Archive log automatically getting deleted

Hi,
My Archive logs are getting automatically deleted from ASM. I keep my Archive logs in FRA. My alert log shows deletions like this:
Deleted Oracle managed file +DATA1/orcl/archivelog/...Retention policy to recovery window is set to 24 days. The +DATA1 ASM disk has lots of free space. Archivelog deletion policy is set to None and I don't run archive deletion from rman too...
Is there any other option I need to check?

Thank you werner,
Below queries show that I already have space in FRA...

  • How to recover the database when some of the archive log file get deleted.

    I am facing a problem with Oracle database, which is related to archivelogs.
    Our development database is running in archivelog mode, but we don't have backups scheduled and have no recovery catalog.
    When the database was in running condition, disk got full, so some archivelogs were deleted manually.
    After this they restarted the DB, and now DB is not coming up. Errors are as follows:

    Hi,
    Archive log files are the copies of redolog files.As redo log files are circularly overwritten,oracle generates archive log file of the corresponding redo logfiles being overwritten.So if you have a backup that dates back to 10 am in the morning and if your database creashed at 3 pm,you cannot use the redo log files alone as they have incomplete information.To completely recover the database upto 3 pm,you need archive log files generated between 10 am to 3 pm. In your case since you are missing one archive log file,you cannot perform complete recovery and hence would suffer data loss.

  • Archive Logs Will Not Delete from OS

    Hi Everyone,
    Here's my issue. Somehow i have a few archivelogs that are corruptued, plus a backup of the database that is corrupted. Since then, I have made a new backup of the database and everything is running smoothly. WHen i try to delete the files from DISK (which i cannot delete), i get this error: CANNOT DELETE <file_name>: The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable. I try to search for the corrupted files in rman, but i get this message "specification does not match any archived log in the recovery catalog". It seems that rman doesn't recognize that the files exist.
    I go to the alert log and I have this error:
    Corrupt block seq: 10511 blocknum=1.

    I would really appreciate some help to delete these files from the OS. Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.

  • Cleanup job to remove archive logs automatically through OEM Grid control

    Hi All,
    I am working on 11gR2 3node RAC database. we have enabled archivelog mode for the databases and don't have any backup processes (like rman) and not using ASM.
    Please let me know how to cleanup the old archivelogs automatically through oem Grid control.
    I have some idea how to do it in standalone database, but not sure how it works in RAC environment through OEM. Please let me know.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for your reply and The requirement is, put the DB in archive log mode and cleanup the old archive logs which is more than 5days. We are doing this because of space issue and don't have backup for these files and the DB must be in archive log mode.
    I have few question here.
    1. Is it must to take the backup of the archive log files and before delete them?No, but if you aren't backing up, why create the archivelogs in the first place?
    2. If i delete them without backup, what is the negative impact?If you aren't backing up the database in the first place (as you stated in an earlier post) then it really doesn't matter what you do with the archivelogs as they are worthless anyway.
    3. What is the recommended process to do it?My recommendation is you first start using rman to backup the database
    4. I need to setup this process through OEM grid control.
    Please let me know.
    Thanks,
    HariIt all begs the question which has already been asked and you avoided answering . . . if you are not taking backups, why bother archiving? The archive logs have ZERO VALUE outside of a consistent backup strategy. So how is it you have a 'requirement' to run in archivelog mode but no requirement for backups?

    Hi,
    I think I had something similar once. The thing I did then was deleted the task and created a new one, and let SAP generate the container elements of the task from the method. Then I inserted and the task in the workflow and did the binding and it worked.
    So maybe an option to try.

  • Music from iPod automatically gets deleted when I plugged it in

    When the iPod is being plugged in, the songs that exist in the iPod and not on the computer are automatically deleted from the iPod. In case there're some confusion, I'll just make an example.
    Say I have two musics, "Yellow by Coldplay" and "Rockstar by Nickelback" on my iPod. And I only have "Yellow" on my computer. "Rockstar" will automatically be deleted from my iPod.
    I was wondering what could be causing this. Help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

