Oracle9i Database Error Messages Release 2 (9.2) Part Number A96525-01 |
|
Cause: An invalid NLS initialization parameter was specified.
Action: Check the syntax and spelling of the parameter. Enter the correct parameter into the initialization parameter file.
Cause: The character set specified in the CREATE DATABASE command does not exist on the system.
Action: Refer to your Oracle operating system-specific documentation for more information about character sets on the system. Use a valid character set in the CREATE DATABASE command.
Cause: An invalid parameter or value was entered in the NLS parameter string in a SQL function.
Action: Check the syntax of the function and the parameters. Enter the command again using the correct syntax and valid values.
Cause: An attempt was made to use the CONVERT function to convert between two character sets, and the requested conversion is not possible due to unavailability of one or both character sets.
Action: Use character sets available on the system in the CONVERT function.
Cause: One of the following:
Action: Strings declared with NCHAR or NCHAR VARYING do not interoperate with strings declared with CHAR or VARCHAR2. Use TRANSLATE() function to explicitly convert one to the other.
Cause: There are two possible causes: Either an attempt was made to issue an ALTER SESSION
statement with an invalid NLS parameter or value; or the NLS_LANG
environment variable contains an invalid language, territory, or character set.
Action: Check the syntax of the ALTER SESSION
statement and the NLS parameter, correct the syntax and retry the statement, or specify correct values in the NLS_LANG
environment variable. For more information about the syntax of the ALTER SESSION
statement, see the Oracle9i SQL Reference.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a database on an ASCII-based machine using an EBCDIC-based character set or vice versa. This is not permitted.
Action: Create the database using either ASCII-based or EBCDIC-based character sets, depending on what is supported by the hardware. Refer to your Oracle operating system-specific documentation for more information about the type of character set supported.
Cause: This is an internal error.
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
Cause: This is an internal error.
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
Cause: This is an internal error.
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
Cause: The character set specified when creating the control file is unknown.
Action: Specify a known character set.
Cause: It is not allowed to create a control file on a native ASCII-based machine using an EBCDIC-based character set, and vice versa.
Action: Create the correct control file for machine and character set.
Cause: When you ALTER DATABASE ... CHARACTER SET
, the new character set must be a superset of the old character set. For example, WE8ISO8859P1 is not a superset of the WE8DEC.
Action: Specify a superset character set.
Cause: When character set conversion happens between CHAR and NCHAR either implicitly or explicitly, some characters are lost due to no mapping characters in the destination character set.
Action: Make sure all the characters can be mapped to destination character set or set NLS_NCHAR_CONV_EXCP
to false
.
Cause: Only UTF8 and AL16UTF16 are allowed to be used as the national character set.
Action: Ensure that the specified national character set is valid.
Cause: The character set specified is not allowed for this operation or is invalid.
Action: Ensure that the specified character set is valid.
Cause: CLOB
data changes representation to Unicode when converting to a multibyte character set and must be migrated.
Action: Remove CLOB
data as listed in the alert file. CLOB
data can be migrated by methods such as export/import.
Cause: NCLOB
data changes representation to Unicode when converting to a multibyte character set and must be migrated.
Action: Remove NCLOB
data as listed in the alert file. NCLOB data can be migrated by methods such as export/import.
Cause: This command can only be run when connecting as user SYS
.
Action: Connect as user SYS
to run this command.
Cause: This command can only be run when the database is in RESTRICTED mode.
Action: Ensure that the system is in RESTRICTED mode.
Cause: This command can only be run when the database is in EXCLUSIVE mode.
Action: Ensure that the system is in EXCLUSIVE mode.
Cause: This command can only be run when there are no other sessions active.
Action: Ensure there are no other connections to the database.
Cause: Load on the system is too high to perform parallel queries.
Action: Re-execute serially or wait until the system load is reduced.
Cause: A parallel query server reached an exception condition.
Action: Check the following error message for the cause.
Cause: A parallel query server lost contact with the foreground (coordinator) process/thread.
Action: Check your system for anomalies and reissue the statement. If this error persists, then contact Oracle Support Services.

Cause: An attempt was made to set SCAN_INSTANCES
or CACHE_INSTANCES
using the ALTER SYSTEM
statement to a value larger than the number of available instances.
Action: See the accompanying message for the current allowable maximum value, or set SCAN_INSTANCES / CACHE_INSTANCES to ALL.
Cause: An attempt was made to set SCAN_INSTANCES
or CACHE_INSTANCES
using the ALTER SYSTEM
statement while the database was mounted in exclusive mode.
Action: SCAN_INSTANCES / CACHE_INSTANCES may not be set unless running Oracle9i Real Application Clusters mounted in CLUSTER_DATABASE mode.
Cause: An attempt was made to set the PARALLEL_MAX_SERVERS parameter to a value higher than the maximum allowed by the system.
Action: Set PARALLEL_MAX_SERVERS to a value less than or equal to the maximum specified in the accompanying message and retry.
Cause: An attempt was made to set the PARALLEL_MIN_SERVERS parameter to a value higher than PARALLEL_MAX_SERVERS.
Action: Set PARALLEL_MIN_SERVERS to a value less than or equal to PARALLEL_MAX_SERVERS (indicated in the accompanying message) and retry.
Cause: PARALLEL
was specified more than once, NOPARALLEL
was specified more than once, or both PARALLEL
and NOPARALLEL
were specified in a CREATE TABLE
, CLUSTER
, or INDEX
or in an ALTER TABLE
or CLUSTER
statement, or in a RECOVER
command.

Action: Specify a positive integer or DEFAULT for the INSTANCES option within a PARALLEL clause.
Cause: DEGREE or INSTANCES was specified more than once within a PARALLEL clause.
Action: Specify each desired PARALLEL clause option only once.
Cause: The PARALLEL
keyword was used alone or DEGREE DEFAULT
was specified in the PARALLEL
clause of an ALTER DATABASE RECOVER
statement.

Action: To allow results to be returned by successfully allocated slaves, execute ALTER SESSION SET ALLOW_PARTIAL_SN_RESULTS=TRUE statement, or check parameters of instances.
Cause: The coordinator's instance must be a member of the PARALLEL_INSTANCE_GROUP in which this operation will be run.
Action: Either add the coordinator's instance to the current PARALLEL_INSTANCE_GROUP or change PARALLEL_INSTANCE_GROUP.
Cause: The instance group name is too long.
Action: Either shorten the name or get rid of the instance group.
Cause: There must be at least one instance in the GLOBAL_VIEW_ADMIN_GROUP in order to execute a query on global views.

