Block corruption on BW table ./BIC/B0000367000

Can this BW partition table ./BIC/B0000367000 be re-created since it has 2 bad blocks
And if so, how?

you will need to ask your BW functional. He knows what`s inside this table and he knows if it can be re-generated easily.

  • Data Block Corruption

    I'm on 9i R2 Patch 7 on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003.
    How do you fix data block corruption in a Table?
    Is the some way to retrieve the data from the Table drop it then recreate and reimport the data?
    or do you have to succumb with restoring the Database from the last known good backup?

    Hey, you can do the BMR (Block Media Recovery).
    Since block corruption is to few subsets of blocks, i.e. a single table, you dont need to restore from the previous valid backup, you can simply do the following to achieve BMR.
    Connect to rman and run the following:
    run{ backup validate database};
    Once the above commend is finishes, exit from RMAN and connect to the database as / as sysdba and use the following view to know the details required for BMR.
    select * from V$backup_corruption;
    The above queries gives you file# and block# information. Once you have the information do the BMR using following command at the RMAN prompt:
    run {blockrecover datafile # block #};
    # : indicated the datafile number and block number from the above view.
    Let me know if you have any further issues.
    You can also use view V$DATABASE_BLOCK_CORRUPTION to view the file# and corrupted blocks information.

  • How create data block corruption for test DBMS_REPAIR

    Hello to all
    I wanna create data block corruption in a table for testing Dbms_repair
    is it possible ? if yes please say to me how I can do it ,by example please
    thanks

    thank you so much that link was helpful (specially it's last respond)
    I could create data block corruption and I tested DBMS_REPAIR and RMAN for data block recovery
    but now I got head spin that if we have rman backup from database so using dbms_repair is what for?
    while we can recover corrupted data blocks
    please guide me
    thanks

  • ORA-01578: ORACLE data block corrupted on tables in sysaux tablespace

    Dear Experts,
    From the alert log file we noticed data block corruptions on one of our datafiles. After further investigation, we realized that the corruptions were on 3 of the AWR related tables in the SYSAUX tablespace:
    1. WRH$_LIBRARYCACHE
    2. WRH$_TEMPSTATXS
    3. WRI$_ALERT_OUTSTANDING
    The bad news is that we may not have a valid rman backup to do the recovery due to the retention policy - RECOVERY WINDOW OF 2 DAYS. Since this is a development database with limited monitoring, we did not discover the corruption until 6 days later. The issue happened about 6 days ago (about Christmas time).
    So, what are our recovery options? Can someone advice? We are thinking about drop and recreate the 3 affected v$WR* tables, but not quite sure about the impact to the system if we drop and recreate the 3 objects. Did someone experience this type of recovery. If you did, what are your approaches?
    We are running oracle 10.2.0.3 version.
    I greatly appreciate your input and suggestion. Thanks!!!

    as long as you have a backup of ur database before christmas, you can use the " MAXDAYS " cmd to get ur backup working so long as you have not used delete obsolote....had a same sistuation....where i had a backup and trying to restore it ...kept saying no valid backup...after going thru some stuff...found the MAXDAYS cmd to use my backup...here is an example ...

  • Need advice on ORA-01578: ORACLE data block corrupted

    We have a development database server version- 10.2.0.3 with materialized views refresh as complete every morning. Yesterday we had a power failure and the server went down and database was shutdown unexpectedly.
    When we restarted the database after the server restarted, we found some of the datablocks got corrupted . Following were the exceptions that we saw in the alert.log.
    Errors in file /i01_01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/admin/orcl9/bdump/orcl9_smon_7547.trc:

    INVENTORY_TXN
    TABLE
    where " INVENTORY_TXN " is a materialized view that was using the block that got corrupted. I can always recreate the MV by dropping and recreating it. Will it solve the problem???
    If not, how can I recover/repair the block.???
    Can anyone advice on this. Thanks very much in advance.

    To recover a corrupted block,the best way out is to use Blockrecover command of RMAN. So you would need RmAN backup to perform the operation.But first ypu you need to ensure that this is a persistent error or not? Is this error is coming repeatedly or just once it happened?