    *When the iPod is being plugged in, the songs that exist in the iPod and not on the computer are automatically deleted from the iPod.*
    That's perfectly normal when your iPod is set to update automatically (sync). Sync is short for syncronise. When your iPod is is set to sync all music and playlists it automatically picks up any changes you made to iTunes since you last connected. Anything you added to iTunes will be added to the iPod, anything you deleted from iTunes will be deleted from the iPod. In other words the two libraries are kept "in sync".
    If you want to delete songs from iTunes and keep them on the iPod you need to change the update option of your iPod to "manually manage music and videos". Your iPod will not sync with iTunes in this mode so it can have different content, you can get details here:
    Managing content manually on iPod
    iPod 101: Fill 'er Up
    One major word of caution. If you delete songs or videos from your computer and have no back up other than the iPod you will risk losing them permanently if your iPod fails or you find you have to restore it to solve a problem. You should consider investing in an additional internal or external hard drive to store/back up your music. Alternatively at the very least back up anything you can't replace such as iTunes downloads to CD or DVD: How to back up your media in iTunes
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • Data element automatically gets deleted

    hi sapiens,
                   I am working with invoice form rvinvoice01.i have cretaed my own invoice form editing standard one. i have included all the data elements in the main window as in the standard one .but when i print the invoice in vfo2 it is showing data element mnot defined in main window.
    if i see that in se71 the data elemt gets deleted automatically .every time i am including it and saving it but it gets deletyed .what to do.?????

    Hello Manikandam,
    No your print program will not have text element by default. It s not like when you add a element to the script, it gets autogenerated in print program. You have to put it in print program. You can search for the element in the script. It will show in write_form fm  under elements. 
    And I do not have any clue how something is getting deleted from script just like that. Could you give an extract from the script what you have done after activating. Just put from 2 lines before that also.
    Regards

  • Archive logs not getting shipped when we do a swtich

    Hi Team.
    I am facing an strange issue on one of our standby.
    After the setup of the standby when we enabled the MrM mode, the archive got shipped smoothly.After after sometime when we tried to switch log file and check if it was working or not.
    From the alert log of the DR , we can only see these msg " Media Recovery Waiting for thread 1 sequence ***". But the moment we cancel the MrM mode and re enable it , its ships the same smooth.
    So need some guidance to debug the same .
    Please advise .
    Thanks

    Hello;
    On something like this I would check BOTH the Primary and Standby alert logs.
    Here's a SWITCH I forced yesterday:
    Thu Sep 12 16:01:11 2013
    ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG
    Thu Sep 12 16:01:11 2013
    Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 811 (LGWR switch)
      Current log# 1 seq# 811 mem# 0: /u01/app/oracle/oradata/PRIMARY/redo01.log
    Thu Sep 12 16:01:11 2013
    LNS: Standby redo logfile selected for thread 1 sequence 811 for destination LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2
    Notice the last line is logged on the Primary almost the very moment I do the switch. Does your Database in  Primary mode show that?
    Best Regards

  • Archive logs sequence - files deleted

    Hi,
    I am running one server (e.g. Production) on Archivelogs, and applying these to refresh standby on another server. During one of my activities, I accidentally deleted some Archivelogs that Production server generated. At this time, the database was idle, i.e. without any activity, except what I was doing.
    So, I had a archivelogs sequence as:
    ARC04482_0123456789.001
    ARC04483_0123456789.001
    ARC04484_0123456789.001
    ARC04485_0123456789.001
    And, I accidentally deleted from ARC04486 to ARC04568. Now, I have two archivelogs in standby:
    ARC04485_0670557214.001
    ARC04569_0670557214.001
    How would the sequence work and if these logs would be applied to the recovery (refresh) process as normal, or the process would always look for ARC04486 log?
    I am still newbie and wanted to clarify the above. Hope it makes sense.
    Thanks,

    >
    So, does it mean there's no way unless I (somehow) recover the missing archivelogs in sequence?
    >
    If it is possible to "recover" the missing archivelogs then yes. Do that. That is the easiest way, however, I have a feeling you don't have a copy of them laying around or you wouldn't be asking this question. :)
    You should be able to do this by taking an incremental backup of the primary starting from the current scn on the standby. Something like:
    BACKUP INCREMENTAL FROM SCN "current_standby scn" DATABASE
    Cancel managed recovery mode on the standby, recover the database with the new incremental backup (RECOVER DATABASE NOREDO), then bring the standby back up in managed recovery mode.
    Search MOS for "roll forward standby" for complete steps.