Action: Correct the statement and re-enter it.
Cause: Partition bound list contained more elements than there are partitioning columns.
Action: Ensure that the number of elements in partition bound list is equal to the number of partitioning columns of the table or index.
Cause: Partition bound list contained fewer elements than there are partitioning columns.
Action: Ensure that the number of elements in partition bound list is equal to the number of partitioning columns of the table or index.
Cause: Partition bound list contained an element of invalid type (that is, not a number, non-empty string, datetime or interval literal, or MAXVALUE).
Action: Ensure that all elements of partition bound list are of valid type.
Cause: Unexpected option was encountered while parsing physical attributes of a table partition; valid options for range or composite range partitions are INITRANS, MAXTRANS, TABLESPACE, STORAGE, PCTFREE, and PCTUSED; only TABLESPACE may be specified for hash partitions.
Action: Remove invalid option(s) from the list of physical attributes of a table partition.
Cause: In the VALUES LESS THAN clause for the highest (last) partition of a GLOBAL index, MAXVALUE must be specified for all columns.
Action: Ensure that VALUES LESS THAN clause for the last partition of a GLOBAL index has MAXVALUE specified for all columns.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a LOCAL partitioned cluster index, which is currently illegal.
Action: Remove LOCAL along with partition_descriptions, if any, from the CREATE INDEX statement.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a GLOBAL partitioned cluster index, which is currently illegal.
Action: Remove PARTITION BY RANGE clause along with partition_descriptions from the CREATE INDEX statement.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a LOCAL partitioned index with a number of partitions which is different from that of the underlying table.
Action: Correct the CREATE INDEX statement to specify a correct number of partitions.
Cause: PARTITION option was encountered while parsing a definition of a materialized view or a materialized view log.
Action: Ensure that a definition of a MATERIALIZED VIEW does not include invalid options.
Cause: Definition of a table contained both PARTITION and CLUSTER clauses which is illegal.
Action: Remove one of the conflicting clauses.
Cause: CREATE TABLE statement contained more than one PARTITION clause.
Action: Specify PARTITION option at most once.
Cause: Keyword AT or VALUES is missing.
Action: Supply missing keyword.
Cause: The partitioning columns of a global partitioned index did not contain a prefix of the index's key columns.
Action: Ensure that the GLOBAL partitioned index being created is prefixed and retry the operation.
Cause: Partitioning column specified in CREATE TABLE statement is not one of columns of the table being created.
Action: Ensure that all columns in the partitioning column list are columns of the table being created.
Cause: Partitioning column specified by the user was of type LONG or LONG RAW, which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that no partitioning column is of type LONG or LONG RAW.
Cause: High bound of the partition whose number (partitions are numbered starting with 1) is displayed in this message did not collate lower than that of the following partition, which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that high bound of every partition (except for the last one) collates lower than that of a following partition.
Cause: Length of partition bound value is longer than that of the corresponding partitioning column.
Action: Ensure that lengths of high bound values do not exceed those of corresponding partitioning columns.
Cause: High bound of the partition whose name (explicitly specified by the user) is displayed in this message did not collate lower than that of the following partition, which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that high bound of every partition (except for the last one) collates lower than that of a following partition.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a GLOBAL non-prefixed partitioned index which is illegal.
Action: If a non-prefixed index is desired, it must be created as LOCAL; otherwise, correct the list of key and/or partitioning columns to ensure that the index is prefixed. Then retry the operation.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a UNIQUE partitioned index whose partitioning columns do not form a subset of its key columns which is illegal.
Action: If you want to create an index whose partitioning columns do not form a subset of its key columns, it must be created as non-UNIQUE; otherwise, correct the list of key and/or partitioning columns to ensure that the index's partitioning columns form a subset of its key columns.
Cause: While parsing an ALTER {TABLE|INDEX} SPLIT PARTITION statement, partition_description of a resulting partition was found to contain VALUES LESS THAN clause which is illegal.
Action: Remove VALUES LESS THAN clause from the description(s) of partitions resulting from splitting an existing table or index partition.
Cause: While parsing an ALTER {TABLE|INDEX} MODIFY PARTITION, ALTER TABLE MOVE PARTITION, or ALTER INDEX REBUILD PARTITION statement, description of new physical attributes of the partition being moved, modified, or rebuilt was found to contain VALUES LESS THAN clause which is illegal.
Action: Remove VALUES LESS THAN clause from the description of new attributes of the partition being moved, modified, or rebuilt.
Cause: ALTER TABLE ADD PARTITION contained descriptions of more than one partition to be added.
Action: Ensure that the statement contains exactly one partition definition and that it does not contain any commas.
Cause: ALTER TABLE MOVE PARTITION contained descriptions of more than one partition to be moved.
Action: Ensure that the statement describes exactly one partition to be moved and that it does not contain any commas.
Cause: ALTER TABLE|INDEX MODIFY PARTITION contained descriptions of more than one partition to be modified.
Action: Ensure that the statement describes exactly one partition to be modified and that it does not contain any commas.
Cause: ALTER TABLE|INDEX SPLIT PARTITION did not contain descriptions of exactly two new partitions into which an existing table or index partition was to be split.
Action: Ensure that the statement describes exactly two partition into which an existing partition is to be split.
Cause: ALTER TABLE or ALTER INDEX statement attempted to combine a RENAME operation with some other operation which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that RENAME operation is the sole operation specified in ALTER TABLE or ALTER INDEX statement.
Cause: The ALTER TABLE or ALTER INDEX statement attempted to combine a partition maintenance operation (for example, MOVE PARTITION) with some other operation (for example, ADD PARTITION or PCTFREE) which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that a partition maintenance operation is the sole operation specified in an ALTER TABLE or ALTER INDEX statement; operations other than those dealing with partitions, default attributes of partitioned tables/indices, or specifying that a table be renamed (ALTER TABLE RENAME) can be combined.
Cause: An option other than PCTFREE, PCTUSED, INITRANS, MAXTRANS, STORAGE, BACKUP, ALLOCATE EXTENT, or DEALLOCATE UNUSED was specified in an ALTER TABLE MODIFY PARTITION statement for a range or composite range partition.
Action: Specify only legal options.
Cause: An option other than INITRANS, MAXTRANS, STORAGE, or DEALLOCATE UNUSED was specified in an ALTER INDEX MODIFY PARTITION statement.
Action: Specify only legal options.
Cause: An option other than PCTFREE, PCTUSED, INITRANS, MAXTRANS, STORAGE, or BACKUP was specified in an ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW statement.
Action: Specify only legal options.
Cause: An attempt was made to use partition-extended table name syntax in illegal context (that is, not in FROM-clause or INSERT, DELETE, or UPDATE statement).
Action: Avoid use of partition-extended table name in contexts other those mentioned above.
Cause: Certain attributes of objects (for example, tables) may be specified at creation time, but may not be modified using ALTER statement. Unfortunately, user specified one of such attributes.
Action: Ensure that ALTER statement specifies new values only for attributes which may be changed once an object has been created.
Cause: Name of the partition to be truncated may be followed by DROP STORAGE or REUSE STORAGE.
Action: Ensure that no options besides DROP STORAGE or REUSE STORAGE are specified with ALTER TABLE TRUNCATE PARTITION.
Cause: ALTER INDEX statement contained REBUILD keyword following some index attributes (for example, INITRANS).
Action: Ensure that keyword REBUILD immediately follows the name of the index being altered.
Cause: The sum of PCTUSED and PCTFREE for a partition whose number (partitions are numbered starting with 1) is displayed in this message exceeds 100. Note that if PCTUSED and/or PCTFREE values for this partition were not specified explicitly, default values for the partitioned table or index would be used. If, in turn, default PCTUSED and/or PCTFREE values for the partitioned table or index were not specified, system defaults would be used.
Action: Ensure that a sum of PCTUSED and PCTFREE for the partition does not exceed 100.
Cause: The sum of PCTUSED and PCTFREE for a partition whose name (explicitly specified by the user) is displayed in this message exceeds 100. Note that if PCTUSED and/or PCTFREE values for this partition were not specified explicitly, default values for the partitioned table or index would be used. If, in turn, default PCTUSED and/or PCTFREE values for the partitioned table or index were not specified, system defaults would be used.
Action: Ensure that a sum of PCTUSED and PCTFREE for the partition does not exceed 100.
Cause: Value of INITRANS was found to be greater than that of MAXTRANS for a partition whose number (partitions are numbered starting with 1) is displayed in this message. Note that if INITRANS and/or MAXTRANS values for this partition were not specified explicitly, default values for the partitioned table or index would be used. If, in turn, default INITRANS and/or MAXTRANS values for the partitioned table or index were not specified, system defaults would be used.
Action: Ensure that the value of INITRANS (whether specified explicitly or derived from the default value for the partitioned table or index) is no greater than that of MAXTRANS.
Cause: Value of INITRANS was found to be greater than that of MAXTRANS for a partition whose name (explicitly specified by the user) is displayed in this message. Note that if INITRANS and/or MAXTRANS values for this partition were not specified explicitly, default values for the partitioned table or index would be used. If, in turn, default INITRANS and/or MAXTRANS values for the partitioned table or index were not specified, system defaults would be used.
Action: Ensure that the value of INITRANS (whether specified explicitly or derived from the default value for the partitioned table or index) is no greater than that of MAXTRANS.
Cause: User issued ALTER TABLE statement attempting to modify data type and/or length of a column used to partition the table named in ALTER TABLE statement, which is illegal.
Action: Avoid modifying data type and/or length of table partitioning column(s).
Cause: User issued ALTER TABLE statement attempting to modify data type and/or length of a column used to partition some index defined on the table named in ALTER TABLE statement, which is illegal.
Action: Avoid modifying data type and/or length of index partitioning column(s).
Cause: User issued ALTER TABLE statement attempting to modify an existing VARCHAR2 (or VARCHAR) column to be of type CHAR (or CHARACTER), increase length of an existing CHAR (or CHARACTER) column, or add a column with user-specified default for a table one or more partitions of which reside in read-only tablespaces, which is illegal.
Action: Avoid performing aforementioned operations on a partitioned table one or more partitions of which reside in read-only tablespaces.
Cause: An attempt was made to add or enable a primary key/unique constraint on column(s) of a table on which there exists an index marked Index Unusable.
Action: Drop the existing index or rebuild it using ALTER INDEX REBUILD.
Cause: An attempt was made to add or enable a primary key/unique constraint on column(s) of a table on which there exists an index one or more partitions of which are marked Index Unusable.
Action: Drop the existing index or rebuild unusable partitions it using ALTER INDEX REBUILD PARTITION.
Cause: User specified ALLOCATE STORAGE clause in ALTER TABLE statement issued against a partitioned table which is illegal.
Action: Remove the illegal option. If it is desired to add storage to individual partitions, ALLOCATE STORAGE clause may be specified with ALTER TABLE MODIFY PARTITION statement.
Cause: An attempt was made to issue a CREATE or ALTER TABLE command on a non-partitioned index-organized table, but the command contains an option that is legal only for partitioned index-organized tables. Such options are: ENABLE ROW MOVEMENT and DISABLE ROW MOVEMENT.
Action: Remove the illegal options from the command.
Cause: TABLESPACE_NUMBER clause was specified more than once for a table, an index, or an index partition.
Action: Correct the code generating text of CREATE INDEX statement sent to the slaves.
Cause: Both TABLESPACE and TABLESPACE_NUMBER clauses were specified for a table, an index, or an index partition.
Action: Correct the code generating text of CREATE INDEX statement sent to the slaves.
Cause: The TABLESPACE_NUMBER value is not an integer between 0 and 0x7FFFFFFF.
Action: Correct the code generating text of CREATE INDEX statement sent to the slaves.
Cause: User issued ALTER INDEX statement containing an option which is legal only for partitioned indices or in conjunction with REBUILD against a non-partitioned index. Such options are: PCTFREE, TABLESPACE, [NO]PARALLEL and INITIAL, FREELISTS, and FREELIST GROUPS inside STORAGE clause.
Action: Remove illegal option(s).
Cause: An option other than COMPRESS, NOCOMPRESS, PCTFREE, INITRANS, MAXTRANS, STORAGE, TABLESPACE, PARALLEL, NOPARALLEL, RECOVERABLE, UNRECOVERABLE, LOGGING, NOLOGGING, LOCAL, or GLOBAL was specified for an index used to enforce a constraint.
Action: Choose one of the valid index options.
Cause: An attempt was made to truncate a fixed table which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that the table being truncated is not a fixed table.
Cause: An attempt was made to truncate a bootstrap table or cluster which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that the table (or cluster) being truncated is not a bootstrap table (or cluster).
Cause: Partition bound specified in ALTER TABLE ADD PARTITION statement did not collate higher than that of the table's last partition, which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that the partition bound of the partition to be added collates higher than that of the table's last partition.
Cause: Index named in ALTER INDEX partition maintenance operation is not partitioned, making a partition maintenance operation, at best, meaningless.
Action: Ensure that the index named in ALTER INDEX statement specifying a partition maintenance operation is, indeed, partitioned.
Cause: An attempt was made to drop or split a partition of a LOCAL index which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that the index named in such statement is a GLOBAL partitioned index.
Cause: An attempt was made to drop highest partition of a GLOBAL index, which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that the partition specified in ALTER INDEX DROP PARTITION statement is not the highest partition of the index.
Cause: ALTER INDEX MODIFY PARTITION statement against an index partition marked Index Unusable contained STORAGE and/or DEALLOCATE SPACE clauses which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that only valid options are specified.
Cause: An attempt was made to split a partition along a bound which either collates higher than that of the partition to be split or lower than that of a partition immediately preceding the one to be split.
Action: Ensure that the bound along which a partition is to be split collates lower than that of the partition to be split and higher that of a partition immediately preceding the one to be split.
Cause: User entered ALTER TABLE/INDEX RENAME PARTITION specifying new_partition_name which is identical to the name of the partition being renamed.
Action: Ensure that the new partition name is different from the name of any (including the one being renamed) existing partition of a given table or index.
Cause: User entered ALTER TABLE/INDEX RENAME PARTITION specifying new_partition_name which is identical to the name of some existing partition of the object.
Action: Ensure that the new partition name is different from the name of any (including the one being renamed) existing partition of a given table or index.
Cause: A drop partition command is being executed when there is only one partition in the table.
Action: Ensure that there is at least one partition. Drop table to remove all partitions.
Cause: An attempt was made to specify TABLESPACE DEFAULT for an object other than a LOCAL index, which is illegal.
Action: Re-enter the statement without TABLESPACE DEFAULT clause.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a partitioned table with a LONG datatype or tried to add a LONG datatype column to a partitioned table.
Action: LONG data types are not supported with partitioned tables. Create table without LONG column or change table to not partitioned. If adding column, do not use LONG datatype. If modifying attributes of a column to change data type to LONG, it has to be a non-partitioned table.
Cause: An attempt was made to rebuild a partitioned index using ALTER INDEX REBUILD statement, which is illegal.
Action: Rebuild the index a partition at a time (using ALTER INDEX REBUILD PARTITION) or drop and re-create the entire index.
Cause: Name of the table to be EXCHANGED has to be followed by [{INCLUDING|EXCLUDING} INDEXES][{WITH|WITHOUT} VALIDATION].
Action: Ensure that no options besides INCLUDING INDEXES or EXCLUDING INDEXES are specified with ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION.
Cause: The table in the EXCHANGE operation is either clustered or partitioned.
Action: Ensure that the table with which the partition is being exchanged for is not partitioned or clustered.
