Oracle10g的问题还真多，一个接一个。之所以标题说这个是问题而不是bug，是因为metalink说这是10g功能的增强而不是bug。
在做主备切换的时候，需要将备库的联机日志文件清除(clear online redo logfile)，为了加快switchover的速度，Oracle10g在将备库置于manged standby状态的时候就提前将这个clear的动作做了，这个想法是好的，只是实现有点糟糕，会在alert里记录错误一堆错误：
Errors in file /u01/oracle/admin/ning/bdump/ning_mrp0_319584.trc:
ORA-00367: checksum error in log file header
ORA-00316: log 1 of thread 1, type 0 in header is not log file

ORA-00312: online log 1 thread 1: ‘/u01/oracle/oradata/ning/redo01_01.dbf’
Clearing online redo logfile 1 complete
Oracle不承认这是bug，不过还是给出了解决方法：首先要在备库创建online redo logfile，然后设置log_file_name_convert参数，即使主备库日志文件的路径和名字都一样也要设置，不然还是会报ORA-19527。

Cause
This is in fact an Enhancement to the Data Guard Technology introduced in 10.2.0.
The Goal here is to improve speed of Switchover and Failover. In previous Versions a Role Transition would require to clear the Online Redo Logfiles before it can become a Primary Database. Now we attempt to clear the Online Redo Logfiles when starting Managed Recovery.
If the Files exist then they will be cleared, but if they do not exist we report the Error, attempts to create the Online Redo Logfiles and starts Recovery. Even if this is not possible because of different Structure and log_file_name_convert is not set, MRP does not fail; it only raises these Errors.
As an extra Enhancement if the Online Redologs do exist you must specify the log_file_name_convert Parameter even if there is no difference in the Name. This has been implemented to reduce the chances that the Primary Online Redologs are cleared when MRP starts. It is the equivalent of asking - Are you sure you want the logs to be called this....
If the log_file_name_convert parameter is not set then the ORA-19527 is reported and the log file is not cleared at this time..
Solution
Solution to stop both of these errors is to ensure log_file_name_convert is set correctly.
