11gr2, HP-UX, 64-bit. From last one week, we are seeing tremendous increase in archive-log growth. Its comes almost around 110GB per a day (db size=600g). I don't think its usual.Alertlog is clean and we don't see any alerts. Remedy app is built on this db and its creating tables on fly with LOB columns and indexes on them. As a first step. shall I disable logging for indexes on LOB columns ?

I turned on ARCHIVELOG in my main database, anticipating GoldenGate replications and standing up a physical standby database. However, during the process I forgot to create a new SPFILE for my database, meaning that the next time the database cycled, the archive log destination would revert to the Oracle default (rather than the mount point I had set up to receive them) $ORACLE_BASE/fast_recovery_area
. I discovered this because my database hung..... In looking at the ALERT LOG, I discovered that the logs were going to fast_recovery_area, and it had run out of room. OK, so I did an alter system set db_recovery_file_dest_size= 5G scope=both; at which point in time I was notified that no active SPFILE existed! I moved out all of the logfiles that were in the fast_recovery_area, but the database seemed to still think that it was full.
I've managed to get everything fixed and put back together, but my remaining question is: After I freed up all sorts of space in the fast_recovery_area, why did/does the database still think that area is full?
how can I do an archivelog dump?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to do a once off backup of an oracle database. I have followed instructions to do standard backups and when actually running the RMAN backup I got a ORA-19602: cannot backup or copy active file in NOARCHIVELOG mode.
No problem: I read that you need to execute the following commands in RMAN to ensure a clean shutdown/startup of the database to get past this problem: run {shutdown immediate;startup mount, etc } ...problem is - this code shuts down the database and then I cannot restart it using startup mount as it starts with this TNS listener errors. So I have restart through services but then I get the NOARCHIVELOG error cropping up again.
I'm getting quite frustrated with this. I don't need an archive/redo log - I just need the current state (snapshot) of the database with all the datafiles / procedures/functions in it...a once off - but I can't seem to get this working.
i have changed the log_archive_dest_1 to another drive (suppose D ) than Oracle installed disk
created tables in scott ,
alter system switch logfile;
so archive log was der in the new destination i delete that archivelog from D and pasted to drive E ( cut paste ) start rman , crosschecked archivelogs Now , i want to tell Rman that recover that archivelog from E and then recover

i have one question regarding archivelog and backup if i take just backup excluding archivelogs like = RMAN>backup database; (not plus archivelog ) now when even i recover database using backup , will it also recover changes that was in archives?
View 7 Replies View RelatedWe have EM (Cloud 12c) initiated scheduled backup jobs that perform (all below are online backups, obviously archivelog mode)
- level 0 Incremental 3AM on Sunday - with options backup all archive logs, delete input, delete obsolete
- level 1 Incremental (non cumulative) 3AM every other day - same options
Recovery window is set to 3 days, other options below:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 3 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK BACKUP TYPE TO COMPRESSED BACKUPSET PARALLELISM 2;
[code]....
Everything appears to be working normally (archive logs are being backed up and once they are the archive logs themselves are being deleted from the FRA), but I'm having some trouble understanding the behavior of the delete obsolete.
With a recovery window of 3 days, on Monday at 11AM my expectation would be that I would find in backups the following:
- level 0s from day before (Sunday) and the previous Sunday (8 days prior)
- all level 1s from previous Sunday on (so Mon-Sat and this morning)
- archivelog backups from Friday until this morning
What I'm not understanding is that I'm seeing archivelog backups from last Monday, Tuesday, etc. - i would have thought these would have gone obsolete based on my recovery window, yet when I run report obsolete in RMAN nothing is showing up.

HOW CAN GENERATE SEQUENCE/SERIAL NUMBER OF SAME CATEGORY EMPLOYEES AND INSERT INTO TABLE NEMP?
Here is my situation.
1. I generate file_name through a function.
2. File name like File_DD_MM_YY_FLXXX.
3. Now this FLXXX is the filenumber. It will be 1 for the 1st run of the day and for each of the new run it will be +1. Again next day it will start from 1.
So right now I am using a sequence and resetting it at 12 AM to 0. Is it a good approach to solve the scenario?
I wanted to copy some archive log files between 2 DB Server.Steps:
1) Edited the Local and Remote DB's TNSNAMES file and modifyied like below.
bookstore =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.80.100.28)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = BOOKSTORE)
)
)
2) Created a Source Directory --> DR1
3) Created a Target Directory --> DR2
4) Created a DB Link
CREATE DATABASE LINK LINK1 CONNECT TO <username of the Remote DB> IDENTIFIED BY <Password> USING '<Remote DB Name taken in the TNSFILE>.
5) In the Local Server I had written the below command.
create or replace procedure proc1 is
cursor c1 is select recid,substr(name,37) "ARCH_FILE" from v$archived_log;
var1 c1%rowtype;
begin
open c1;
fetch c1 into var1;

It is working, but not coping the Files from Local To the Remote.
I have a standby database in which I am backing up my database from. I also backup my archivelogs on my primary site as well as the control file. My issue is that I cannot find the correct RMAN command that will allow me to delete the actual backupsets from disk after say 7 days.
I know how to delete automatically the actual archivelog files, but not how to only have 7 days of archivelog backupsets available at any one given time.
May I know what is the command for rman to backup and delete single archive log?

ORA-16401: archivelog rejected by RFS
Cause: An attempt was made to re-archive an existing archivelog. This usually happens because either a multiple primary database or standby database(s) or both are trying to archive to this standby database.
Action: See alert log and trace file for more details. No action is necessary; this is an informational statement provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
it seems to be that there are multiple primary database, but it is not based on the information from v$database.Right now the physical standby database cannot received any archive logs from the primary.I've checked the database_role in both servers, they are as they are designated.

the standby is always busy, i.e. SESSIONS ACTIVE. i.e make sure the archived logs are shipped and apply over to physical standby.

Oracle 10gR2 on 64-bit RHEL.Backup Strategy:There will be a level-0 backup of the database every Sunday and level-1 every weekday.Archivelogs will be backed up up every 30 minutes.
Q: How can I delete ALL the archivelog backups that were taken that day (every 30 minutes) right after successful completion of level-0 or level-1 backup?
I want to delete them because they may not be of any use after the level-0 or level-1 backup (am I right)?
We have two Windows 2008 VMs with Oracle 11G configured as primary and standby.This configuration has been defined by a partner who is no longer working for us.We have broken the correct application of the redo log on the standby when we have not correctly restored some snapshots on those two VMs.I would like to create a new Oracle server that will become the new standby. For that, I need too :
- Display the full dataguard configuration to reproduce it on the new server
- Stop (delete ?) the configuration on the primary server.
We also have the current problem that RMAN refuses to delete old archivelog since they have not been applied to the standby.