Cause: The two tables specified in the EXCHANGE have different number of columns.
Action: Ensure that the two tables have the same number of columns with the same type and size.
Cause: The corresponding columns in the tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION are of different type or size.
Action: Ensure that the two tables have the same number of columns with the same type and size.
Cause: The two tables specified in the EXCHANGE have indexes which are not equivalent.
Action: Ensure that the indexes for the two tables have indexes which follow this rule For every non-partitioned index for the non-partitioned table, there has to be an identical LOCAL index on the partitioned table and vice versa. By identical, the column position, type and size have to be the same.
Cause: There is at least one row in the non-partitioned table which does not qualify for the partition specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION.
Action: Ensure that all the rows in the segment qualify for the partition. Perform the alter table operation with the NO CHECKING option. Run ANALYZE table VALIDATE on that partition to find out the invalid rows and delete them.
Cause: An attempt was made to use partition-extended table name syntax in conjunction with remote object name which is illegal.
Action: Correct the statement and re-enter it.
Cause: An attempt was made to use partition-extended table name syntax in conjunction with synonym name which is illegal.
Action: Correct the statement and re-enter it.
Cause: LOGGING was specified more than once, NOLOGGING was specified more than once, or both LOGGING and NOLOGGING were specified.
Action: Remove all but one of the LOGGING or NOLOGGING clauses and reissue the statement.
Cause: A statement contained both [NO]LOGGING and [UN]RECOVERABLE clauses which is disallowed.
Action: Remove one of the offending clauses. [UN]RECOVERABLE is being deprecated in V8 and will be obsoleted in V9. To duplicate semantics of UNRECOVERABLE clause, create an object with NOLOGGING option and then ALTER it specifying LOGGING. To duplicate semantics of RECOVERABLE clause, create an object with LOGGING option.
Cause: CREATE TABLE/INDEX statement used to create a partitioned table/index contained RECOVERABLE or UNRECOVERABLE clause which is illegal.
Action: Remove offending clause. [UN]RECOVERABLE is being deprecated in V8 and will be obsoleted in V9. To duplicate semantics of UNRECOVERABLE clause, create an object with NOLOGGING option and then ALTER it specifying LOGGING. To duplicate semantics of RECOVERABLE clause, create an object with LOGGING option.
Cause: RECOVERABLE/UNRECOVERABLE clause is not allowed in this context.
Action: Remove offending clause. RECOVERABLE/UNRECOVERABLE may only be specified in CREATE TABLE/INDEX statement describing a non-partitioned table or index and ALTER INDEX REBUILD statement. [UN]RECOVERABLE is being deprecated in V8 and will be obsoleted in V9. To duplicate semantics of UNRECOVERABLE clause, create an object with NOLOGGING option and then ALTER it specifying LOGGING. To duplicate semantics of RECOVERABLE clause, create an object with LOGGING option.
Cause: An attempt was made to specify LOGGING or NOLOGGING clause in CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE statement involving a clustered table.
Action: Remove offending clause.
Cause: parameter which supplies partition name is missing. This parameter is optional for non-partitioned objects, but is required for partitioned objects.
Action: Supply the missing parameter.
Cause: Partition to be accessed may only be specified using its name. An attempt was made to use a partition number or a bind variable.
Action: Modify the statement to refer to a partition using its name.
Cause: An attempt was made to use a partition-extended object name with an object which is not a table.
Action: Avoid using partition-extended name syntax with objects which are not tables.
Cause: Partitioning column specified by the user was of type ROWID, which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that no partitioning column is of type ROWID.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a GLOBAL partitioned index on a clustered table which is currently illegal.
Action: Remove PARTITION BY RANGE() clause along with (partition_list) to create a GLOBAL non-partitioned index on a clustered table.
Cause: Description of a partition or subpartition found in CREATE TABLE/INDEX statement contained RECOVERABLE or UNRECOVERABLE clause which is illegal.
Action: Remove offending clause. Use LOGGING or NOLOGGING instead.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a partitioned table with a LOB datatype or tried to add a LOB datatype column to a partitioned table.
Action: LOB data types are not supported with partitioned tables. Create table without LOB column or change table to not partitioned. If adding column, do not use LOB datatype. If modifying attributes of a column to change data type to LOB, it has to be a non-partitioned table.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a partitioned table with a object datatype (object, REF, nested table, array) or tried to add a object datatype column to a partitioned table.
Action: object data types are not supported with partitioned tables. Create table without object column or change table to not partitioned. If adding column, do not use object datatypes. If modifying attributes of a column to change data type to object, it has to be a non-partitioned table.
Cause: Length of linear key representation of a high bound of the partition whose number (partitions are numbered starting with 1) is displayed in this message exceeded the legal limit (4K).
Action: Change representation of a partition high bound to bring its length within legal limit.
Cause: Length of linear key representation of a high bound of the partition whose name (explicitly specified by the user) is displayed in this message exceeded the legal limit (4K).
Action: Change representation of a partition high bound to bring its length within legal limit.
Cause: User attempted an operation requiring that we access data in a partition which resides in a tablespace which was taken offline. Such operations include trying to drop a tablespace of a table which has indices defined on it or is referenced by a constraint.
Action: Bring the tablespace online before attempting the operation.
Cause: The corresponding columns in the tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION statement have CHECK constraint defined on them.
Action: Ensure that the two tables do not have CHECK constraint defined on any column.
Cause: Length of a linear key representation of a high bound of a table partition being added or along which an existing table or index partition is being split exceeded the legal limit (4K).
Action: Change representation of a partition high bound to bring its length within legal limit.
Cause: An attempt was made to use a date expression whose format does not fully (that is, day, month, and year (including century)) specify a date as a partition bound for a DATE column. The format may have been specified explicitly (using TO_DATE() function) or implicitly (NLS_DATE_FORMAT).
Action: Ensure that date format used in a partition bound for a DATE column supports complete specification of a date (that is, day, month, and year (including century)). If NLS_DATE_FORMAT
does not support complete (that is, including the century) specification of the year, use TO_DATE() (for example, TO_DATE('01-01-1999', 'MM-DD-YYYY') to fully express the desired date.
Cause: ALTER TABLE or ALTER INDEX statement attempted to combine MODIFY DEFAULT ATTRIBUTES with some other operation (for example, ADD PARTITION or PCTFREE) which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that MODIFY DEFAULT ATTRIBUTES is the sole operation specified in ALTER TABLE or ALTER INDEX statement; operations other than those dealing with partitions, default attributes of partitioned tables/indices or specifying that a table be renamed (ALTER TABLE RENAME) may be combined at will.
Cause: Both REVERSE and NOREVERSE were specified in CREATE INDEX statement.
Action: Remove all but one of the REVERSE or NOREVERSE clauses and reissue the statement.
Cause: NOREVERSE was specified more than once in ALTER INDEX statement.
Action: Remove all but one of the NOREVERSE clauses and reissue the statement.
Cause: REVERSE was specified more than once in ALTER INDEX or CREATE INDEX statements.
Action: Remove all but one of the REVERSE clauses and reissue the statement.
Cause: REVERSE/NOREVERSE clause is not allowed in this context.
Action: Remove offending clause. REVERSE may be specified as an attribute of an index (not of an individual partition, if creating a partitioned index) in CREATE INDEX statement and ALTER INDEX REBUILD statement. NOREVERSE may be specified only in ALTER INDEX REBUILD statement.
Cause: Descriptions of partition(s) resulting from splitting of a table or index partition may be followed by an optional parallel_clause which applies to the entire statement and which, in turn, may not be followed by any other clause.
Action: Ensure that all partition attributes appear within the parenthesized list of descriptions of resulting partitions in ALTER TABLE/INDEX SPLIT PARTITION statement.
Cause: The corresponding columns in the tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION statement have different FOREIGN KEY constraints.
Action: Ensure that the two tables do not have FOREIGN KEY constraints defined on any column or disable all FOREIGN KEY constraints on both tables. Then retry the operation.
Cause: Matching UNIQUE constraints in both table are enabled and validated but INCLUDING INDEXES is not specified in ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION|SUBPARTITION command.
Action: Disable currently enabled matching UNIQUE constraints on both tables or ensure that INCLUDING INDEXES option is used.
Cause: One of the tables named in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION command has a UNIQUE constraint for which no matching (vis-a-vis key columns) constraint is defined on the other table or a matching constraint is defined on the other table, but it differs from that defined on the first table vis-a-vis being enabled and/or validated.
Action: Ensure that for every UNIQUE constraint defined on one of the tables named in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION statement there is a matching (vis-a-vis key columns and being enabled and/or validated) UNIQUE constraint defined on the other table. If UNIQUE constrains are enabled, UNIQUE constraints on the partitioned table should be enforced using local indexes.
Cause: One of the tables referenced in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION|SUBPARTITION statement has enabled UNIQUE constraint(s) defined on it, which prevents EXCHANGE from proceeding.
Action: Disable constraints defined on tables referenced in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION|SUBPARTITION statement and retry the statement.
Cause: An attempt was made to issue an ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION | SUBPARTITION command, but the non-partitioned table cannot be used in the EXCHANGE because one or more of the following apply:
Action: Make sure the non-partitioned table does not violate any of the above restrictions for the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION | SUBPARTITION command.
Cause: An attempt was made to combine an ALTER TABLE MOVE statement with another operation, such as MODIFY.
Action: Make sure that MOVE is the only operation specified in ALTER TABLE statement.
Cause: An attempt was made to make a reverse index with some index columns marked DESC.
Action: Do not use DESC in reverse indexes. The rule-based optimizer can scan indexes backwards, which allows a normal reverse index to simulate a reverse index with columns marked DESC.
Cause: An attempt was made to specify a column of type BLOB or CLOB as a partitioning or subpartitioning column.
Action: Ensure that no partitioning or subpartitioning column is of type BLOB or CLOB.
Cause: User doing exchange does not have full table access due to VPD policies.
Action: Grant exempt priviliges to this user.
Cause: Keyword SUBPARTITION missing.
Action: Supply the missing parameter.
Cause: Invalid partitioning method was specified in CREATE TABLE statement. A table may be partitioned by RANGE, HASH, or composite range/hash (R+H).
Action: Specify one of valid partitioning methods.
Cause: number-of-partitions clause contained in CREATE TABLE or CREATE INDEX statement specified a number of partitions outside of legal range (1-65535).
Action: Specify a number between 1 and 65535 in the number-of-partitions clause.
Cause: Both STORE IN and partition_description clauses were specified in a CREATE TABLE|INDEX command.
Action: Remove one of offending clauses.
Cause: Both STORE IN and subpartition_description clauses were specified in a CREATE TABLE|INDEX, or ALTER TABLE ADD|SPLIT PARTITION or ALTER TABLE MERGE PARTITIONS command for a composite range-partitioned object.
Action: Remove one of offending clauses.
Cause: Expected either the PARTITION or SUBPARTITION keyword but neither was supplied.
Action: Supply the missing keyword.
Cause: Number-of-subpartitions clause contained in CREATE TABLE or CREATE INDEX statement specified a number of subpartitions outside of legal range (1-65535).
Action: Specify a number between 1 and 65535 in the number-of-subpartitions clause.
Cause: A subpartition name of the form identifier is expected but not present.
Action: Enter an appropriate subpartition name.
Cause: CREATE TABLE or CREATE INDEX contained too many subpartition descriptions; maximum number of subpartitions is 65535.
Action: Reduce the number of subpartitions to not exceed 65535.
Cause: Name of a subpartition of a table or index being created is not unique.
Action: Rename the subpartition(s) to ensure that their names are unique among subpartitions of the table or index being created.
Cause: An unexpected option was encountered while parsing physical attributes of a table subpartition; TABLESPACE is the only valid option.
Action: Remove the invalid option(s).
Cause: The sum of PCTUSED and PCTFREE for a subpartition whose number (subpartitions are numbered starting with 1) is displayed in this message exceeds 100. Note that if PCTUSED and/or PCTFREE values for this subpartition were not specified explicitly, default values at partition-level would be used. If, in turn, default PCTUSED and/or PCTFREE values at partition-level were not specified, default values for the partitioned table or index would be used. If those values were also not specified explicitly, system defaults would be used.
Action: Ensure that a sum of PCTUSED and PCTFREE for the subpartition does not exceed 100.
Cause: The sum of PCTUSED and PCTFREE for a subpartition whose name (explicitly specified by the user) is displayed in this message exceeds 100. Note that if PCTUSED and/or PCTFREE values for this subpartition were not specified explicitly, default values at partition-level would be used. If, in turn, default PCTUSED and/or PCTFREE values at partition-level were not specified, default values for the partitioned table or index would be used. If those values were also not specified explicitly, system defaults would be used.
Action: Ensure that a sum of PCTUSED and PCTFREE for the subpartition does not exceed 100.
Cause: The value of INITRANS was found to be greater than that of MAXTRANS for a subpartition whose number (subpartitions are numbered starting with 1) is displayed in this message. Note that if INITRANS and/or MAXTRANS values for this subpartition were not specified explicitly, default values at partition-level would be used. If, in turn, default INITRANS and/or MAXTRANS values at partition-level were not specified, default values for the partitioned table or index would be used. If those values were also not specified explicitly, system defaults would be used.
Action: Ensure that value of INITRANS (whether specified explicitly or derived from the default value at partition-level, table-level or index-level) is no greater than that of MAXTRANS.
Cause: The value of INITRANS was found to be greater than that of MAXTRANS for a subpartition whose name (explicitly specified by the user) is displayed in this message. Note that if INITRANS and/or MAXTRANS values for this subpartition were not specified explicitly, default values at partition-level would be used. If, in turn, default INITRANS and/or MAXTRANS values at partition-level were not specified, default values for the partitioned table or index would be used. If those values were also not specified explicitly, system defaults would be used.
Action: Ensure that value of INITRANS (whether specified explicitly or derived from the default value at partition-level, table-level or index-level) is no greater than that of MAXTRANS.
Cause: An ALTER TABLE or ALTER INDEX statement attempted to combine MODIFY DEFAULT ATTRIBUTES OF PARTITION with some other operation (for example, ADD PARTITION or PCTFREE) which is illegal.
Action: Ensure that MODIFY DEFAULT ATTRIBUTES is the sole operation specified in ALTER TABLE or ALTER INDEX statement; operations other than those dealing with partitions, default attributes of partitioned tables/indices or specifying that a table be renamed (ALTER TABLE RENAME) may be combined at will.
Cause: Keyword INTO missing.
Action: Supply the missing keyword.
Cause: ALTER TABLE MOVE SUBPARTITION contained descriptions of more than one subpartition to be moved.
Action: Ensure that the statement describes exactly one subpartition to be moved and that it does not contain any commas.
Cause: ALTER TABLE|INDEX MODIFY SUBPARTITION contained descriptions of more than one subpartition to be modified.
Action: Ensure that the statement describes exactly one subpartition to be modified and that it does not contain any commas.
Cause: An option other than PCTFREE, PCTUSED, INITRANS, MAXTRANS, STORAGE, was specified in an ALTER TABLE MODIFY SUBPARTITION statement.
Action: Specify only legal options.
Cause: User requested to generate default partition description(s) (possibly via PARTITIONS number_of_partitions) while at the same time specified partition_description clause which is illegal.
Action: Remove one of offending clauses.
Cause: User requested to generate default subpartition description(s) (possibly via SUBPARTITIONS) while at the same time specified subpartition_description clause which is illegal.
Action: Remove one of offending clauses.
Cause: Name of the table to be EXCHANGED has to be followed by [{INCLUDING|EXCLUDING} INDEX][{WITH|WITHOUT} VALIDATION].

