标签归档：SCN Compatibility

最近有不少朋友咨询关于2019年6月23日之前数据库scn，数据库是否要升级或者打补丁等问题，这里对相关问题做一个汇总。
1. 是否一定要升级或者打补丁
不一定，以下几种情况可以不用处理
1) 数据库版本11.1.0.7.20+ /11.2.0.3.9+ /11.2.0.4+版本已经包含了该补丁，无需处理
2) 数据库版本全部低于1)中数据库版本
3) 你的数据库环境中不存在1和2中数据库dblink访问
4) 你的数据库环境中有1和2中的数据库dblink访问,但是通过通过dbms_scn设置,不让1中的数据库版本scn compatibility改变(都保持为1)

2. 到了2019年6月23日之后,数据库的scn发生什么改变
简单的说就是数据库每秒可以使用的scn变大了,距离天花板的scn更加大,出现数据库scn用完的概率大大降低

--compat            -- SCN compatibility value
--headroom_in_scn   -- Difference between current SCN and RSL
--headroom_in_sec   -- number of seconds it would take to reachRSL

这里大概演示了数据库scn compatibility变化带来的相关变化,这里可以看出来每秒

3. 如何禁用/启用scn compatibility自动升级

SQL>  begin dbms_scn.DisableAutoRollover; end;
  2   /

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

SQL> declare
  2   EFFECTIVE_AUTO_ROLLOVER_TS date;
  3   TARGET_COMPAT number;
  4   IS_ENABLED boolean;
  5   begin
  6    dbms_scn.GETSCNAUTOROLLOVERPARAMS(EFFECTIVE_AUTO_ROLLOVER_TS,TARGET_COMPAT,IS_ENABLED);
  7    dbms_output.put_line('EFFECTIVE_AUTO_ROLLOVER_TS='||to_char(EFFECTIVE_AUTO_ROLLOVER_TS,'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss'));
  8    dbms_output.put_line('TARGET_COMPAT=' || TARGET_COMPAT);
  9   if(IS_ENABLED)then
 10    dbms_output.put_line('IS_ENABLED IS TURE'); 
 11   else  
 12    dbms_output.put_line('IS_ENABLED IS FALSE'); 
 13   end if;
 14   end;
 15   /
EFFECTIVE_AUTO_ROLLOVER_TS=2019-06-23 00:00:00

IS_ENABLED IS FALSE
