ASM - arch logs

I am using asm for the arch log storage in a two node cluster. I have set parameter log_archive_format to '%t_%s_%r.arc'. But the logs are not getting generated according to the format. Why is that?
Thanks.

Do you use ASM?
log_archive_format....
LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT - If you set the LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT to an incomplete ASM filename (such as +dgroupA), Oracle will ignore it.

  • Arch log format in asm

    I am on single node asm with 10gr3. I changed the arch log format to %t_%s_%r.arc but the files are still getting created as thread_1_seq_90.459.653928775
    I have bounced the db already.
    SQL> show parameter archive_fo
    NAME TYPE VALUE
    log_archive_format string %t_%s_%r.arc
    SQL>
    What else to be setup in order to correct the format?
    Thanks.

    I believe what you are observing is Alias created by Oracle.
    Check logs available at your destination defined by "log_archive_dest_1"
    e.g In my case it is +DATA/test
    ASMCMD>cd DATA/test
    ASMCMD> ls
    1_7_653875700.dbf
    2_6_653875700.dbf
    Now I switch to directory storing alias
    ASMCMD>cd ARCHIVELOG
    ASMCMD>cd 2008_05_06
    ASMCMD>ls
    thread_1_seq_7.425.654030021
    thread_2_seq_6.363.654040811
    Is it clear?

  • Why don't we keep Oracle Database ARCH logs in RAW devices

    Hi All,
    Why don't we keep Oracle Database ARCH logs in RAW devices?
    How ARCH process is related to Block Device and Character Device ?
    Thanks,
    Tusar
    Edited by: user11987718 on 26-Jun-2012 09:59

    Why don't we keep Oracle Database ARCH logs in RAW devices? 1.This is because raw devices do not enable sequential writing of consecutive archive log files.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/rac.112/e16795/rman.htm#RACAD320
    2.with raw you have to specify the exact size of the file at creation time, in contrast with file system, where you can create file without specifying its size, start writing to it, apending new blocks to it until you are done, and thus creating a file of whatever size it needs to be to hold all information.
    http://www.dbasupport.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-16429.html
    3.raw file systems are difficult to manage because you cannot run normal os commands on them.(as there is no file systems)
    How ARCH process is related to Block Device and Character Device ?A block device would read/write bytes in fixed size blocks, as in disk sectors. Character devices read/write 0 or more bytes, in a stream, such as a TTY or a keyboard.
    For more details about what is block and character device type :
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_file
    And now think, how arch process is related to block and character devices.

    all files, that have dublicate name with .1 at the end, are always empty and as time goes by files with the same name but with .2, .3, .4 appear but also empty. It looks like arch is trying to create logs but something goes wrong and nothing is logged.
    second: i got errors from cron if i do run-cron /etc/cron.daily/ related to log files:
    sudo run-cron /etc/cron.daily/

    looks like the files r corrupted or something. please help find out the reasons and fix things up.

    I think it has to do with the group log having write permissions...

  • Suggestion for default arch logging behavior

    Okay let me throw this out there and see what comes back...
    Every Linux distribution I have used (apart from arch) has a boot log file enabled by default, or provides a simple Yes/No flag to turn the feature on.
    Arch does not.  Moreover, I have searched the forums and posted a question or two myself about the topic.  No one seems to know the answer, and a lot of responses seem to indicate that, amongst the arch community, the possibility of a boot log file is treated like: a) something that no one in their right mind would want, or b) something that maybe, might be useful, but that no one can figure out how to implement.
    What is this?  What is going on?  Arch has a bootlogd binary in /sbin/.  Presumably there is no reason why it won't actually work, but no one seems to know where to put the call to the binary, or why they would put it there.
    This seems like an easy-to-add feature that a developer or moderator (anyone who really knows the system layout well) could make the default for future installs.  It just makes a text file that is a) not large, and b) can be very useful at times.
    So how about it?  Why not make this part of the default arch logging set up?  (and of course explain what you did that worked.)

