最近的alert日志中碰到了ORA-27090的错误信息，其错误提示为Unable to reserve kernel resources for asynchronous disk I/O。根据这个提示来看是跟异步I/O相关的内核参数问题。下面是这个问题的描述与解决。
1、故障错误信息

2、故障分析
#调用oerr，没有获得比较有价值的信息，如下：
SUSE11b:oracle:orcl102 > oerr ora 27090
27090, 00000, "Unable to reserve kernel resources for asynchronous disk I/O"
// *Cause: The system call to reserve kernel resources for asynchronous I/O
// has failed.
// *Action: Check errno
#进一步查看trace文件，注，当前数据库版本为10.2.0.5，OS为suse 11 sp3

3、故障解决
#根据ORA-27090: MESSAGE 27090 NOT FOUND; (文档 ID 579108.1)文档，我们修改内核参数fs.aio-max-nr
#由于此数据库为RAC环境下，因此同时调整了2个节点，以下为调整后的情形。
suse11a:~ # grep max-nr /etc/sysctl.conf
#fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
fs.aio-max-nr = 3145728
suse11b:~ # grep max-nr /etc/sysctl.conf
#aio-max-nr = 1048576
fs.aio-max-nr = 3145728
suse11a:~ # sysctl -p
suse11b:~ # sysctl -p
#配置完毕后可以通过cluvy校验
#几日后观察alert日志，未发现该类错误。