Cause: An attempt was made to create a LOCAL partitioned index that is not equipartitioned with the underlying table. The partitioning types are mismatched.
Action: Correct the CREATE INDEX statement to ensure that the index partitioning method is consistent with that of the base table.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a UNIQUE partitioned index whose subpartitioning columns do not form a subset of its key columns which is illegal.
Action: If you want to create an index whose subpartitioning columns do not form a subset of its key columns, it must be created as non-UNIQUE; otherwise, correct the list of key and/or subpartitioning columns to ensure that the index's subpartitioning columns form a subset of its key columns.
Cause: An unexpected option was encountered while parsing physical attributes of an index subpartition; TABLESPACE is the only valid option.
Action: Remove the invalid option(s).
Cause: One of the following:
Action: Remove all but one of the ENABLE ROW MOVEMENT or DISABLE ROW MOVEMENT clauses and then reissue the command.
Cause: User specified ALLOCATE STORAGE clause in ALTER TABLE/ALTER INDEX statement issued against a range-partitioned index which is illegal.

Cause: The corresponding columns in the tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE SUBPARTITION are of different type or size.
Action: Ensure that the two tables have the same number of columns with the same type and size.
Cause: The two tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE SUBPARTITION have indexes which are not equivalent.
Action: Ensure that the indexes for the two tables have indexes which follow this rule For every non-partitioned index for the non-partitioned table, there has to be an identical LOCAL index on the partitioned table and vice versa. By identical, the column position, type and size have to be the same.
Cause: There is at least one row in the non-partitioned table which does not qualify for the subpartition specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE SUBPARTITION.
Action: Ensure that all the rows in the segment qualify for the subpartition. Perform the alter table operation with the NO CHECKING option. Run ANALYZE table VALIDATE on that subpartition to find out the invalid rows and delete them.
Cause: The corresponding columns in the tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE SUBPARTITION statement have CHECK constraint defined on them.
Action: Ensure that the two tables do not have CHECK constraint defined on any column.
Cause: The corresponding columns in the tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE SUBPARTITION statement have different FOREIGN KEY constraints.
Action: Ensure that the two tables do not have FOREIGN KEY constraints defined on any column or disable all FOREIGN KEY constraints on both tables. Then retry the operation.
Cause: One of the tables named in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE SUBPARTITION command has a UNIQUE constraint for which no matching (vis-a-vis key columns) constraint is defined on the other table or a matching constraint is defined on the other table, but it differs from that defined on the first table vis-a-vis being enabled and/or validated.
Action: Ensure that for every UNIQUE constraint defined on one of the tables named in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE SUBPARTITION statement there is a matching (vis-a-vis key columns and being enabled and/or validated) UNIQUE constraint defined on the other table. If UNIQUE constrains are enabled, UNIQUE constraints on the partitioned table should be enforced using local indexes.
Cause: User issued ALTER TABLE statement attempting to modify an existing VARCHAR2 (or VARCHAR) column to be of type CHAR (or CHARACTER), increase length of an existing CHAR (or CHARACTER) column, or add a column with user-specified default for a table one or more subpartitions of which reside in read-only tablespaces, which is illegal.

Cause: When exchanging a partitioned table with a composite partition, the type and size of the partitioning columns of the table must match the type and size of the subpartitioning columns of the composite partition.
Action: Ensure that the type and size of the partitioning columns of the partitioned is the same as the type and size of the subpartitioning columns of the composite partition.
Cause: The block sizes of the two tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE [SUB]PARTITION statement are different. For index organized tables, either the block sizes of the index or the overflow (or both) do not match.
Action: Ensure that the block sizes of the tables involved in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE [SUB]PARTITION statement are the same. For index organized tables, ensure that the block sizes of both the index and the overflow of the two tables match.
Cause: The block sizes of a pair of indexes being exchanged in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE [SUB]PARTITION statement are different.
Action: Ensure that the block sizes of the corresponding pairs of indexes that need to be exchanged in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE [SUB]PARTITION statement are the same.
Cause: The block sizes of a pair of corresponding LOB columns of the two tables specified in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE [SUB]PARTITION statement are different.
Action: Ensure that the block sizes of corresponding pairs of LOB columns of the tables involved in the ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE [SUB]PARTITION statement are the same.
Cause: While processing an ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN statement, table-level attributes of LOB columns were encountered after processing partition-level attributes of LOB columns or while processing CREATE TABLE statement, table-level attributes of LOB columns were encountered after processing partition descriptions.
Action: Modify the SQL statement to specify table-level attributes prior to partition-level attributes or partition descriptions; then retry the statement.
Cause: While parsing an ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN statement, one list of added-LOB-storage-clauses was parsed when another list of added-LOB-storage-clauses was encountered. There cannot be more than one list of added-LOB-storage-clauses in a statement; all added-LOB-storage-clauses must be combined into one list.
Action: Combine all of the lists of added-LOB-storage-clauses into one list and retry the statement.
Cause: Descriptions of partitions or subpartitions in an ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN statement were ordered differently from the DDL order of partitions or subpartitions.
Action: Re-order the partitions or subpartitions in the added LOB storage clause by partition or subpartition DDL order, and retry the statement.
Cause: Number of columns in a partitioning column list exceeded the legal limit of 1 for list partitioned objects.
Action: Modify partitioning column list so that it consists of at most 1 column.
Cause: A list value cannot be specified more that once.
Action: Remove one of the specifications of the value.

Cause: After a SPLIT/DROP VALUE of a list partition, each resulting partition(as applicable) must contain at least 1 value.
Action: Ensure that each of the resulting partitions contains at least 1 value.
Cause: The same partition name was specified twice for the merge operation.
Action: Re-submit operation with 2 distinct partition names.
Cause: ALTER TABLE ADD|DROP VALUES can only be performed on list partitioned objects.
Action: reissue the command against a list partitoned object.
Cause: ALTER TABLE DROP VALUES tried to drop the last value of the partition.
Action: Cannot execute the command, unless two or more values exist for partition.
Cause: A partition description follows the one describing the default partition.
Action: Ensure that the DEFAULT partition is the last partition description.
Cause: DEFAULT keyword has been specified along with other values when specifying the values for a list partition.
Action: Ensure that if DEFAULT is specified, it is the only value specified.
Cause: DEFAULT keyword has been specified when performing an ADD VALUES, DROP VALUES, SPLIT partition, or subpartition.
Action: Ensure that DEFAULT is not specified for ADD/DROP VALUES or SPLIT partition/subpartition operations.
Cause: An ADD/DROP VALUES operation is being performed on the default partition.
Action: Ensure that ADD/DROP VALUES is not performed on the DEFAULT partition.
Cause: A partition already exists with DEFAULT value.
Cause: An ADD PARTITION operation cannot be executed when a partition with DEFAULT values exists.
Action: Issue a SPLIT of the DEFAULT partition instead.
Cause: An ADD VALUE operation cannot be executed because the values being added exist in the DEFAULT partition.
Action: Issue a SPLIT of the DEFAULT partition and then MERGE the split partition into the partition to which values need to be added.
Cause: An attempt was made to insert a record into, a range or composite range object, with a concatenated partition key that is beyond the concatenated partition bound list of the last partition -OR- an attempt was made to insert a record into a list object with a partition key that did not match the literal values specified for any of the partitions.
Action: Do not insert the key. Or, add a partition capable of accepting the key. Or, add values matching the key to a partition specification.
Cause: The concatenated partition key of an inserted record is outside the ranges of the two concatenated partition bound lists that delimit the partition named in the INSERT statement.
Action: Do not insert the key or insert it in another partition.
Cause: An UPDATE statement attempted to change the value of a partition key column causing migration of the row to another partition.
Action: Do not attempt to update a partition key column or make sure that the new partition key is within the range containing the old partition key.

Action: Do not attempt to access the temporary table until the concurrent transaction has committed or aborted.
Cause: An attempt was made to create an IOT, specify physical attributes, specify partition or parallel clause.
Action: No action required.
Cause: An attempt was made to create, alter or drop an index on temporary table which is already in use.
Action: All the sessions using the session-specific temporary table have to truncate table and all the transactions using transaction specific temporary table have to end their transactions.
Cause: An attempt was made to use LOB from a temporary table whose data has been dropped either because table was transaction-specific and transaction has committed or aborted, table was truncated or session which created this LOB has ended.
Action: This LOB locator is invalid and cannot be used.
Cause: An attempt was made to reference temporary table in a referential integrity constraint. This is not supported.
Action: Use triggers.
Cause: An attempt was made to create a referential integrity constraint on a temporary table. This is not supported.

Cause: COMPRESS
was specified more than once, NOCOMPRESS
was specified more than once, or both COMPRESS
and NOCOMPRESS
were specified.
Action: Specify each desired COMPRESS
or NOCOMPRESS
clause option only once.
Cause: Incorrect syntax specified.
Action: Retry the command.
Cause: Table or index is not partitioned. Invalid syntax.
Action: Retry the command with correct syntax.

Action: Delete rows in subpartition which do not qualify.
Cause: An attempt has been made to access an index subpartition that has been marked unusable by a direct load or by a DDL operation.
Action: REBUILD the unusable index subpartition.
Cause: A table partition contains rows for the values being dropped.
Action: DELETE all rows for the values being dropped and reissue statement.
Cause: An attempt has been made to create a partitioned object in a manner that would require the partitioned object to span tablespaces of more than one block size.
Action: Ensure that all tablespaces specified in the DDL command for the given object as well as any tablespaces implicitly assigned to partitions or subpartitions of the object being created are all of the same block size.
Cause: A DDL statement was issued that would require a tablespace of a block size different from the block size of the specified partitioned object to be assigned either: (1) As the object's default tablespace (or one of the object's partition-level default tablespaces, if composite partitioning is being used) OR (2) To one of the object's partitions/subpartitions.
Action: Specify a tablespace of the same block size as the partitioned object.
Cause: A DDL statement was issued that would require creation of a new partition/subpartition in the object-level default tablespace of an existing partitioned object. However, the object-level default tablespace block size does not match the block size of the partitioned object.
Action: Either (1) Modify the default tablespace of the partitioned object to a tablespace of the same block size as the object and then retry the DDL command, OR (2) Ensure that tablespaces of the correct block size are specified for all new partitions/subpartitions being created.
Cause: A DDL statement was issued that would require creation of a new subpartition in one of the partition-level default tablespaces of an existing composite partitioned object. However, the partition-level default tablespace block size does not match the block size of the partitioned object.
Action: Either (1) Modify the partition-level default tablespace of the appropriate partition of the partitioned object to a tablespace of the same block size as the object and then retry the DDL command, OR (2) Ensure that tablespaces of the correct block size are specified for all new subpartitions being created.
Cause: A DDL statement was issued that would require a partition/subpartition of a local index/LOB column to be co-located with the corresponding partition/subpartition of the base table. However, this is not possible because the block sizes of the table and the LOB column/local index are different.
Action: Either (1) Specify an object-level default tablespace (or partition-level default tablespace for the appropriate partition, if composite partitioning is used) for the partitioned local index/LOB column and then retry the DDL command, OR (2) Ensure that tablespaces of the correct block size are specified for all new partitions/subpartitions being created. Also ensure that neither of TABLESPACE DEFAULT and STORE IN (DEFAULT) is specified for a local index whose block size does not match that of the base table.
Cause: DML operation like insert, update, delete or select-for-update cannot be performed inside a query or under a PDML slave.
Action: Ensure that the offending DML operation is not performed or use an autonomous transaction to perform the DML operation within the query or PDML slave.
Cause: DDL operations like creation tables, views etc. and transaction control statements such as commit/rollback cannot be performed inside a query or a DML statement.
Action: Ensure that the offending operation is not performed or use autonomous transactions to perform the operation within the query/DML operation.
Cause: A LOB write operation cannot be performed inside a query or a PDML slave.
Action: Ensure that the offending LOB write operation is not performed or use an autonomous transaction to perform the operation within the query or PDML slave.
Cause: Cannot specify these clauses while specifying a template.
Action: Correct the subpartition template clause.
Cause: SUBPARTITION TEMPLATEs can only be specified for composite partitioned tables.
Action: Do not use SUBPARTITION TEMPLATEs on non-partitioned or non-composite partitioned tables.
Cause: This syntax is valid only if subpartitioning dimension is hash.
Cause: Once a subpartition template has been specified during CREATE TABLE
, it is illegal to specify SUBPARTITIONS
or STORE IN
anywhere else.
Action: Remove either SUBPARTITIONS
or STORE IN
, or remove the SUBPARTITION TEMPLATE
clause.
Cause: A subpartition / lob segment was not specified a name in the template descriptions.
Action: All subpartitions / lob segments must have names specified in the template.
Cause: Tablespaces may either be specified for all subpartitions or must not be specified for any subpartitions.
Action: Either specify tablespaces for all or for none of the subpartitions.
Cause: Tablespaces may either be specified for all subpartitions or must not be specified for any subpartitions.

