数据库环境为：rhel6.8 64bit oracle 11.2.0.3.11
凌晨1点起床，执行计划内的数据库操作。将几个大表在线重定义为分区表，以便于空间释放。在执行CAN_REDEF_TABLE是正常，但是在执行START_REDEF_TABLE时报错了，错误信息如下：
ORA-42008: 实例化重新定义时出错
ORA-22060: 参数 [] 是一个无效或未初始化的数值
ORA-06512: 在 "SYS.DBMS_SNAPSHOT_UTL", line 1613
ORA-06512: 在 line 1
ORA-06512: 在 "SYS.DBMS_REDEFINITION", line 56
ORA-06512: 在 "SYS.DBMS_REDEFINITION", line 1490
ORA-06512: 在 line 2
当时第一反应是难道表有问题，以前遇到过表上注释太长导致重定义报错的bug。我换了个表再次执行这些操作，在START_REDEF_TABLE时还是报错了。
没法了，情况紧急，先去百度搜索了一番，又去谷歌搜索了一番，mos也找了，毛都没找到一根，，，单独的ORA-42008，ORA-22060这两个错误多，但是连在一起的时候几乎没有。
不过网上搜索还是有点收获，借鉴了别人的排查错误的方法。有人用10046来跟踪session来发现报错，我也采用试试。
不过情况有变，别人的都是有明确的报错信息，但是在我的10046报告里面没有。。。没办法了，我根据这个报错信息ORA-06512:
在 "SYS.DBMS_SNAPSHOT_UTL", line
1613在10046去查找，找是哪儿执行了DBMS_SNAPSHOT_UTL。最后找到了这个地方sys.dbms_snapshot_utl.get_log_name，我将这个存储过程的参数补全，测试了下，报错就是ORA-22060，到此可以确定是dbms_snapshot_utl的问题了。但是在系统中没有看到任何失效对象，所以在数据库内部的这个包本身是没问题的。
最后的解决方法是经验，这个库以前遇到过dbms_stats运行报错的情况，说一个bug补丁不存在，http://blog.itpub.net/29822273/viewspace-2139924/。当时查过mos，说是因为数据库中的包与实际程序不匹配，比如打补丁后没有运行catbundle
psu
apply。因为这个库是从windows平台迁移至linux平台的，两个平台当时没有完全匹配的小版本，所以只能找了一个与windows版本最接近的linux版本来作为迁移的目标版本。然后升级完了也没运行catbundle
psu apply。
由此想到的办法是重新安装这个包，oracle的安装某些包是有特定步骤的，我怕踩雷，到处搜索了一番，还是没找到重建dbms_snapshot_utl的方法。最后，时间越来越到约定的3点锁表时间了，心一横，直接用grep方法在admin里面去找，发现了两个脚本：
prvtsnap.plb:CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY dbms_snapshot_utl wrapped
prvtsnps.plb:CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE dbms_snapshot_utl wrapped
一个是package，一个是package body。注意要先运行package脚本，再运行body脚本，否者会报错。
执行完了，在线重定义操作未报错了。
定于凌晨1点执行的在线重定义普通表为分区表的操作，一直延迟到了凌晨3点才正式开始。。。。。。
最后闲下来还是在mos找到了一篇相关文章，之前死活找不到。。。搜索还是一门技艺。。。
