ORA-19502: write error on file & ORA-16038 (with ORA-19502,ORA-00312)

Cause: Of these error mostly disk is full in that case to skip some blocks then generating the error. So keep monitor the server Mount point size.

ORA-19502: write error on file "", block number (block size=) in Dataguard

We have received an alert in the morning that the Primary Database is out of Sync. Primary and Standby are with difference of 9 archives.

I have logged on to the primary and identified the below error.

ORA-19502: write error on file "", block number  (block size=)


SQL> set line 200
col DEST_NAME for a50
col BINDING for a10

select DEST_ID,DEST_NAME,STATUS,BINDING,ERROR from v$ARCHIVE_DEST where status<>'INACTIVE';

   DEST_ID DEST_NAME                                          STATUS    BINDING    ERROR
---------- -------------------------------------------------- --------- ---------- -----------------------------------------------------------------
         1 LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1                                 VALID     OPTIONAL
         2 LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2                                 ERROR     OPTIONAL   ORA-19502: write error on file "", block number  (block size=)


In the above output the STATUS column is showing ERROR.
I have logged on to the Standby database and found the archive mount point is full. I removed the applied archives and freed up some space. How to check Sync Status on Standby

Defer'd and Enable'd the shipping on Primary Database.

SQL> alter system set log_archive_dest_state_2=defer;

System Altered.

SQL> alter system set log_archive_dest_state_2=enable;

System Altered.

SQL> set line 200
SQL> col DEST_NAME for a50
SQL> col BINDING for a10


SQL> select DEST_ID,DEST_NAME,STATUS,BINDING,ERROR from v$ARCHIVE_DEST where status<>'INACTIVE'
/
   DEST_ID DEST_NAME                                          STATUS    BINDING    ERROR
---------- -------------------------------------------------- --------- ---------- -----------------------------------------------------------------
         1 LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1                                 VALID     OPTIONAL
         2 LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2                                 VALID     OPTIONAL

Now the STATUS column is showing Valid and the ERROR column is null.

Archive started shipping to Standby Database and got applied.