Action: Either specify tablespaces for all or for none of the lob segments.
Cause: Tablespaces may either be specified for all lob segments of a column or must not be specified for any lob segments of this column.
Action: Either specify tablespaces for all or for none of the lob segments.
Cause: Lob attributes of a column must be specified for all subpartitions or must not be specified at all.
Action: Ensure lob attributes of a column are specified for all subpartitions or not specified at all.
Cause: A subpartition name cannot be duplicated within the template.
Action: Rename one of the subpartitions.
Cause: Two lob segments of the same column were given the same name in the template.
Action: Rename one of the lob segments.
Cause: Any name generated from a partition name and template name must be less than the maximum permissible name for an identifier.
Action: Shorten either the partition name or the template name.
Cause: A list value cannot be specified more than once.
Action: Remove one of the specifications of the value.
Cause: A list value cannot be specified more than once.
Action: Remove one of the specifications of the value.
Cause: A subpartition maintenance operation such as ALTER TABLE MODIFY SUBPARTITION ADD | DROP VALUES
or ALTER TABLE DROP | SPLIT | MERGE SUBPARTITION
can only be performed on List subpartitioned objects.
Action: Re-issue the command against a List subpartitioned object.
Cause: An ADD/DROP VALUES operation is being performed on the default subpartition.
Action: Ensure that ADD/DROP VALUES is not done on the DEFAULT subpartition.
Cause: ALTER TABLE DROP VALUES tried to drop the last value of the subpartition.
Action: Cannot execute the command, unless two or more values exist for subpartition.
Cause: After a SPLIT/DROP VALUE of a list subpartition, each resulting subpartition(as applicable) must contain at least 1 value.
Action: Ensure that each of the resulting subpartitions contains at least 1 value.
Cause: A subpartition already exists with DEFAULT value.
Action: Remove the DEFAULT value from the specified list.
Cause: An ADD SUBPARTITION operation cannot be executed when a subpartition with DEFAULT values exists.
Action: Issue a SPLIT of the DEFAULT subpartition instead.
Cause: One of the list values in the ADD SUBPARTITION
or ADD VALUES
statement already exists in another subpartition.
Action: Remove the duplicate value from the statement and try again.
Cause: One of the list values in the SPLIT PARTITION
or DROP VALUES
statement does not exist in the subpartition.
Action: Remove the value from the statement and try again.
Cause: A subpartition description follows the one describing the default subpartition.
Action: Ensure that the DEFAULT subpartition is the last subpartition description.
Cause: Table subpartition contains rows for the values being dropped.
Action: DELETE all rows for the values being dropped and re-issue the statement.
Cause: An ADD VALUE operation cannot be executed because the values being added exist in the DEFAULT subpartition.
Action: Issue a SPLIT of the DEFAULT subpartition and then MERGE the split subpartition into the subpartition to which values need to be added.
Cause: An invalid operation such as ALTER INDEX DROP|SPLIT SUBPARTITION was specified on the global index.
Action: Ensure that subpartition level operations are not specified on a GLOBAL index, since these are only RANGE partitioned.
Cause: An operation such as ALTER TABLE SPLIT | ADD SUBPARTITION
specified bounds that were inconsistent with List subpartitioning method.
Action: Specify VALUES/subpartition descriptions correctly for SPLIT/ADD of List subpartitions.
Cause: A drop subpartition command is being executed when there is only one subpartition in the partition.
Cause: User attempted an operation requiring that we access data in a subpartition which resides in a tablespace which was taken offline. Such operations include trying to drop a tablespace of a table which has indexes defined on it or is referenced by a constraint.
Action: Bring the tablespace online before attempting the operation.
Cause: When exchanging a partitioned table with a composite partition, the bounds that describe the partitions of the table must match the bounds that describe the subpartitions of the composite partition.
Action: Ensure that the bounds describing partitions in the partitioned table are the same as the bounds of the subpartitions in the composite partition.
Cause: An ALTER TABLE ADD SUBPARTITION
statement was issued with a PARALLEL
clause for a List subpartition of a Range/List partitioned object. This is not allowed.
Action: Remove the PARALLEL
clause.
Cause: The clause INVALIDATE or UPDATE GLOBAL INDEXES is allowed only for ADD hash subpartition to a composite partitioned table.
Action: Remove clause and re-issue the operation.
Cause: During a split or a merge of a partition of a range list partitioned table, you cannot specify any subpartitioning information for the resulting partitions.
Action: Remove all subpartitioning information from the DDL.
Cause: ALTER TABLE MERGE SUBPARTITIONS contained more than one resulting subpartition for the MERGE.
Action: Ensure that the statement describes exactly one subpartition as the target that needs to be MERGEd.
Cause: ALTER TABLE SPLIT SUBPARTITION contained more than 2 resulting subpartition for the SPLIT.
Action: Ensure that the statement describes exactly 2 subpartitions as the target of the SPLIT operation.
Cause: The same subpartition name was specified twice for the merge operation.
Action: Re-submit operation with 2 distinct subpartition names within the same composite partition.
Cause: An attempt was made to MERGE subpartitions in different Range Composite partitions.
Action: Re-issue the command after ensuring that the 2 subpartitions being merged lie within the same composite partition.
Cause: Attempted to specify SUBPARTITIONS clause on table that is not partitioned by the Composite Range-Hash method.
Action: Re-issue the command after ensuring that the SUBPARTITIONS clause is not specified. To specify a template for a Composite Range List object use the SUBPARTITION TEMPLATE clause.
Cause: User attempted to drop or split a subpartition of a LOCAL index which is illegal.
Action: Issue the statement on a table subpartition instead.
Cause: Specifying a STORE-IN clause during CREATE/ALTER of a Range, Composite Range List partitioned table which is not allowed.
Action: Re-issue the statement after removing the STORE-IN clause.
Cause: The two tables in the EXCHANGE have usable bitmap indexes, and the INCLUDING INDEXES option has been specified and the tables have different hakan factors.
Action: Perform the exchange with the EXCLUDING INDEXES option or alter the bitmap indexes to be unusable.
Cause: Either records_per_block has been minimized for one of the tables to be exchanged, but not the other, or the hakan factors for the tables to be exchanged are not equal.
Action: If records_per_block has been minimized for one of the tables, but not the other, either perform alter table with the NOMINIMIZE RECORDS_PER_BLOCK option for both tables, or perform alter table with the MINIMIZE RECORDS_PER_BLOCK for both tables. If the hakan factors do not match, then perform alter table with the NOMINIMIZE RECORDS_PER_BLOCK option for both tables.
Cause: A subpartition maintenance operation such as ALTER TABLE MODIFY PARTITION COALESCE SUBPARTITION can only be performed on Hash subpartitioned objects.
Action: Re-issue the command against a Hash subpartitioned object.
Cause: A STORE IN clause was specified for Range List partitioned object.
Action: Re-issue the command after removing the STORE IN clause.
Cause: The database has been opened for read-only access. Attempts to modify the database using inappropriate DML or DDL statements generate this error.
Action: In order to modify the database, it must first be shut down and reopened for read-write access.
Cause: The database has been opened for read-only access by another instance, and cannot be opened for read-write access by this instance.
Action: This instance must be opened for read-write access, or all other instances must first be shut down and reopened for read-only access.
Cause: The database has been opened for read-write access by another instance, and cannot be opened for read-only access by this instance.
Action: This instance must be opened for read-only access, or all other instances must first be shut down and reopened for read-write access.
Cause: To ensure its integrity, a standby database can only be opened for read-only access.
Action: reissue the ALTER DATABASE OPEN specifying READ ONLY.
Cause: The control file is for a backup database which requires recovery, and cannot be opened for read-only access by this instance.
Action: Perform the necessary recovery and re-open for read-only access.
Cause: The database requires recovery, and therefore cannot be opened for read-only access by this instance.
Action: Perform the necessary recovery and re-open for read-only access.
Cause: The AUDIT_TRAIL initialization parameter was set to "DB" (or TRUE), which is incompatible with a database opened for read-only access.
Action: When the database is opened for read-only access, the AUDIT_TRAIL initialization parameter can only be set to "OS" or "NONE" (FALSE).
Cause: The backup control file being opened for read-only access does not contain a valid control file checkpoint. Therefore the database cannot be opened for read-only access.
Action: First open the database for read-write access which will result in a valid control file checkpoint. Then re-open the database for read-only access.
Cause: The control file for the database being opened for read-only access was created via CREATE CONTROLFILE
. Therefore a control file checkpoint could not be calculated and the database cannot be opened for read-only access.
Action: First open the database for read-write access which will result in a valid control file checkpoint. Then re-open the database for read-only access.
Cause: The database associated with the archive log destination service name is other than the required STANDBY type database. Remote archival of redo log files is not allowed to non-STANDBY database instances.
Action: Take the necessary steps to create the required compatible STANDBY database before retrying the ARCHIVE LOG processing.
Cause: The database associated with the archive log destination service name is opened for update access. Remote archival of redo log files to standby databases opened for update access is not allowed.
Action: Shut down the standby destination instance and re-open for read-only access or simply leave the standby instance mounted and unopened.
Cause: The archivelog remote file server (RFS) process at the specified standby database site has experienced an unrecoverable error and is unable to receive further archive log data.
Action: Correct the problem at the standby database site.
Cause: The database identifiers of the Primary and Standby database do not match. Remote archival of redo log files is not allowed to incompatible STANDBY database instances.
Action: Take the necessary steps to create the required compatible STANDBY database before retrying the ARCHIVE LOG processing.
Cause: An attempt was made to archive the named file manually, but the file did not require archiving. The file had previously been successfully archived.
Action: No action is required.
Cause: An attempt was made to archive the named log, but the archive was unsuccessful. The archive failed because there were no archive log destinations specified or all destinations experienced debilitating errors.
Action: Verify that archive log destinations are being specified and/or take the necessary step to correct any errors that may have occurred.
Cause: An attempt was made to archive the named log, but the archive was unsuccessful. A standby archive log destination was specified and the database was not media recovery enabled. This is not allowed.
Action: Disable the standby destination or enable media recovery and retry.
Cause: The managed standby database recovery operation has timed out waiting for the requested archived log file.
Action: Verify that the primary database is still archiving redo logs to the standby recovery database site and reissue the RECOVER STANDBY DATABASE WAIT command.
Cause: The LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
parameter was set to a non-NULL value when the primary archive destination was explicitly set to NULL.
Action: Set the primary archive destination to a valid non-NULL value.
Cause: One of the following events caused an incompatibility:
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST
or LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
initialization parameter was in use when a LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter (n
= 1, 2, ... 10) was encountered while fetching initialization parameters.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter was encountered while fetching initialization parameters.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter was in use when an ALTER SYSTEM
statement was used to define a value for either the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST
or LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
parameter.Action: Eliminate any incompatible parameter definitions.
Cause: One of the following events caused an incompatibility:
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST
or LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
initialization parameter was in use when the specified LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter (n
= 1, 2, ... 10) was encountered while fetching initialization parameters.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST
or LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
initialization parameter was in use when an attempt was made to use an ALTER SYSTEM
or ALTER SESSION
statement to define a value for the specified LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter was encountered while fetching initialization parameters.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter.Action: Eliminate any incompatible parameter definitions.
Cause: With automatic archiving enabled, the number of archive log destinations that could be used for the database was less than the LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST
parameter value.
Action: Either adjust the settings of the log archive destination parameters, or lower the value of LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST
.
Cause: An attempt was made to change the first specified archive log parameter using ALTER SESSION to have a destination value that duplicates the session-level destination value of the second specified archive log parameter.
Action: Specify a different session destination value for one of the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameters.
Cause: An attempt was made to change the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST
initialization parameter to NULL when the LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
initialization parameter is non-NULL.
Action: Either set the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST
initialization parameter to a non-NULL value, or set the LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
initialization parameter to a NULL value.
Cause: An attempt to change the first specified LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter (n
= 1, 2, ... 10) produced a destination that duplicates the session destination value of the second specified LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter. This error can occur when setting a non-NULL value with the ALTER SYSTEM statement. Or, this error can occur when setting a NULL value with ALTER SESSION command, because then the associated system destination value may appear as a duplicate.
Action: Specify a different destination value for the first specified LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter.
Cause: The value for the indicated LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter (n
= 1, 2, ... 10) could not be parsed. Common causes for this error are a misplaced equal sign, an unrecognized attribute, or an attribute that is missing a required value.
Action: Correct the value for the indicated LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter.
Cause: The value for the specified LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter (n
= 1, 2, ... 10) contained either repeated attributes or attributes that conflicted with each other.
Action: Correct the value for the indicated LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter.
Cause: The value for the specified LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter (n
= 1, 2, ... 10) contained a REOPEN
attribute with an invalid numeric value. The valid range is 0 - 65535.
Action: Correct the value for the indicated LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter.
Cause: The value for the indicated LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter (n
= 1, 2, ... 10) failed to include a destination option. A destination option is specified using either the LOCATION
or SERVICE
attribute.
Action: Correct the value for the indicated LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter.
Cause: With automatic archiving enabled, an attempt was made to change the indicated LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
or a LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_
n
parameter (n
= 1, 2, ... 10) to a value that reduces the number of archive log destinations to less than the specified LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST
value.
Action: Either select different options for the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
or LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_
n
parameters, or reduce the value for the LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST
parameter.
Cause: An attempt was made to change the LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST
parameter when there are no archive log destinations.
Action: Define one or more log archive destinations using the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST
, LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
, or LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameters (n
= 1, 2, ... 10). Then, change the value of the LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST
parameter.
Cause: The following event caused an incompatibility: Parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST
or LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
was in use when an attempt was made to change the LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST
parameter with an ALTER SESSION
statement.
Action: Replace any LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST
and LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST
parameters with LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
(n
= 1, 2, ... 10) parameters.
Cause: The value for the specified parameter contained a destination string that is too long.
Action: Replace the destination value for the specified parameter with a character string that has a length below the limit specified in the error message.
Cause: The value for the specified parameter contained a destination string that could not be translated.
Action: Use a valid destination string in the specified parameter.
Cause: An attempt was made to change the first specified archive log parameter to have a destination value that duplicates the system-level destination value of the second specified archive log parameter.
Action: Specify a different value for one of the archive log parameters.
Cause: Use of the FROM 'location' parameter is not allowed when MANAGED recovery has been specified.
Action: Correct the syntax and retry the command.
Cause: The indicated keyword is required but was not specified.
Action: Correct the syntax and retry the command.
Cause: A mode other than IMMEDIATE follows the CANCEL keyword in RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE statement.
Action: Specify either nothing or IMMEDIATE following CANCEL.
Cause: The managed standby database recovery operation has been canceled per user request.
Action: No action is required.
Cause: An attempt was made to archive the named file, but the file could not be archived. Examine the secondary error messages to determine the cause of the error.
Action: No action is required.
Cause: A request to archive a redo log to a standby site failed because the request was incompatible with the Remote File Server (RFS) at the standby site.
Action: Verify that compatible versions of Oracle are running on the primary and all standby sites.
Cause: The target standby destination archive log file is currently locked. This indicates that the file is being archived to by another Remote File Server (RFS) process.
Action: Check for and eliminate duplicate standby destination archive log service names defined for the primary database.
Cause: The Remote File Server (RFS) process at the standby destination archive log site has encountered a disabling error and is no longer available. Further archiving to the standby site may not be possible.
Action: Refer to the appropriate RFS trace file located at the standby site for details regarding the error encountered and if possible, take corrective action.
Cause: The managed standby database recovery operation has been canceled immediately per user request. Processing of the current archive log file has been interrupted and therefore the database is in an inconsistent state.
Action: No action required.
Cause: The standby database managed recovery operation has been canceled per user request or operation timeout.
Action: More specific messages will accompany this message.
Cause: An archive log destination attribute was attempted to be modified at the session level.
Action: Use the ALTER SYSTEM command to modify the destination attribute.
Cause: An archive log destination contains a dependency to another archive log destination that also contains a dependency.
Action: The parent archive log destination cannot be dependent on another archive log destination. Use the ALTER SYSTEM statement to remove one of the dependency attributes.
Cause: The archive log destination is dependent upon another destination, which has failed. Therefore, this destination also fails.
Action: No action required.
Cause: The parent archive log destination cannot be a standby database. It must be a local archive log destination.
Action: Change the parent archive log destination from referencing a standby database to referencing a local archive log repository.
Cause: Causes an I/O error to be signalled during the writing of an archival operation.
Action: No action required.
Cause: I/O error returned for a simulated archival failure during an archival operation.
Action: No action required.
Cause: An archive log was attempted to be created in a destination with a specified maximum quota size. The creation of the archive log exceeded the specified quota size. Therefore, the destination has been made inaccessible to future archival operations.
Action: No action required.
Cause: The value for the specified LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
(n
= 1...10) parameter contained a DELAY attribute with an invalid numeric value. The valid range is 0-5760 (in minutes).
Action: Correct the value for the indicated LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter.
Cause: A gap sequence is detected on the standby database while it was trying to perform managed standby recovery. The fetching of the gap sequence fails. The failures are logged in the alert log on the primary database.
Action: Check the alert log on primary and standby database. Take appropriate action to make the gap sequence available again. Managed standby recovery on the standby database cannot proceed further until the standby database is able to get the gap sequence redo log files.
Cause: The FAL server on the primary database has problem archiving a redo log file requested by the standby database. The cause for this failure is logged in the alert log file.
Action: Check the alert log on the primary database. Take the appropriate action to solve the problem. Re-issue Managed Standby Recovery on the standby database again.
Cause: FAL server rejects the FAL request from the FAL client. This may be caused by different reasons.
Action: Check the alert log on the primary database. Take the appropriate action to solve the problem.
Cause: An attempt was made to perform an online log file archival using a backup control file. However, the USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE syntax was not specified.
Action: If the archival operation is correct when using a backup control file, then the USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE syntax is required.
Cause: An attempt was made to perform an online log file archival using a current control file. However, the USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE syntax was specified.
Action: If the archival operation is correct when using a current control file, then the USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE syntax is not required.
Cause: The RFS process on the standby database received an internal error.
Action: Check the standby alert log and RFS trace files for more information.
Cause: Archiving not allowed of an empty or invalid log file.
Action: No action required.
Cause: The current log file cannot be archived using its file name.
Action: No action required.
Cause: It is possible the online log file was reclaimed as a new log file either before archival started, or during the archival operation.
Action: No action required.
Cause: Archiving not allowed of current log file.
Action: Check the alert log and archive trace files for additional information.
Cause: Remote archival of database REDO log files has been enabled by another instance, and cannot be disabled for this instance.
Action: Set the REMOTE_ARCHIVE_ENABLE
parameter to true
and restart this instance.
Cause: Remote archival of database REDO log files has been disabled by another instance, and cannot be enabled for this instance.
Action: Set the REMOTE_ARCHIVE_ENABLE
parameter to false
and restart this instance.
Cause: Receipt of remote archived REDO log files has been disabled at the associated standby destination host database.
Action: If appropriate, change the associated archive log parameter to specify a local destination with the LOCATION
keyword or defer the associated archive log destination. Or, if possible, set the standby REMOTE_ARCHIVE_ENABLE
parameter to true
and restart the standby database instance before further REDO log file archivals occur.
Cause: An archive log destination parameter has specified a remote destination with the SERVICE
keyword. Remote archival of REDO log files has been disabled for this database. The associated archive log destination has been disabled.
Action: If appropriate, change the archive log parameter to specify a local destination with the LOCATION
keyword or (if appropriate) set the REMOTE_ARCHIVE_ENABLE
parameter to true
and restart the database instance before further REDO log file archivals occur.
Cause: The activation identifier contained in the archive log file header does not match the activation identifier of the database being recovered. The indicated archive log cannot be applied to the database.
Action: Locate the appropriate archive log for the database.
Cause: The activation identifier of the indicated redo log file does not match the activation identifier of the database.
Cause: The activation identifiers of the Primary and Standby database do not match. Remote archival of redo log files is not allowed to incompatible STANDBY database instances. This can occur when trying to apply an incorrect archive log to a standby database, or when trying to archive to a standby database that does not match the primary database.
Action: Take the necessary steps to create the required compatible STANDBY database before retrying the ARCHIVE LOG processing.
Cause: The value for the specified LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
(n
= 1...10) parameter contained a REGISTER attribute that specified an invalid file name template string. If specified, the REGISTER file name template string must indicate an operating system-specific file path name including thread and log sequence number substitution directives (%t, %T, %s, %S).
Action: Correct the value for the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_
n
parameter.
Cause: The specified archived log file was not found at the indicated standby destination.
Action: Verify the correctness of the dependency archived log file name template specified for the indicated standby destination against the actual dependency archived log file.
Cause: No standby database archive log destinations were specified.
Action: Specify a standby archive log destination in the initialization parameter file.
Cause: Online log file archiving is disabled.
Action: Enable log file archiving.
Cause: There are no active ARCH processes.
Action: It is required that at least one ARCH process be active.
Cause: A standby database destination was specified that is not accessed by another instance.
Action: All database instances must access the same standby databases.
Cause: A standby database destination was specified that is not accessed by another instance.
Action: All database instances must access the same standby databases.
Cause: The database is not in ARCHIVELOG mode.
Action: Place the database in ARCHIVELOG mode.
Cause: The standby database does not have archival enabled.
Action: In order to allow the standby database to access the standby log files, the ARCH process must be enabled and active.
Cause: Logical standby apply engine was started with an invalid LogMiner session identifier.
Action: Fix the problem with the LogMiner session or create a new session.
Cause: Logical standby apply engine was started with fewer processes available than needed.
Action: Increase the values of the initialization parameters PROCESSES
and PARALLEL_MAX_SERVERS
, or the MAX_SLAVES
parameter seen in the DBA_LOGSTDBY_PARAMETERS
view.
Cause: Logical standby apply engine was started but it found inconsistencies in its metadata.
Action: Look in the trace file for more information.
Cause: Logical standby apply engine was started without creating a LogMiner session.
Action: Create a LogMiner session and restart the apply engine.
Cause: A logical standby apply engine was running when another was created.
Action: Shut down the previous apply engine before starting a new one.
Cause: The primary database is in "no data loss" mode, but the standby database does not contain any "standby log files".
Action: Add one or more standby log files to the standby database. This can be done while the standby database is mounted.
Cause: An attempt was made to perform a graceful switchover operation using a backup or clone control file.
Action: Convert the backup control file into a current control file prior to attempting a graceful switchover operation. A clone control file cannot be used for a graceful switchover operation.
Cause: An attempt was made to register an archive log that has not been completely archived. The specified archive log may be a "current" log file.
Action: Specify a completed archive log.
Cause: An attempt was made to register an archive log that already has a corresponding thread# and sequence# entry in the standby database control file. Duplicate information is not permitted.
Action: Use the V$ARCHIVED_LOG
fixed view to verify the archive log information.
Cause: An attempt was made to replace an archive log entry that was not originally created by the managed standby operation.
Action: No user action required.
Cause: An archive log destination contains a dependency to another archive log destination that has previously been archived.
Action: The parent archive log destination cannot be dependent on another archive log destination. Use the ALTER SYSTEM
statement to remove one of the dependency attributes.
Cause: An archive log destination contains a dependency to another archive log destination that is not active.
Action: The child archive log destination cannot be dependent on another invalid archive log destination. Use the ALTER SYSTEM
statement to remove one of the dependency attributes.
Cause: An archive log destination contains a dependency to another archive log destination that is not enabled for the LGWR process.
Action: The child archive log destination cannot be dependent on another archive log destination not archived by the LGWR. Use the ALTER SYSTEM
statement to change the parent archive log to specify the LGWR process.
Cause: The database was shut down while an online log file archival was active.
Action: No action required. The ARCH process is terminated.
Cause: A dependent archive log destination was inactivated due to the parent archive log destination becoming inelligible for archival. This may be due to the parent destination being manually deferred by an application user.
Action: No action required.
Cause: No standby database archive log destinations remain accessible and the primary database is in "protected" no-data-loss mode.
Action: Specify an alternate standby archive log destination in the initialization parameter file.
Cause: The RFS process on the standby database received an internal error.
Action: Check the standby alert log and RFS trace files for more information.
Cause: This database has not been completely configured as a Logical Standby database.
Action: Verify that the database is the intended Logical Standby database. Ensure that you already started logical standby apply with the ALTER DATABASE START LOGICAL APPLY INITIAL
statement. See the Oracle9i SQL Reference for the statement syntax.
Cause: An SCN from which to start could not be found.
Action: Register the first log file following the backup from which this database was generated. Using the ALTER DATABASE REGISTER LOGFILE
statement to register the database is recommended. Alternatively, you can provide a starting SCN value with this statement.
Cause: The new primary has not completed generating the necessary information for the standby to begin consuming its log stream.
Action: Verify that the database link provided references a system that is about to become a new primary. Wait a short time before retrying the command to allow the primary some time to generate the necessary information.
Cause: Logical Standby is currently applying changes. The apply must complete or be stopped to allow the requested operation.
Action: Execute the ALTER DATABASE STOP LOGICAL STANDBY APPLY
statement, then re-enter or re-specify the operation.
Cause: The option requested is not valid.
Action: Check spelling or refer to the Oracle9i SQL Reference for the correct statement syntax, then re-enter the request.
Cause: A Logical Standby apply operation is already running.
Action: no action required.
Cause: On the primary system, the log stream has been ended by the ALTER DATABASE PREPARE TO SWITCHOVER TO LOGICAL STANDBY
statement.
Action: Issue one of the following statements to make this standby a primary or resume applying changes from a new primary:
ALTER DATABASE PREPARE TO SWITCHOVER TO LOGICAL PRIMARY; ALTER DATABASE START LOGICAL STANDBY APPLY NEW PRIMARY dblink;
Cause: The current database has already been made a primary database.
Action: Issue the following statements to make this primary a standby:
ALTER DATABASE PREPARE TO SWITCHOVER TO LOGICAL STANDBY; ALTER DATABASE START LOGICAL STANDBY APPLY NEW PRIMARY dblink;
Cause: Log data from previous primary could not be completely applied.
Action: Check DBA_LOGSTDBY_EVENTS
for failures and take corrective action. Then, re-issue command.
Cause: A user provided stored procedure has been called to inspect a DDL statement prior to it being processed.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record user involvement in the processing of a statement. Additional information can be found in the DBA_LOGSTDBY_EVENTS
and the DBA_LOGSTDBY_SKIP
views.
Cause: This logical standby process is setting up to begin processing changes.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: This logical standby process is cleaning up and stopping Logical Standby apply.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The process is applying changes to a specific schema object.

