MMNL absent for 1201 secs; Foregrounds taking over
首先我们从MMNL可以知道，这是一个Oracle10g的数据库。
MMNL是Oracle10g引入的一个新的后台进程，其全拼名字为Memory Monitor Light ，是AWR(Automatic Workload Repository )的组件之一。
这个错误的含义是，MMNL过长时间未激活，前台接替了它的工作。
通常这是一个可以忽略的错误，不会对数据库产生什么影响；但是在某些情况下，该错误会导致数据库无法登陆或访问，需要重新启动数据库才能解决。
这类错误只在10gR1中存在，在10gR2中已经修正。

以上是在盖国强网站上查到的原文，Metalink上也有类似的文章。可是，我的库已经是R2版本，应该不会有类似问题。
在Metalink上发现如下文章
Applies to:
Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition - Version: 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.3
This problem can occur on any platform.

Cause
The maxbytes of the datafiles was reduced lower than the bytes value.

Maxbytes should not be allowed to be lower than bytes. This is infact a bug which has already been logged.
Bug 5470031 has been raised for this issue on how the maxsize is allowed to be smaller than the actual filesize using the command ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE ...AUTOEXTEND MAXSIZE
As of now, at the time of writing this note ( Oct'07 ) , this bug is still under development/resolution phase.
Solution
Either Turn off the autoextend option for the datafile or
Increase the Maxbytes to be greater than the bytes value.

再查看我的库，发现Undo Tablespace的确是自动增长，取消自动增长选项，观察是否再次出现类似情况
