"gcs drm freeze in enter server mode" points to the instance crash.

This is two node RAC and exadata.
But yes these application queries running on one node only, so not sure
how this can be impacted such way. And also why suddenly it happened?

Is this RAC or Exadata ? DRM node moves can be expensive , and if your
interconnect is dropping packets it becomes worse . Since you are getting
cell metrics, it implies Exadata . I would check gcs_server_processes and
high_priority_processes to make sure they are set properly .

Hi!
"gcs drm freeze in enter server mode" is specific to RAC. It seems to be
triggered by instance leaving or joining the cluster. Brownouts during
dynamic remastering is expected behaviour.

Hello ,
It's version 19C of the oracle database. We got complaints from the
application team of sudden slowness and thus app traffic automatically
redirected to another active DB replica.While looking into the DB side, we
do observe high wait events from wait class 'Other' and 'Application' in
OEM. It lasted for exactly 2-3 minutes as the application team is
complaining about. And then fetching the "ash wait chain" and "ash top" ,
it's pointing to significantly high wait event like "reliable message"
(~75%), "enq: KO - fast object checkpoint","gcs drm freeze in enter server
mode" from same wait class 'other' and 'application'.
Below is the ASH top and ASH wait chain from the issue duration of
~5minutes interval. And the select query which is coming on top. And table
CB is holding just ~41 rows in it.
https://gist.github.com/oraclelearner/44394ab8206fc7bd51041eb3d45bdf9f
And also the top query which is showing in "ash top" is a SELECT query
and it does have a FTS in it (which is suggesting why the checkpoint
waits), however, this select query doesn't have any plan change observed in
it or not any high execution. And also we are not seeing any specific
blocking session for this. The "wait chain" showing LMON/lock monitor
process in one of the lines also does point to some event like "Wait for
msg sends to complete ''. Not yet able to figure out how these are related
to this issue. Still trying to understand what could have caused such a
scenario?
This SELECT query executes 100's of thousands of times in ~15minutes
window. So is it possible that this query(or say its underlying table CB)
might have thrashed out from buffer cache to disk and fetched data from
disk rather than cache for that time and this causing all these sort of
issues? And considering this table is very small (~1MB in size and holding
just ~41 rows), should we consider putting it as inmemory by changing
"inmemory_clause_default" to 'BASE_LEVEL' and "INMEMORY_SIZE" to 16GB ?