Cause: The process is applying a DDL change that's committed at the given SCN.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The process is loading dictionary information from the redo stream. This activity may take a few minutes.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The process is idle waiting for additional changes to be made available.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The process is performing its primary function and is not waiting on any significant event.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The transaction being committed at the given SCN is being prepared for apply.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The transaction committed at the given SCN is being analyzed for dependencies.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The transaction committed at the given SCN is being applied.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: A large transaction is being applied before the commit has been seen. The current redo being applied ends as the given SCN.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The apply process is waiting for approval to commit a transaction. This transaction may depend on another or other synchronization activity may delay the committing of a transaction.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The apply process is waiting to apply additional changes. This transaction likely depends on another.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The apply process is waiting until additional changes for a large transaction are retrieved from the log stream.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: Information on the given table or sequence is being loaded into an in memory cache for future use.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: This process is waiting for additional memory before continuing. Additional log information cannot be read into memory until more transactions have been applied to the database, thus freeing up additional memory.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes. If this message occurs often and changes are not being applied quickly, then increase available SGA or the number of apply processes.
Cause: Logical standby was shutdown in an orderly fashion.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: DML to tables in the SYS
schema have been updated and are not part of a DDL operation. This may be due to some DBA activity or DML associated with a kernel PL/SQL request that Logical Standby does not yet support.
Action: Check the DBA_LOGSTDBY_EVENTS
table for the name of the table being processed. Possibly use Log Miner to understand the transaction, and provide a compensating transaction on the standby system. Once complete, call DBMS_LOGSTDBY.SKIP_TRANSACTION
with the associated transaction id, and resume apply.
Cause: Supplemental logging is not enabled at the primary database.
Action: Issue the following statement to enable supplemental logging:
ALTER DATABASE ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA (PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE INDEX) COLUMNS;
Cause: An error occurred during a Terminal Recovery of the standby.
Action: Check the standby alert log additional information.
Cause: An error occurred during activation of the standby database following a Terminal Recovery.
Action: Check the standby alert log additional information.
Cause: After activation of a standby database following a terminal recovery (recovery of standby using current logs), recovery of a datafile from before the activation must have completed the same terminal recovery to avoid corruption.
Action: A backup of the datafile taken after the terminal recovery and before activating the standby must be used for recovery.
Cause: A mode other than NOWAIT follows the FINISH keyword in the RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE statement.
Action: Specify either nothing or NOWAIT following FINISH.
Cause: A terminal recovery (initiated by the RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY FINISH command) could not find the current log for the requested thread and sequence.
Action: Check that the standby current logs are in the correct location.
Cause: An attempt was made to cancel a managed recovery session but no managed recovery session was active.
Action: No action required.
Cause: All archived logs have been applied, and there are no current logs to be applied. Terminal recovery is not required.
Action: No action required. The standby database may be activated as a new primary or may continue as a standby.
Cause: The standby system has not received notification that the primary system log stream has been terminated. A graceful switchover is not possible.
Action: Verify that the primary log stream has been terminated. Ensure that the standby has applied all necessary redo from the primary system and, if appropriate, reissue the graceful switchover command.
Cause: The database has not been recovered through the end of log stream. Graceful switchover is not possible.
Action: Ensure that the entire log stream has been applied. If appropriate, re-issue the graceful switchover command.
Cause: The standby database has online logs containing redo that has not been recovered. Activating the standby would lose redo contained in the online logs.
Action: To recover the standby online logs issue the following command:
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE FINISH;
Then re-issue the ALTER DATABASE ACTIVATE STANDBY DATABASE
statement. To activate the standby without recovering the online logs, issue the following command:
ALTER DATABASE ACTIVATE STANDBY DATABASE SKIP STANDBY LOGFILE;
Cause: An attempt was made, by an RFS process, to access a standby online log file during or after a terminal recovery.
Action: The primary must not attempt to archive to the standby after a terminal recovery.
Cause: The indicated archived log file is not available for recovery due to the fact that it is still being archived.
Action: Verify that archival of the indicated log file has completed and re-issue the RECOVER STANDBY DATABASE command.
Cause: The target standby destination control file is currently unavailable to the Remote File Server (RFS) process. This indicates that the target destination is the primary database itself.
Action: Check for and eliminate the standby destination archive log parameter in question.
Cause: Multiple archive log destinations reference the same standby database, using different service names. This is not allowed.
Action: Remove one of the duplicate archive log destinations.
Cause: The managed standby database recovery operation has been canceled per user specified EXPIRE option of the RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE statement.
Action: No action required.
Cause: An archive log containing a FINISH recovery indicator was received by a standby database that has received archive logs in the future of the received archive log. Because of the possibility that these future archive logs have been applied to this standby database, the received archive log must be rejected.
Action: No action required.
Cause: The attempted operation failed because of a pending CANCEL of the managed standby recovery operation.
Action: Wait for the managed standby recovery session to end. Then retry the operation.
Cause: The attempted database operation is not allowed while the standby database is in 'no-data-loss' protected mode.
Action: Verify that the attempted database operation is warranted, ALTER DATABASE SET STANDBY DATABASE UNPROTECTED and re-issue the statement.
Cause: Use of the indicated attribute is illegal in the given context.
Action: Make the appropriate changes and re-issue the statement.
Cause: The use of a LGWR archive log dependency is not allowed when the primary is protected by a standby database, as this requires use of the standby redo log files.
Action: Remove the LGWR archive log dependency and use normal LGWR archival instead.
Cause: A RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE FINISH command has previously completed successfully. Another media recovery is not allowed.
Action: Issue one of these operations following a FINISH recovery:
ALTER DATABASE OPEN READ ONLY; ALTER DATABASE COMMIT TO SWITCHOVER TO PRIMARY;
Cause: An attempt was made to change the LGWR/ARCH or SYNC/ASYNC attributes for a destination that is participating in the standby protection mode of the database.
Action: No action required.
Cause: An attempt was made to change the standby database configuration when the primary database is in standby protected mode.
Action: The standby database must be added to the configuration before the primary database is opened.
Cause: An attempt was made to add a log file member that does not match the other member types. This problem typically occurs when adding a standby log file member to an online redo logfile group, or adding an online redo log file member to a standby redo log file group.
Action: Verify the log file group type using the TYPE
column of the V$LOG
fixed view.
Cause: An attempt was made to enable a new standby database destination when the primary database is in standby protected mode.
Action: The standby database must be added to the configuration before the primary database is opened.
Cause: The LGWR network server could not attach to remote host.
Action: The alert log contains more problem-specific information.
Cause: The LGWR network server could not detach from remote host.
Action: The alert log contains more problem-specific information.
Cause: The LGWR lost its connection to the network server.
Action: The alert log contains more problem-specific information.
Cause: The LGWR network server could not communicate with the remote host.
Action: The alert log contains more problem-specific information.
Cause: The LGWR network server could not switch to non-blocking mode.
Action: The alert log contains more problem-specific information.
Cause: The LGWR network server could not switch to blocking mode.
Action: The alert log contains more problem-specific information.
Cause: The LGWR network server could not switch to blocking mode.
Action: The alert log contains more problem-specific information.
Cause: Serial terminal recovery can always recover the standby database to the last consistent point in the redo stream. Parallel terminal recovery cannot.
Action: Retry with serial terminal recovery.
Cause: See alert log for more details.
Action: Copy missing archived logs from primary or another standby. Register the logs and re-issue the RECOVER...FINISH command. If the logs are not available, then issue the ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY SKIP
statement to ignore the standby redo log files.
Cause: An attempt to archive a Terminal End-Of-Redo archive log to a remote destination failed due to the existence, at the remote site, of archive logs containing REDO in the future of the Terminal EOR.
Cause: One of two situations can cause this error:
An active Remote File Server (RFS) process implies connectivity with the primary database which may indicate that a Terminal Incomplete Recovery operation is not warrented.
Action: Verify the Managed Standby environment and re-evaluate the necessity of a Terminal Incomplete Recovery operation.
Cause: The managed standby database recovery operation has been terminated per user specified THROUGH THREAD/SEQUENCE option of the RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE statement.
Action: No action required.
Cause: An attempt was made to shut down a standby database while media recovery was active.
Action: Cancel media recovery to proceed with the shutdown.
Cause: See alert log for more details.
Action: Try to resolve the problem. Retry terminal recovery. If the problem occurs repeatedly and cannot be resolved, then contact Oracle Support Services.
Cause: Logical standby called a skip procedure that requested for a particular statement not to be applied.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: Logical standby called a skip procedure that requested for a particular statement to be applied.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: Logical standby called a skip procedure that requested for a particular statement to be replaced with a new statement.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: The skip procedure returned conflicting or invalid values.
Action: Ensure that the new_statement output parameter is non-NULL when returning DBMS_LOGSTDBY.SKIP_ACTION_REPLACE, and NULL otherwise. Also ensure SKIP_ACTION is specified correctly.
Cause: A DDL statement has successfully committed on the logical standby database.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: A setting in the logical standby skip table indicates that this type of DDL should always be skipped.
Action: No action required; this informational statement is provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
Cause: This database has been previously configured as a Logical Standby database. A Logical Standby database is not capable of processing the requested operation.
Action: Ensure that you entered the command on the correct database as this database is a Logical Standby and is not capable of servicing the request.
Cause: A dictionary build is currently in progress. Only one build can be active at a time.
Action: Wait for the active build to complete before invoking a new build.
Cause: Failure to start the logical standby dictionary build process (LSP1).
Action: Check the accompanying messages and the background process trace file. Correct the problem mentioned in the messages. Then shut down and restart the instance. If the trace file mentions any other background process messages, then check the trace file for the mentioned process until the root message is found.
Cause: The logical standby dictionary build process terminated abnormally.
Action: Check the accompanying messages and the background process trace file. Correct the problem mentioned in the messages. Then shut down and restart the instance. If the trace file mentions any other background process messages, then check the trace file for the mentioned process until the root message is found.
Cause: The logical standby coordinator process terminated abnormally.
Action: Check the accompanying messages and the background process trace file. Correct the problem mentioned in the messages. Then shut down and restart the instance. If the trace file mentions any other background process messages, then check the trace file for the mentioned process until the root message is found.
Cause: Log apply services encountered a record in the archived redo log that could not be interpreted.
Action:
DBMS_LOGSTDBY.INSTANTIATE_TABLE
to re-create the table on the standby database or simply drop the table if it's unimportant.ALTER DATABASE START LOGICAL STANDBY APPLY;
current_scn
column in the DBA_LOGSTDBY_EVENTS

