ORA-38760: This database instance failed to turn on flashback database

昨晚學習ORACLE用HR用戶執行：create table reg_copy as select * from regions;竟然一片空白沒有任何反應，不想強行退出，因而用ORACLE用戶來終止會話的方式來處理，前後用了三種方式：

第一種：select sid,serial# from v$session where username='HR';

         而後用：ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION 'sid,serial#' IMMEDIATE。

第二種：ALTER SYSTEM DISCONNECT SESSION 'sid,serial#' IMMEDIATE

第三種：用如下命令查到系統級別的進程號，而後殺掉。

SET LINESIZE 100

COLUMN spid FORMAT A10

COLUMN username FORMAT A10

COLUMN program FORMAT A45

SELECT s.inst_id,

       s.sid,

       s.serial#,

       p.spid,

       s.username,

       s.program

FROM   gv$session s

       JOIN gv$process p ON p.addr = s.paddr AND p.inst_id = s.inst_id

WHERE  s.type != 'BACKGROUND';

結果今天起來起動數據庫就有以下提示了：

不知跟昨天的事有沒有關係，先記錄下來。晚些作實現進一步驗證。先記錄處理此故障的步驟。

參考大牛的文章，說是跟還原點有關係。

結論：

應該是因爲數據庫非一致性關閉致使的38760錯誤，若是重啓flashback都報錯38714，就刪除還原點後，再重啓數據庫，能夠正常啓動了。之後仍是正常關機保險。