    tomk:
    Sorry to disclose my ignorance, but I'm not sure how to do that.
    What I have been doing though is trying to see in more detail how it is done on a debian system which I have access to.  Here is what I've learned so far:
    There are not that many references to bootlogd on the system, so it might be possible (for me) to track down what is going on:
    root@wave32p:/etc# locate bootlogd
    /etc/default/bootlogd
    /etc/init.d/bootlogd
    /etc/init.d/stop-bootlogd
    /etc/init.d/stop-bootlogd-single
    /sbin/bootlogd
    /usr/share/man/man8/bootlogd.8.gz
    1) "/etc/default/bootlogd" must be edited (trivially) such that a "No" becomes a "Yes"  -- this seems like just a master switch.
    2) the man files are exactly the same on the two systems, and the output of "/sbin/bootlogd -v" is the same on the two systems, however the size of the bootlogd binary itself is not the same on both systems (larger on debian64 system).  not sure what to make of that, but it is not what I was hoping to see.
    3) the script "/etc/init.d/bootlogd" runs with (eg.) a "start/stop" flag, the same as most "functions" under arch that have scripts associated with them.
    4) it would seem that I have to grind my way through the above script if I'm going to make any progress.  I'm doing that in my spare time at the moment, though it's a challenge since it's been a few years since I've written bash scripts on a regular basis.  FYI, here is the /etc/init.d/bootlogd script verbatim (additional note:  the option -r (below) is supported on the arch version of the bootlogd binary, but the -c option does not seem to be...interesting?  Here is the man page entry for -c: "Attempt  to  write to the logfile even if it does not yet exist.  Without this option, bootlogd will wait for the logfile to appear before attempting to write to it.  This behavior prevents
                  bootlogd from creating logfiles under mount points."):

  • Arch log problem

    Dear all,
    There is not much activity in the database. but archive logs are filling the disk.. How can I resolve this issue ?
    Kai

    Aren't we jumping to conclusions here without having cross-checked if it is the statistics gathering job only which is resulting in large number of archive files?
    Its definitely not recommended to disable this job. If you want to disable this, then you need to come up with your own job to gather statistics at regular intervals.
    You can change the schedule for this job to run at off-peak times though.

  • How to apply missing arching logs in a logical stand by database

    hi,
    I have created logical stand by data base for our production.It was working fine.We have not set the value for standby_archvie_dest and it send the archive files to $ORACLE_HOME/dbs, due to high volume transavtion many files generated and $ORACLE_HOME mount got filled and logical stan by apply stopped working and Db went down as well.
    I tried to apply the files once i bought back the instance but after applying one archivie file it stopped applying further.
    and logical stand by not working appropriately.
    Please let me know that is there is a mechanism to apply the missing logs?

  • Different instructions for disable arch log mode on 11Gr2 RAC server?

    Hello all,
    I've run into a problem where I've lost my tape drive...and have no sysadmins to help.
    I don't want my RAC instances to run our of space and halt, so I'm planning to take them out of archive log mode, and just do exports daily till I can move them or get tape going again.
    This is easy enough with a non-clustered instance, but I'm reading around and finding conflicting information for doing it on a RAC system.
    In the Oracle® Real Application Clusters Administration and Deployment Guide
    11g Release 2 (11.2)...it states in simple terms:
    (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/rac.112/e16795/rman.htm#i474611)
    "In order for redo log files to be archived, the Oracle RAC database must be in ARCHIVELOG mode. You can run the ALTER DATABASE SQL statement to change the archiving mode in Oracle RAC, because the database is mounted by the local instance but not open in any instances. You do not need to modify parameter settings to run this statement."
    and thats about it.
    I've been researching and found a couple of other non-oracle official guides to this, where they describe a much more involved process, that seems to follow this path:
    1. sqlplus into one instance and change the cluster_database=false scope=spfile sid='specific_node_name';
    2. Shut down all instances, srvctl stop database -d <instance_name>
    3. Startup the instance you changed cluster_database on with sqlplus and startup mount;
    4 On this instance you do ALTER DATABASE NOARCHIVELOG;
    5. On same instance change the cluster parameter back: alter system set cluster_database=true scope=spfile sid='specific_node_name';
    6. Shut down this single instance
    7. Start all instances with srvctl start database -d <instance>
    I've found references to this at:
    http://oracle-dba-yi.blogspot.com/2010/12/enabledisable-archive-log-mode-in-11gr2.html
    and
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/bk_disable_archive_log_mode.htm
    Among other sites. I'm curious why the Oracle documentation on this doesn't mention all these steps?
    I'm guessing the longer version is the path I should take, but I wanted to ask here first if this is correct?
    I'm on Oracle 11Gr2....hasn't been patched with latest patchset, running on RHEL5, and is a 5 node cluster.
    Thank you in advance,
    cayenne

    There are couple things you need to consider
    - export daily is not a backup strategy
    - you're risking your enterprise company by disabling archivelog
    your company have 5 RAC nodes I assume this is mid-to-large company, question you might ask to yourself Is your company really desperately don't have any available disk space for you to backup to temporary location / server?
    However if you still insist and persistent with your strategy then follow the links you have, that is how to disable archivelog in RAC
    CheersThank you everyone for the comments.
    This is a DEV environment...and they are planning to move this all to a new facility where we won't have the powerouttages and old defunct equipment.
    Right now...I do not have drive space to put all of this. I've informed them of the risks of not having point in time recovery. I really don't see any other choice on this....I don't want to run noarchive either...but I've been without tape to move the logs off for days now..and even with low traffic, I'm afraid they will fill and I'll have databases halting.
    I think at this point, and again, this is not production data....I'm going to have to go with daily exports and that will have to do me till I can get these servers 'moved' to a new facility soon.
    Again, thank you for the comments!!!

