监听日志配置

$ more /oracle/product/10g/network/admin/listener.ora
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
      (ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/product/10g)
      (PROGRAM = extproc)
    )
  )

LISTENER =
  (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xifenfei)(PORT = 1521))
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC0))
    )
  )

解决方法

--监听文件中增加
SUBSCRIBE_FOR_NODE_DOWN_EVENT_<listener_name>=OFF

--reload监听
lsnrctl reload

补充说明

SUBSCRIBE_FOR_NODE_DOWN_EVENT_<listener_name>=OFF will prevent the messages 
from being written to the log file and may also prevent the TNS Listener from hanging periodically. 

Setting SUBSCRIBE_FOR_NODE_DOWN_<listener_name> to OFF disables 
a necessary RAC functionality(Oracle Notification Service[ONS],fast application notification[FAN]). 
The above workaround is recommended only for non-RAC environments. 
The issue may be present in all 10g and newer installations.
