网上可以看到不少有关oracle运行时误删数据文件的讨论,对于使用rm操作系统命令删除的文件,可以通过copy文件描述符来恢复文件,当然这种方式的前提还是数据库还在运行。
但在DB还在运行时直接copy文件描述符来恢复文件,这样操作其实有几个问题:
copy过程中需要额外的存储空间
在数据库checkpoint发起之前,对误删数据文件的所有copy操作必须完成,否则来不及copy的数据文件将会因为实例终止而完全丢失,还在copy中的数据文件无效
如果误删的文件包括online redo或undo,这种方式很可能无效
恢复数据文件的操作必须将对应的表空间下线或关闭数据库,这势必影响线上业务
深入思考一下,数据库进程读写数据文件,是通过文件描述符(以下简称FD)来操作硬盘上对应的数据文件的。既然这些误删的数据文件当前还可以在内存中读写,通过FD操作文件,而且这些误删的数据文件本身占用的空间也并没有释放出来,那是否可以通过某种类似undelete的方式将FD的内容保留会原先的硬盘上呢?
其实github上有多个项目就是实现这个的,包括fdlink、vfs-undelete等。但这些方案也有问题:
需要编译内核模块来实现。但是这一点,这个要求就比较高,毕竟服务器上一般是不会安装内核源代码的,而且即使要下载也需要时间。
需要root权限
实际效果难说。我实测下来,centos5.6的系统,默认内核2.6.18-238.el5, 删除单个数据文件,用fdlink和vfs-undelete都不能成功恢复。
所以这个方法基本不可行。
那是否还有其他方式呢?其实再深入思考下,既然FD还能完全操作这些误删的数据文件,完全可以把FD直接当做数据文件来处理。为了保持原来的数据文件路径不变,我们可以建立一个soft link,把数据文件链接回FD,这样所有的oracle进程也就可以找到数据文件,这样误删操作也不会影响到正常业务进行。
但这样做的问题又来了,毕竟FD不是硬盘上的文件,DB或系统重启、断电都会使FD失效,误删的数据文件还是会可能丢失,而直接copy FD生成的数据文件又有本文开头说的那些问题,怎么操作才能兼顾呢?
解决这个问题其实也并不麻烦。只要了解FD的特性,只要还有进程持有该FD,对应的数据文件内容就就可以读写。我们可以使用tail命令来始终占用这个FD,那么即使DB关闭或者数据文件offline了,这个FD对应的数据文件内容还是可以读取的,而因为DB已经关闭或数据文件已经offline了,自然这些数据文件也就没有写操作了,此时copy出来的数据文件才是干净安全的。
下面是对这个过程一个演示(test表在表空间users01.dbf上,重要操作加亮显示):