Action: Adjust the values of the initialization parameters PROCESSES
and PARALLEL_MAX_SERVERS
, or the MAX_SLAVES
parameter seen in the DBA_LOGSTDBY_PARAMETERS
view.
Cause: stop_on_ddl callout specified and DDL was encountered.
Action: Either disable stop_on_ddl callout or remove DDL.
Cause: A delay has been specified on the primary database for this destination.
Action: Either turn off the delay on the primary or use DBMS_LOGSTDBY.APPLY_UNSET('APPLY_DELAY');
to override.

Cause: The requested operation requires the Data Guard configuration to be enabled.
Action: Enable the Data Guard configuration and re-issue the request.
Cause: Some Data Guard broker operations require the given site to be shut down and restarted.
Action: If the client has not already done so, then shut down the Oracle instance at the given site and then restart it.
Cause: The Data Guard broker was unable to create the configuration file on permanent storage.
Action: Verify space, permissions, and filename as indicated by the DG_BROKER_CONFIG_FILE[1 | 2]
parameter and retry.
Cause: The Data Guard broker configuration file is either unavailable or does not exist.
Action: Verify that the configuration file was successfully created. If the DG_BROKER_CONFIG_FILE[1 | 2]
parameter was changed, then ensure the filename on disk and the parameter value match, there is space on the device, and you have the right permissions.
Cause: An attempt was made to change the Data Guard broker configuration file parameter while a DRC was enabled.
Action: Disable the configuration and shut down the Data Guard broker before changing this value. Also be sure to rename the file at the operating system level.
Cause: Switchover fails because the primary database resource and/or the designated standby database resource are offline.
Action: Check the states of the configuration, primary site, primary database resource, standby site, and standby database resource. Set their states to ONLINE if necessary.
Cause: This status is returned when the Broker terminates a user-initiated request. The broker will terminate all other current and pending requests when it begins processing a failover request. These other requests are terminated with this status.
Action: No action required.
Cause: A failure was encountered while the broker was updating the Data Guard broker configuration file on permanent storage.

Action: Check the Data Guard console log and DMON process trace file to determine why the DMON process is missing.
Cause: The specified NetSlave process did not terminate at the request of the Data Guard broker.
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
Cause: A request was made on a site that is not a member of the Data Guard configuration.
Action: Re-issue the request on a site that is a part of the configuration.
Cause: The Data Guard broker has detected two or more primaries in the configuration and cannot continue.
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
Cause: The Data Guard broker on this site has detected a mismatch in configuration generation. This can occur when the primary site has a stale configuration.
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
Cause: The Data Guard broker has detected a stale configuration during initialization on this site.
Action: The broker will automatically resolve this situation once the primary site completes its initialization.
Cause: This error is returned when a failover request specifies a different site than the site the client is currently connected to.
Action: Explicitly connect to the site you wish to failover to and re-issue the failover request.
Cause: The Data Guard broker detected disabled, required resources prior to performing an operation that needs those resources to be enabled.
Action: Enable all required resources and re-issue the request.
Cause: An attempt was made to modify a resource that can only be changed while that resource is disabled.
Action: Disable the resource and re-issue the request.
Cause: The Data Guard broker on this site has detected a mismatch in configuration Unique ID. This can occur if the original configuration was re-created while this site was disconnected from the network or the same site was added to two different configurations.
Action: Make sure the site belongs to only one configuration. Remove Data Guard broker configuration files and restart the server.
Cause: The Data Guard broker was unable to execute the OnDescribe function in the named package.
Action: Verify that the named package is loaded on the primary site. Also verify that the OnDescribe function is in the package.
Cause: The Data Guard broker was unable to delete the template because the template is still being used by one or more resources.
Action: Delete all resources using the template before deleting the template. You cannot delete the database template.
Cause: The named property does not exist.
Action: Specify a valid property name and re-issue the request.
Cause: The Data Guard broker detected a failure on one or more sites.
Action: Locate the sites with a failure status and correct it.
Cause: The Data Guard broker detected a warning status on one or more sites.
Action: Locate the sites with a warning status and correct it.
Cause: The Data Guard Broker detected a failure on one or more resources on a site.
Action: Locate the resources with a failure status and correct it.
Cause: The Data Guard broker detected a warning status on one or more resources on a site.
Action: Locate the resources with a warning status and correct it.
Cause: The Data Guard broker aborted an operation at the user's request.
Action: No action required.
Cause: The string value for the named attribute is too long.
Action: Use a shorter string.
Cause: The site received a directive to change its initialization state or a change in its configuration before it has completed initialization.
Action: Wait until the site has completed initialization before issuing requests to modify run-time state or configuration.
Cause: A request to enable an object that has an ancestor that is disabled was received by the server. The Data Guard broker has enabled the object to the extent that it can, but cannot fully enable the object until its ancestor is enabled.
Action: Determine the ancestor object that is disabled and enable that ancestor prior to enabling the child object.
Cause: The Data Guard broker returns this error when the object identifier specified in the request is invalid or unknown. For example, this error is returned if an invalid or unknown site object identifier is specified in a request that requires a site object identifier.
Action: Verify that a valid object identifier was specified in the request and then re-issue the request.
Cause: The document response cannot be returned because the size of the document is too large. This can occur when displaying the Data Guard console log.
Action: View the console log on the given site directly.
Cause: This status is returned when the Data Guard broker could not reach a standby site during routine health check.
Action: This typically indicates a network problem where the standby site is unable to respond to the primary within the predefined time frame.
Cause: This status is returned when the Data Guard broker could not reach one or more standby sites for either a delete site or a delete configuration operation.
Action: This typically indicates a network problem where the standby site is unable to respond to the primary. In the event of this situation, examine the Data Guard broker log file on the primary site to determine which standby sites could not be reached. Then for each standby site not reached, connect to that site and shut down the broker by setting the DG_BROKER_START
initialization parameter to false
. After the broker has been shut down on the standby site, locate the Data Guard broker configuration files from the standby site's DG_BROKER_CONFIG_FILE[1 | 2]
parameter values and delete them.
Cause: This status is returned when an attempt is made to add a site whose host and SID names match those of an existing site.
Action: Verify that you have specified a unique host and SID name pair for the new site you wish to add. This can be done by checking that there are no sites with the same host and SID names.
Cause: This status is returned when the Broker determines that there are multiple site objects referring to the same physical or material site.
Action: Examine the host names, SID names, and connect descriptors of all sites in the configuration and verify that there are not two or more sites that refer to the same physical site. If you detect this situation, then correct the site definition to eliminate the ambiguity.
Cause: This status is returned when the Broker detects a stale sequence value during bootstrap or during health check. The sequence value is changed each time a role change occurs. A site that is unavailable for the role change operation will end up with a stale sequence number. Should that site attempt to rejoin the configuration, the broker will determine that it missed a role change and disable that site. The broker permanently disables the site since it may no longer be a viable standby site for the new primary.
Action: Examine the configuration and the sites that were permanently disabled to determine if they require manual intervention.
Cause: This status is returned when the Broker detects a network protocol version number mismatch. This can happen if the sites in question are not running the same release of Oracle. The broker will permanently disable the sites that do not have the same network protocol version number as the primary.
Action: Examine the release of Oracle installed on all sites to make sure they are identical. Once the Oracle releases are the same on all sites, delete and re-add the sites that were permanently disabled.
Cause: This status is returned when the Broker rejects a write operation requested by the client when the primary site is not reachable from the site the request is made. All write operations made to the DataGuard configuration must be processed by the primary site.
Action: Check your network connection from the site your client is connected to, to the primary site. Alternatively, you can connect your client to a different site in the DataGuard Configuration and try your request again.
Cause: This status is returned when the broker fails to enable an object (most typically a standby site). You can expect to see this status when attempting to enable a standby site that:
Action: To correct the problem, try one of these actions:
HOST_NAME
and INSTANCE_NAME
columns of V$INSTANCE
.Cause: This status is returned in the following situations:
Action:
Cause: The Data Guard Broker protection mode saved in metadata is inconsistent with the actual database setting.
Action: Reset the protection mode through the Data Guard Broker.
Cause: The actual protection level supported by the standby database is different from the protection mode set on the primary. This is likely caused by the log transport problems.
Action: Check the database alert logs and Data Guard Broker console logs for more details. Check the log transport status. Make sure at least one standby log transport is supporting the protection mode and that the network to the standby has no problems.
Cause: Request to modify or query the resource failed.
Action: Check the Data Guard console log for the reason for the failure, and re-issue the request.
Cause: Request to modify or query the resource resulted in a warning.
Action: Check the console log for the reason for the warning, and re-issue the request if necessary.

statement.
Cause: The Data Guard broker configuration files do not exist or the resource guard cannot access the Data Guard metadata.
Action: Check the Data Guard console log for further details.
Cause: This situation occurs when database resource guard attempts to set database configuration property values into the database by issuing ALTER SYSTEM
or ALTER DATABASE
statements. Typical causes of this error are:
Action: Check the Data Guard console log to see which property has the problem and reset the property correctly.
Cause: Standby redo logs are missing when needed for certain log transport modes.
Action: Check the Data Guard documentation to create standby redo logs on the standby.
Cause: An invalid property value was entered.
Action: Reset the value to a correct one.
Cause: The database may not be mounted, or the query of V$STANDBY_LOG
failed.
Action: Bring the database to an online state, or fix the problem during the query of V$STANDBY_LOG
.
Cause: The values of one or more configurable properties are inconsistent with database in-memory settings or SPFILE settings. This may be caused by a user operation on database outside of the Data Guard broker control.
Action: Query property InconsistentProperties on the site or check the Data Guard console log to find which properties are inconsistent. Reset these properties to make them consistent with the database settings.
Cause: The logical standby database guard is OFF.
Action: Issue the ALTER DATABASE GUARD ALL
statement to turn the guard ON and verify that Data Guard health check error/warning is cleared.
Cause: Primary database has database guard ON, which is not normal.
Action: Issue the ALTER DATABASE GUARD NONE
statement to turn the guard OFF and verify that Data Guard health check error/warning is cleared.
Cause: In the act of failover or switchover, the database resource guard may detect that reinstantiation of the database is necessary due to the impending role change. This occurs when the database resource guard recognizes a situation in which the database in question cannot be a viable standby database for the new primary database.
Action: Reinstantiate the database on the site indicated by the broker and then re-add that site to your broker configuration.
Cause: Importing existing database settings into the Data Guard properties failed for one or more properties. The cause may be that the database is not mounted or open, or the connection to the standby database being imported is down.
Action: Check the Data Guard console log to find more details about the problem.
Cause: Server parameter file is not being used in the database, or the resource guard failed to retrieve the status of the SPFILE.
Action: Issue a CREATE SPFILE='...' FROM PFILE='...'
statement to create an SPFILE, and restart the database to use the SPFILE.
Cause: Terminal recovery on the standby failed during the graceful failover operation.
Action: Check Data Guard console log and alert logs to see more details on the reason of the failure.
Cause: Either the Data Guard metadata indicates the physical apply service is turned off, or the recovery process MRP0 is not running. In either of the cases, physical apply related properties cannot be set.
Action: Turn on the physical apply service through Data Guard broker, then reset the physical apply related property again.
Cause: Log transport service for some site is currently set to ALTERNATE while no other destinations is set to alternate to this site.
Action: Check the Data Guard console log for further details. Reset database state to turn on log transport again if necessary.
Cause: The values of one or more log transport related configurable properties of a standby database resource are inconsistent with the primary's log transport service settings. This may be caused by a user operation on database outside of the Data Guard broker control.
Action: Query property InconsistentLogXptProps on the primary or Check the Data Guard console log to find which properties are inconsistent. Reset these properties on the appropriate standby to make them consistent with the primary's log transport settings.
Cause: Data Guard Broker does not allow the primary site to be an alternate archival destination for a standby site.
Action: Set property Alternate to empty or to the name of a standby site.
Cause: Failed to query a database table or fixed view. The database may not be open or mounted.
Action: Check Data Guard console log for more details.
Cause: Data Guard Broker health check detects that one or more configuration properties in metadata have invalid values. They may be entered during the disabled period of database resource or through other means.
Action: Check Data Guard console log for more details on which properties have invalid values and reset them through Data Guard Broker.
Cause: The standby database resource guard rejected the attempt to change the LogXptMode configuration property for the standby database resource. The rejection was necessary since doing so would violate the overall protection mode for the configuration.
Action: If the LogXptMode configuration property must be changed for the specified standby database resource, then first downgrade the overall protection mode for the configuration. After that operation has completed, you will be able to change the LogXptMode configuration property for the standby database resource.
Cause: Supplemental logging is not turned on while there is a logical standby database in the configuration. This could happen either6854// on the primary or on the logical standby that is being switched over to the primary.
Action: Check Data Guard console log for more details. Issue ALTER DATABASE ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG DATA (PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE INDEX) COLUMNS