  • Question about ASM Online log files

    Hi All,
    Wondering if this setup is desirable?
    SQL> show parameter db_create
    NAME TYPE VALUE
    db_create_file_dest string +SYS1
    db_create_online_log_dest_1 string +SYS1
    db_create_online_log_dest_2 string +SYS2
    db_create_online_log_dest_3 string +SYS3
    db_create_online_log_dest_4 string +SYS4
    db_create_online_log_dest_5 string
    SQL>
    Looks like logs are being sent to 4 DG's....

    HI,
    DB_CREATE_ONLINE_LOG_DEST_n (where n = 1, 2, 3, ... 5) specifies the default location for Oracle-managed control files and online redo logs. If more than one DB_CREATE_ONLINE_LOG_DEST_n parameter is specified, then the control file or online redo log is multiplexed across the locations of the other DB_CREATE_ONLINE_LOG_DEST_n parameters. One member of each online redo log is created in each location, and one control file is created in each location.
    Specifying at least two parameters provides greater fault tolerance for the control files and online redo logs if one of the locations should fail.
    If a file system directory is specified as the default location, then the directory must already exist; Oracle does not create it. The directory must have appropriate permissions that allow Oracle to create files in it. Oracle generates unique names for the files, and a file thus created is an Oracle Managed File.
    Cheers

    The fact is that the database was never in archive log
    Any idea or suggestion..
    Thanks.

    1) Because applying (archived) redo log is the only recovery mechanism available, as it is the very purpose of redo log
    2) Because there is a possibility the online redologs are sufficient. Can Oracle know? Of course not.
    3) Because no one in their sane mind is running a production database in noarchivelog.
    As Tom Kyte has once put it : 'I don't believe a database which is running in noarchivelog, is a production database'
    Rest assured, in the next major release, noarchivelog will disappear.
    Apparently Oracle knows there are too many careless 'DBA's' out there, who never think about recovery, and run their database in noarchivelog.
    There is an old Latin proverb 'Vitula demersa, puteum completur' Just in case you can't Google for it, it means most preventive measures are taken after the accident happened.
    You have lost your database, I can not help it. Your only hope is you have an export somewhere.

  • Applying the arch logs after the full backup

    DB version:10GR2
    In NOCATALOG mode, I am going to take a full backup (Hot) of DBx (800gb) using the command
    run {
    allocate channel c1 TYPE DISK connect 'sys/dempo'  FORMAT   '/u04/bkp/stprod_%U.rbk';
    backup as compressed backupset database tag 'full'  plus archivelog;
    }and restore it into DBy.
    But how can i apply the archive logs generated in DBx during the full backup after the full backup?
    The restored control file doesn't know about these archived logs. Right?

    with controlfile autobackup off, the backup will be 'complete', as backing up a whole database means backing up it's system tablespace(1 st datafile to be exact, which is the part of system tablespace)The SYSTEM datafile (or multiple datafiles in SYSTEM) may be the first or the second or the nth datafile to be backed up. The BackupSet consisting of multiple backup pieces may have other tablespaces backed up after the SYSTEM datafile. Those other tablespaces and possible redo log switches have timestamps which succeed the SYSTEM datafile backup . Therefore, those other tablespaces and redo log switches are not captured in that controlfile backup that was included with the SYSTEM datafile.
    (Yes, I know we can use the controlfile backup --- but I am just pointing out that this doesn't meet the OP's requirement that the controlfile be aware of all redologs that have been switched during or after the database backup).