  • BLOCK CORRUPTION (ORA-1578) 처리 (ORACLE 8I NEW FEATURE)

    제품 : ORACLE SERVER
    작성날짜 : 2002-05-31
    BLOCK CORRUPTION (ORA-1578) 처리 (ORACLE 8I NEW FEATURE)
    ========================================================
    PURPOSE
    Block Corruption의 처리 방안에 대해 알아본다.
    Problem Description
    block corruption 시 10210, 10211,10231 의 event 를 사용해서
    해당 block 을 skip 할 수도 있지만 V8.1 이상에서는
    dbms_repair.fix_corrupt_blocks ,
    dbms_repair.skip_corrupt_block 를 이용하여
    corrupt가 발생한 block을 detect하고 skip, 또는 repair해주는 방안이
    제시되고 있다.
    Workaround
    Solution Description
    - 먼저 detecting 을 위해 db_block_checking =true 를 init.ora 에 set
    - dbms_repair 의 package 를 사용하는데 이 package 는 dbmsrpr.sql,
    prvtrpr.plb를 수행한다 .
    - sys 로 접속하여 package 를 실행한다.
    다음의 예제를 살펴보자
    T1 테이블에 corrupt 된 block 이 있다고 가정한다.
    SQL> desc t1
    Name Null? Type
    COL1 NOT NULL NUMBER(38)
    COL2 CHAR(512)
    SQL> analyze table t1 validate structure;
    analyze table t1 validate structure
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01498: block check failure - see trace file
    이때 ANALYZE로 부터 발생된 trace file 에 corrupt 된 block 에 3 row 의
    (nrows = 3) data 가 있음을 알수 있다고 가정하자.
    DBMS_REPAIR.ADMIN_TABLES (repair and orphan key)
    ================================================
    ADMIN_TABLES 은 table 을 위한 repair table과,인덱스를 위한 orphan key
    tables을 제공한다.

  • System datafile block corruption - no backups and database in NOARCHIVELOG mode

    Dear All,
    Database version - oracle 11.1 Enterprise
    OS - RHELinux 5.8
    What are the options of recovering from physical block corruption when there are no backup available to perform block media recovery?
    V$DATABASE_BLOCK_CORRUPTION reports two segments corrupted (please see attached image for details).
    1 table in system datafile - sys_fba_barrierscn
    1 index - (applicaiton index)
    What are my options?
    I know there is a possibility that the database will not restart after a shutdown due to corruption in system tablespace.
    Database is in noarchivelog mode. So online backups are not possible and there aren't any full backups either.
    I am thinking of below,
    1. Run dbms_repair with fix_block_corruption. - Still database startup might fail?
    2. Shutdown the database and take offline full backup with RMAN MAXCorrupt option.
    Appreciate your suggestions and advises.
    Thanks
    Stefan

    Thanks Sybrand,
    Agree with your first two suggestions .
    Also scheduled a expdp job tonight. (Only backup like thing they had was a expdp cron, but until today all the large tables were failing due to small undo_retention).
    Yes. Flashback is not used. So hopefully it will not affect the a database restart i guess?
    Related to dbms_repair, I was referring to - http://askdba.org/weblog/2010/08/physical-corruption-ora-1578-part-3/.
    Where DBMS_REPAIR.FIX_CORRUPT_BLOCKS and DBMS_REPAIR.SKIP_CORRUPT_BLOCKS used.
    Which i think will not use any redo.
    Thanks

  • Oracle 11g - How to repair block corruption(on free space) in datafile

    Hi,
    I have a tablesopace with 3 datafiles, out of which one datafile has corrupted block. But no objects or data is affected as the corrupted block os in free space. This was shown in the alert logs.
    Please see below the details:

    Fri Apr 01 14:57:58 2011
    ================================================================
    The corruption is being reported in a free space block of the ORDER_DATA_01.DBF.
    I’ve checked all the tables (and indexes) in this tablespace and none report corruption.
    =====================================================Is there any action I need to take to remove corruption at this point?It is not affected any operation on the database yet.
    What is the best way to do get rid of the corrupt block, without dropping and rebuillding the full tablespace(which is around 6 GB -total of 3 datafiles)
    Thanks a lot

    Can RMAN recover the datablock from this cold backup(which is a week old, the data file was not corrupted then) ?Please note that to do the recovery, you would need the backup and the archivelog files since the backup. Think about what you are asking to do. Its a single block whose recovery you are asking from a week old backup which obviously would be on an much older SCN compared to the rest of the database. How would you make that block consistent with the rest of the datafile. If you don't have archivelog in that db whose block is corrupted, you may forget that block and any data that it might ever had. Also, please read the documentation about the block recovery which explains the requirements very clearly,
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmblock.htm#BRADV89784
    From the above link, 1st point,
    The target database must run in ARCHIVELOG mode and be open or mounted with a current control file.HTH

  • (oracle) block corruption

    Hi Everybody,
    Recently, my site has a development database that encountered block corruption in the system tablespace. I have verified this by using Oracle utility DBVERIFY on the system datafile.
    We have no backup at all for this development database. So database recovery from backup is impossible for us.
    I understand that there's a package called DBMS_REPAIR that can be used to repair corrupted blocks. I tried using this, but the process failed because it could not access the system tablespace (which is corrupted) to create a table used by the package.
    Does anyone know if I could overcome this problem and repair the corrupted blocks on the system tablespace?
    Also, I would like to understand what are the possible causes of block corruption. My site's Oracle Server and databases are installed on Windows 2000 platform.
    Please help answer my queries if you can. Thank you!
    null

    Iam sorry that I have not seen this posting until today .
    When there is a block corruption export will fail with error.
    The best method is to replace this file with a backup file and roll forward.

  • How to check & resolve block corruption if no RMAN backup is there?

    *<<+MY Findings+>>*
    to check block corruption :
    (run command)
    select * from v$database_block_corruption;
    DB_VERIFY is useful in these situations:
    When block corruption is expected;
    Forecast any future problems w.r.t. database file/ block corruption;
    When you restore files from a tape. It will help knowing if the first file pulled from tape is corrupt, instead of spending hours to extract all of them.

    And it did not create any backupset in folder of flash recovery but in Enterprise manager it is showing last backup on 09-may-2008, why ?
    Regards,

    See logical corruption is normally termed as the internal inconsistancy within the block which is not caused by Oracle but by the user.So if you find internal inconsistancy than the best option is to look at the user and ask him to get the values sorted out.If the internal inconsistancy is some thig like index fragmentation sort of things or index entry pointing to a null rowid than they are termed as the logical corruption and they should not impact your normal as he data is already there and there is no issue in reading the block as such.
    The term "corrupted blocks" I would call both in the tables and backup for those data blocks which are unreadable by Oracle which actualy is Physical corruption.
    If i am doing the checking at 2:00 am, does it take more than two hours.I didnt understand this.
    what can we do for Physical corruptionThis will need the block to be recovered with the Block Recover command of RMAN and a good backup.Read about it here,

  • BLOCK CORRUPTION (ORACLE8 에서 ORA-1578 조치방법)