  • Archived Log files

    Hello,
    I have a understanding problem off the function of the archived log files. My Oracle 9i Database is running in ARCHIVELOG. So if the online log files are full they get backed up to 3 different locations.
    However if I view now the v$archive_log view then I see all the archived log files.
    So now my questions:
    1. At which point does these archived log files get deleted ?
    2. If they never get deleted how do I know which archived log file can I delete.
    3. If I run a full hot/cold backup can I delete this archive log files?
    4. Is there any other way to delete the archived log files then using rman "delete input" option ? Like is there any way to delete the archived log files form the sqplplus prompt ?
    I have searched and read some articles in the net about it but it is always just about how to set up the db into archivelog mode but I was not able to find anything answering my questions.
    Thank you
    Marcus

    Out of the box, archived logs are not deleted
    automatically. However, you can delete them via
    RMAN. RMAN will delete them based on the set
    retention policy. You can see which logs and
    backups RMAN considers obsolete via the "report
    obsolete" command. RMAN keeps track of logs that
    are necessary for recovery, and those that can
    be safely deleted.
    Another option, as you have noted, is to backup
    archivelogs using RMAN, with the "delete input"
    option.
    The best option (IMHO) is to automate deletion
    of obsolete archive logs via a script. This
    can be done using the "delete noprompt obsolete"
    RMAN command.
    I'm not aware of any SQLPlus based method to delete
    logs. In any case, this would NOT be a good idea, as
    RMAN would not be aware of any such deletions.
    Hope this helps.

  • Deleting the old Archive Log Files from the Hard Disk

    Hello All,
    I want to delete the old archive files of Oracle. These files are very old and consuming very huge disk space.
    Is there any way by which I can delete these files from the Hard Disk?
    Can I directly delete them using the Operating System Command?
    Will it cause any dilfference to the normal functioning of my Database?
    If I need to delete these files, do I need to bring the database down?
    Please guide me.
    I need to do this activity to make some space free on the Hard Disk.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi.
    Keep archived logs from time of last backup and forward to currenct time on disk together with the backup itself. And keep older archived logs together with older warm/cold backupfiles on tape as long as there is enough capasity or following your recovery strategy. This way you might be able to roll forward a recovery without restoring these files from tape which often the faster.
    Older archived logs can be deleted manually, with scheduled OS script or automatically with RMAN.
    Good luck

  • Best way of deleting archive logs on standby when backup taken on primary

    Hello,
    I have a 11gr2 dataguard configuration without the broker.
    main problem in my particular situation arises from my FRA size on primary much more than on standby (90Gb vs 30Gb) and in some situations I'm constrained with FRA space on standby.... I'm going to align the FRAs but in the mean time....
    can anyone confirm that if I have configuration as in subject with maximum performance mode and I'm not using the broker I should consider a sort of "external" way for archive log deletion on the physical standby?
    In fact I'm setting on primary
    - retention policy = redundancy 1
    - archivelog deletion = applied on standby (without using any "backed up...." option)
    Considering the standby it seems from docs that:
    - retention policy always wins over deletion policy (so no archive eligible for deletion is deleted if retention is not satisfied)
    - I can set on standby archivelog deletion = applied on standby (without using any "backed up...." option)
    But it is not clear to me the effect of this config in case this is a standby itself and without any other cascade standby databases
    The manual says this has to be met:
    1) The archived redo log files have been applied to the required standby databases.
    ---> what does this mean in case the db is a standby.. met or not met as I have no other cascade standby dependant on this one?
    2) The logs are not needed by the BACKED UP ... TIMES TO DEVICE TYPE deletion policy. If the BACKED UP policy is not set, then this condition is always met.
    ---> I should be ok
    So the last question for standby is
    - what to set retention policy to?
    I have not understood if I set it to "NONE", this means no retention at all or retention for ever....
    sometimes I read that there is no policy; in other examples that files will be retained forever (because no file considered as obsolete).... or at least so I understood...
    I would like to have a sort of policy on standby where the archive logs can be deleted as soon as they are applied during the continuous media recovery phase...
    It seems I can't find a self contained set of configurations across the dataguard....
    Thanks in advance.
    Gianluca

    I agree with you.... It is a temporary contingency....
    I already stressed the fact that sizes between sites must be quite identical...
    we are going towards a production dataguard, migrating from a windows config (without it) to a Linux based config....
    but this contingency made me think about these considerations regarding policies and automatic dataguard operations
    I also stressed on equal size grow capability for both sites file systems, also for data tablespaces, so that for example in case of high fragmentation we have to avoid a limit situation where
    1) a file system full for DR datafiles causes abend of automatic media recovery
    2) this generates FRA growth in DR because archive logs are shipped but not applied any more
    3) FRA goes 100% in DR and primary cannot ship any more
    4) archive logs cannot be automatically deleted on primary because not already shipped
    5) FRA full on primary and DB hangs....
    Thanks anyway for input
