In 12c databases, ORA-12805, ORA-07445 [qertqistart] or ORA-600 [15803] errors may occur depending on bug 25694206. User operation cannot be completed due to the closing of parallel processes.
The problem is corrected in version 12.2.0.2, and the following workraound can be applied to the problem.
To resolve the problem, the parameter “_px_wif_extend_distribution_keys” must be set to false.

Much appreciated.

This solution definitely resolved the issue. But I wanted to know as how this parameter is affecting the programs throwing ORA-12805. We were getting this error only from OEM and no error witnessed in alertlog file of the target database nor the em database. Only seen below events in em UI