    제품 : ORACLE SERVER
    작성날짜 : 2002-04-26
    BLOCK CORRUPTION (ORACLE8 에서 ORA-1578 조치방법)
    ================================================
    PURPOSE
    본 bulletin 에서는 Oracle8 에서의 data block corruption error
    (ORA-1578) 에 대해서 조치방법을 알아본다.
    BACKGROUND
    ORA-1578 은 data block 에 corruption 이 생긴 경우에 발생한다.
    이 error 는 corruption 이 발생한 곳의 file number 와 block
    number 를 알려준다.
    본 bulletin 에서는 file number 를 'f', block number 를 'b' 로
    지칭하기로 한다. ORA-1578 과 함께 return 되는 file number는
    relative file number 가 아닌 absolute file number 를 의미한다.
    (Oracle8 에서 새롭게 소개된 relative file number 에 대해서는 본
    bulletin 의 6번 항목에서 다루도록 한다.)
    RESOLUTION
    1. 최선의 해결책은 backup 받아둔 file 을 restore 한 후
    recover 작업을 하는 것이다. 이 작업을 위해서는 archive
    log mode 로 운영 중이어야 한다.
    dba_data_files 또는 v$datafile 과 ORA-1578 error 에서
    return 된 absolute file number 를 이용하여 corruption이
    발생한 datafile 의 이름을 알아낼 수 있다.
    Oracle8 에서는, dba_data_files 에 absolute file number
    (file_id) 와 함께 relative file number (relative_fno) 를
    가지고 있다.
    v$datafile 에는 아직 absolute file number (file#) 만을 가진다.
    backup 을 restore 하기 전에 hardware 의 문제를 fix 해야 할
    필요가 있을 수 있다. 만약 corruption 이 disk 불량에 의해
    발생하였다면, backup 받아둔 datafile 을 문제가 없는 disk 에
    restore 하고, startup mount 한 후, 새로운 위치로 datafile
    rename 을 하고 recover 한다.
    만약 해당 datafile 이 system tablespace 에 속하지 않는다면
    offline tablespace recovery 도 가능하다.
    2. backup datafile 을 restore 하고 recover 하지 않을 것이라면
    우선, 어떤 object 에서 corruption 이 발생하였는지 확인해야
    한다.
    다음의 SQL 문을 이용한다.
    SELECT owner, segment_name, segment_type, relative_fno
    FROM dba_extents
    WHERE file_id = f
    AND b BETWEEN block_id AND block_id + blocks - 1 ;
    3. 해당 segment 가 non-data dictionary index라면, 해당 index를
    drop 한 후 재생성한다.
    4. 해당 segment 가 table 이라면, corruption 이 발생한 block 의
    data 는 소실된 것이다.
    5. 만약 해당 table 에 대한 최근의 export dump file이 존재한다면,
    해당 table 을 drop 한 후 import 함으로써 복구할 수 있다.
    최근의 export dump file 이 없거나 이를 export 받을 수 있는
    최근의 backup 이 없다면 다음과 같은 방법을 이용할 수 있다.
    6. corruption 이 발생한 non-clustered table 에서 corrupted
    block 을 access 하지 않고 나머지 data 들을 select 할 수
    있도록 ROWID 를 이용할 수 있다. non-clustered table의 모든
    row 들은 해당 row 의 물리적인 주소를 가리키는 고유한 ROWID를
    갖는다(해당 row가 여러 block에 조각이 나 있다면 첫번째 조각에
    대한 주소). clustered table 인 경우에는 서로 다른 table 의
    data 들이 같은 block 에 존재할 수 있으며, 같은 ROWID 를 가질
    수 있다.
    Oracle 은 index 를 구성하기 위하여 내부적으로 ROWID 를 사용한다.
    따라서 where 절에 ROWID 를 사용하여 select 하면 강제로 range
    scan 를 할 수 있다.
    Oracle8 에서는 이를 위하여 ROWID hint 를 사용할 필요가
    없어졌다.
    ROWID 를 이용하여 table 로부터 data 를 추출하기
    예제로써 ACCT_NO, PERSON, WEEKNO 등의 column 으로 구성된
    SCOTT user의 EXAMPLE 이라는 table 이 있다고 가정한다.
    이때, ORA-1578 "ORACLE data block corrupted (file # 5,
    block # 2) 가
    발생하였다고 가정하자.
    ROWID in Oracle8 :
    Oracle8 에서의 ROWID 는 'OOOOOOFFFBBBBBBSSS' format 을 가진다.
    OOOOOO = data object number
    Oracle7 의 object_id 와는 별도로 segment 의 id 를 갖는다.
    dba_objects 의 data_object_id 에서 확인가능
    FFF = relative file number
    BBBBBB = block number
    SSS = row number
