Oracle Database Error ACFS-05959: Operation Restricted During Role Reversal
Description
This error indicates that an attempted operation on an Oracle ACFS (Automatic Storage Management Cluster File System) resource is not permitted because the system is currently undergoing a role reversal process. This typically occurs during a Data Guard switchover/failover or an ACFS primary/standby transition, where the system state is temporarily unstable or locked to ensure data consistency.
Error Message
Operation not allowed during role reversal.
Known Causes
4 known causesActive Data Guard Transition
The Oracle database is actively performing a Data Guard switchover or failover operation, changing the primary/standby roles, which temporarily restricts ACFS operations.
ACFS High Availability Transition
The ACFS file system or volume is in the process of switching its primary or standby role within an ACFS high-availability configuration.
System State Lock
The system or specific ACFS resource is in an intermediate or locked state during a role change, preventing new operations until the transition completes.
Premature Operation Attempt
An ACFS operation was attempted immediately after initiating a role reversal, before the entire process had successfully completed and stabilized.
