ParallelQuery导致的ORA-04031

一个朋友遇到ORA-04031问题。虽然这个错误是非常常见的，然而这里的Case 也有点让人为之震惊！

上述信息为Rac 节点1的信息，对于节点2，信息也基本类似，这里就不贴了。从日志来看，是p621出异常，根据这一点
我们可以判断为是并行进程出现了异常，接着从下面的ORA-04031错误也可以证实这一点。
ORA-04031: 无法分配 32792 字节的共享内存 (“shared pool”,”unknown object”,”sga heap(2,0)”,”PX msg pool”)

从这个错误来看，可以判断P621进程无法分别32792 byte的内存了。这部分内存是需要为Px msg pool进程分配。

这里首先说说PX msg pool是干什么的？

Px msg pool其实是用于Parallel 操作的。通常情况下这部分内存区域应该是从large pool中分配。然而很多业务系统中
由于设置不到，导致parallel 操作仍然使用shared pool的memory。这一点，我们稍后讨论。

接着我们看后面的日子发现PMON进程都无法获得latch了，然后这个时候系统已经不行了。 很明显这个问题的根源就是前面
的ORA-04031错误，这里我们需要分析下trace，来确认下，为什么进程会报错。

该trace文件（xx1_p485_28873.trc）的内容如下：

可以看到，PX msg pool请求获得32792 byte的内存大小，从什么地方申请呢？ heap 2，也就是shared pool的第2个subpool。

但是却无法分配这么多，以至于报错，下面我们来看下subpool 2的实际情况：