    Oracle8에서의 ROWID 는 absolute file number 가 아닌 relative
    file number 를 갖는다는 점에 주목해야 한다.
    relative file number 는 tablespace 에 대해 상대적이며
    (tablespace마다 첫번째, 두번째, 세번째 datafile 을 가질 수
    있음을 의미) absolute file number 는 전체 database 내에서
    고유하다. 두개의 서로다른 file 들이 동일한 relative file
    number를 가질 수 있다.
    만약 EXAMPLE table 에서 ACCT_NO, ROWID 를 select하면 다음과
    같은 결과가 나올 수 있다.
    ACCT_NO ROWID
    12345 AAAAh3AAGAAACJAAAA
    19283 AAAAh3AAGAAACJAAAB
    22345 AAAAh4AAFAAAAADAAA
    60372 AAAAh4AAFAAAAADAAB
    33456 AAAAh5AAEAAAAIuAAA
    29473 AAAAh5AAEAAAAIuAAB
    이러한 format 을 extended ROWID character format 이라고
    지칭한다.
    extended ROWID 는 number 이므로 substr 함수를 이용하여
    extended ROWID 로부터 일부를 떼어낼 수 없다.
    ROWID 를 생성하기 위해서는 모든 component 를 알아야 한다.
    그런다음, DBMS_ROWID package 의 function 을 이용하여 ROWID 를
    생성할 수 있다.
    function rowid_create(rowid_type IN number,
    object_number IN number,
    relative_fno IN number,
    block_number IN number,
    row_number IN number)
    return rowid;
    pragma RESTRICT_REFERENCES(rowid_create,WNDS,RNDS,WNPS,RNPS);
    -- rowid_type - type (restricted=0/extended=1)
    -- object_number - data object number
    (rowid_object_undefined for )
    -- restricted
    -- relative_fno - relative file number
    -- block_number - block number in this file
    -- file_number - file number in this block
    corruption 이 발생한 block 의 data object number 를 알기
    위해서는 dba_objects 를 조회한다.
    SELECT data_object_id FROM dba_objects
    WHERE owner = 'SCOTT'
    AND object_name = 'EXAMPLE' ;
    DATA_OBJECT_ID
    2168
    우리는 이미, 위에서 사용한 다음의 SQL 에 의해서 relative file
    number 를 알고 있다.
    SELECT owner, segment_name, segment_type, relative_fno
    FROM dba_extents
    WHERE file_id = 5
    AND 2 BETWEEN block_id AND block_id + blocks - 1 ;
    OWNER SEGMENT_NAME SEGMENT_TYPE RELATIVE_F
    SCOTT EXAMPLE TABLE 5
    corruption 이 발생한 block 이 2이므로, block# 2 이전의 access
    가능한 마지막 ROWID 는 block# 1 에 존재한다. 그리고 block# 2
    이후의 access 가능한 첫 ROWID 는 block# 3에 존재한다. block
    안에 몇개의 row number 가 존재할 지 모르므로 row number 0 을
    이용한다.
    이제 corrupted block 이전의 ROWID 와 이후의 ROWID 를 생성할
    준비가 끝났다.
    corrupted block 이전의 ROWID :
    SELECT DBMS_ROWID.ROWID_CREATE(1,2168,5,1,0) FROM example ;
    DBMS_ROWID.ROWID_C
    AAAAh4AAFAAAAABAAA
    corrupted block 이후의 ROWID :
    SELECT DBMS_ROWID.ROWID_CREATE(1,2168,5,3,0) FROM example ;
    DBMS_ROWID.ROWID_C
    AAAAh4AAFAAAAADAAA
    다음으로, EXAMPLE table 과 같은 spec 으로 table 을 하나 만든다.
    CREATE TABLE temp AS SELECT * FROM example WHERE 1=2;
    그리고 corrupted block 이외의 block 에서 data 를 추출하여
    insert 한다.
    INSERT INTO temp SELECT * FROM example
    WHERE ROWID <= 'AAAAh4AAFAAAAABAAA';
    INSERT INTO temp SELECT * FROM example
    WHERE ROWID >= 'AAAAh4AAFAAAAADAAA';
    이후 원본 table 을 drop 하고, TEMP 를 rename 한다.
    7. 만약 data dictionary 에 속하는 table, index 또는 rollback
    segment에 corrupted block 이 발생하였다면 Oracle Support 의
    지원을 받는다.
    8. 일반적으로, ORA-1578 은 hardware 의 문제때문에 유발된다.
    하지만 만약에 ORA-600[3374] 가 발생한다면 memory 상에서
    corruption 이 발생한 경우이다.
    이 경우 database 를 restartup 하면 문제가 해결될 수 있다.

