现象：
ADG无法切换：验证时就报错 ORA-16467
记录问题，顺便展现一次troubleshooting的心路历程。
具体查询：
在主库操作，
@primary
切换验证：

代码语言：javascript复制SQL> select error from v$archive_dest where dest_id= 2;

-----------------------------------------------------------------但是，如果去查v$archive_dest_status，就会发现问题，说有可解决的GAP：
代码语言：javascript复制SQL> select dest_id, status, gap_status from v$archive_dest_status where dest_id = 2;
DEST_ID STATUS GAP_STATUS
---------- --------- ------------------------
2 VALID RESOLVABLE GAP但是去备库查询，
@standby,
ADG并没有任何延迟：

- Bug 33663444 - DataGuard: "alter database switchover verify" fails with ORA-16467 (Doc ID 33663444.8)
可是很快也排除掉：现象细节不完全匹配，另外这个bug正好在19.16已经修复：
代码语言：javascript复制[oracle@bogon ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch lsinventory|grep 33663444

代码语言：javascript复制REDISCOVERY INFORMATION:
SELECT GAP_STATUS FROM V$ARCHIVE_DEST_STATUS with show unresolvable gap.
Workaround
temporarily re-enable the disabled redo thread首先，我们查V$ARCHIVE_DEST_STATUS已经确认是resolvable gap，不匹配但是也有问题。
然后redo thread的re-enable，这个workaround让我去想到查询redo的thread，结果发现果然有些异常：
代码语言：javascript复制SQL> select * from v$log;

5 2 0 104857600 512 1 YES UNUSED 0 0 0我这里目前主库是单实例，而备库才是RAC，可是，为何主库的redo居然会有 thread#=2 的redo？
虽然都是unused，但出现在这里就很奇怪！
不知道谁动了这个环境，想不起来做过这样的测试。但可以肯定的是，完全可以把这个不该存在的thread删除掉！
直接删除会报错：
