ORA-00060: deadlock resolved & ORA-12012: error on auto execute of job

We have recently upgraded a dataset to 12c and started receiving below errors in alert.log

ORA-00060: deadlock resolved; details in file /home/oracle/diag/rdbms/ORCL/ORCL/trace/ORCL_j001_200521.trc
ORA-12012: error on auto execute of job "SYS"."ORA$AT_SA_SPC_SY_5723"
ORA-00060: deadlock detected while waiting for resource < ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SPACE", line 2741 < ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_HEAT_MAP_INTERNAL", line 716 < ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_HEAT_MAP_INTERNAL", line 1164 < ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_HEAT_MAP", line 228 < ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SPACE", line 2747

After investigation found that there is a bug in 12.2 Release and Oracle working to it. You can refer below oracle support notes on this.

Bug 24687075 - SPACE ADVISOR TASKS/JOBS HITTING DEADLOCKS WITH GATHER DB STATS JOBS
In 12.2 Auto Space Advisor Job Fails With ORA-60 (Doc ID 2321020.1)

If you have setup alerts for ORA- errors then either you add exclusions to your script or you can run below command to disable the job Until Bug 24687075 gets fixed

SQL> EXEC DBMS_AUTO_TASK_ADMIN.DISABLE('AUTO SPACE ADVISOR',NULL, NULL);