    Hello,
    Please check the link i posted.
    Example: Detecting Corruption
    The CHECK_OBJECT procedure checks the specified object, and populates the repair table with information about corruptions and repair directives. You can optionally specify a range, partition name, or subpartition name when you want to check a portion of an object.
    Validation consists of checking all blocks in the object that have not previously been marked corrupt. For each block, the transaction and data layer portions are checked for self consistency. During CHECK_OBJECT, if a block is encountered that has a corrupt buffer cache header, then that block is skipped.
    The following is an example of executing the CHECK_OBJECT procedure for the scott.dept table.
    SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
    DECLARE num_corrupt INT;
    BEGIN
    num_corrupt := 0;
    DBMS_REPAIR.CHECK_OBJECT (
    SCHEMA_NAME => 'SCOTT',
    OBJECT_NAME => 'DEPT',
    REPAIR_TABLE_NAME => 'REPAIR_TABLE',
    CORRUPT_COUNT => num_corrupt);
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('number corrupt: ' || TO_CHAR (num_corrupt));
    END;
    SQL*Plus outputs the following line, indicating one corruption:
    number corrupt: 1

  • Block corruption problem in alert and rman/dbv no show errors

    Hello, I'm new in Oracle's world. I have one problem with Oracle 10.2.0.4 (RHEL 5.6) x64. Archive redo-log enable

    Yesterday, we detected this error because SQL don't execute.
    The error repeat 47times and there is 6 different file-block combination (4 index of schemas, 1 of sys and ¡2 tables!)
    First, I launched expdp and exp of the one problematic schema. The export was fine, no errors while exporting, but in the alert.log show one block corruption. Should exp and expd show error and stop?
    Next, I used dbv and verify all dbfs. Only show 2 blocks error in two datafiles (indexes).
    Next, I used RMAN:
    A) check database: no error.
    B) validate database: error in two blocks (logical error) and different from the 6 in alert.log. This two blocks are indexes.
    I re-create this two indexes. When i re-create, the block error disappear (not inmediate, suppose that disappear when block was rewrite). Now dbv and rman show no error.
    I have read one note about types of error, other about procedures if db is in archivelog/noarchivelog. Also if object is index or table. But I find anything about auto-repair corrupt blocks in Oracle or why now the 6 block error are solved. I don't know if two tables with two block corrupt lost rows or not.
    Appreciate any help.
    Regards

    Hello Fran. Result of query before rebuild problematic INDEXES:
    SQL> select * from V$database_block_corruption;
    FILE# BLOCK# BLOCKS CORRUPTION_CHANGE# CORRUPTIO
    3 98857 1 390928740 LOGICAL
    9 48632 1 390325900 LOGICAL
    When I ran RMAN first time to check blocks, it filled V$database_block_corruption with two bad blocks. Different from the 6 errors from alert.:
    RMAN> backup validate check logical database;
    Error backing up file 9, block 48632: logical corruption
    Error backing up file 3, block 98857: logical corruption
    I extracted index name from each block and I re-created it. Also, I created a temporary table in tablespace's datafile to fill blocks empty. Problem solved. Rman / dbv show no error.
    I'm searching for similar experiences and found: Re: Data in bad block
    First 6 bad checksum errors in alert.log disappear with any visible problem?
    Can I sure that DB is fine if RMAN and DBV show no errors?
    Thank you very much
