private strand的redo allocation latch(申请失败则申请shared strand的redo allocation latch)====>在private strand中生产redo Entry====>flush/commit====>申请redo copy latch====>LGWR将redo entry批量写入log File====>释放redo copy latch====>释放Private strand的redo allocation latch

对于这个新的机制，在进行redo被写出到logfile时，LGWR需要将shared strand与private strand的内容写出。当redo flush发生时，所有的publicredo allocation latch需要被获取，所有的public strands的redo copy latch需要被检查，所有包含活动事务的private strands需要被持有。