  • ASM Direct file access (for creating standby database in Standard Edition)

    Hi all,
    Just really looking for any opinions, experience etc. that people may have about this.
    My company are looking to set up a RAC system. They have also asked me to think about creating a standby database for disaster recovery. The first problem they give me here is that they only pay for Standard Edition of Oracle, therefore Dataguard is not an option.
    I know that one can setup "manual" standby databases with Standard Edition, automating the shipping of archive logs with hand-written scripts etc. However, as the primary here is RAC, and will be using ASM on the shared storage, I'm not sure that this would be possible (and I'm even less sure that it would be desirable!). I say this because I don't know of a way to access (using only the O/S and/or Oracle) the database files stored in ASM, and even if there was a way, I can't imagine it being a good idea..
    Anybody know of a way to tackle it, or care to contribute anything to this? As I say, my opinion is that even if it is possible to get to those files within ASM and hence manipulate them, I'd be worried that it wouldn't be such a good idea. But I'm willing to bet I'm not the first to have thought about it...
    Regards,
    Ados
    Edit 1:
    Sorry, I should state that in principal, the basic environment is:
    Windows 2003 Server
    Oracle 10g R2
    I didn't state that originally though, as I'd be keen to hear from anyone who may have attempted this on any O/S and Oracle version.
    Edited by: Ados on 16-sep-2009 9:32
    Edit 2:
    I also realise we could put the archive logs on the local nodes.. but to reinforce the point, I'm talking about having them on the shared storage where - in theory - the management is easier and more effective.
    Edited by: Ados on 16-sep-2009 9:35

    For anyone interested..
    I guess it would be done using RMAN (in fact, I'm sure of it...) in which case, I feel a lot more comfortable doing it!!
    For example:
    backup as copy archivelog ALL to destination 'c:\temp\';
    This way, it shouldn't matter if the arch logs are stored using ASM, we can now get them and "see" them.. and hence "manipulate" them (pass them on to a standby DB, for example).
    I'm just waiting to get my hands on a Standard Edition installation where I can test all this.. To try it all out (with 2-node RAC, and a standby server) I don't think I'll get a chance, so still interested in opinions, or if anyone's actually done this.
    Regards,
    Ados

  • Alert log:  failed to establish dependency between database and diskgroup

    Hi, I have a database 11.2.0 with ASM. When I startup an instance I see this error in alert log:
    ERROR: failed to establish dependency between database SPBUFOR and diskgroup resource ora.SPBUFOR_FLASH.dg
    SPBUFOR_FLASH is a diskgroup where a flash recovery area is located.
    Database is opened cleanly but I need to know that everything works fine.
    How can I resolve this issue ?

  • RMAN duplicate from RAC with ASM to RAC with ASM

    I'm still reading and trying to figure out how to duplicate...and I'm finding that there are some extra considerations you have to work with with doing a RAC system.
    Does anyone have any good links to articles/docs that spell out what to do in this scenario?
    I'm wanting to duplicate from tape backups, using NO connectivity to the source/target....
    My tape backups do include the spfile and control files (autobackup) from the source.
    Thank you in advance,
    cayenne

    Possibly you are confusing a database with a database.
    A RAC database is a just a database. What is different is the instances, the clusterware, and the storage: For example ASM.
    A backup is a backup is a backup.
    Can you be more specific about what you are trying to do, on what hardware, operating system, version, and edition.
    RMAN can not create an instance either RAC or stand-alone.Thank you for the reply.
    I have my source system, OS = RHEL5, running Oracle 11Gr2...5 node RAC cluster.
    I'm doing RMAN backups to tape...hourly arch. logs, Daily incremental lvl=1 backups and weekly incremental lvl=0
    None of the tape backups have ever been tested for restoring...and I've never restored a database myself before, total noob here.
    I have a test area I've set up. I have a 2 node RAC cluster, running 11Gr2 and OS=RHEL5.
    The tape is accessible from both systems.
    I am wanting to test the tape backups...and thought the RMAN DUPLICATE process would be the way to go.
    I am wanting to NOT connect to the source database...trying to simulate somewhat of a disaster recovery scenario. I'm only wanting to use tape backup, and the test area for the auxiliary instance.
    So far what I've seen I need to learn to do is something like:
    1. Create a password file for new aux database to be duplicated to
    2. Establish Net connectivity...
    3. Create initial parameter file for aux instance
         Due to a bug in note:334899.1, add this (because of RAC system)
         norecovery_through_resetlogs=TRUE
    4. Start aux instance NOMOUNT
    Everything I'm reading though...is basically doing this from single instance to single instance...and what little info I've seen on doing it from RAC, indicates there are some differences. The "_no_recovery_through_resetlogs=TRUE" is one thing I found...but wondering what else.
    Also, so many of the examples I'm finding...are doing the duplication connecting to the target/source...and also doing backups to disk rather than tape...
    Right now, I'm at #1...trying to figure what to put into an init pfile...I'm seeing DB_name, which will be the same as the one I'm cloning from.
    I'm not sure what else....
    I'm wondering if this is necessary..since on the tape backups from the source...I backup the SPFILE...can that not be used somehow in this?
    I'm seeing for the init file, examples show that I need to put in entries for control files and redo logs....if the source system was down and gone...how would I know where these were on the old system? This isn't documented anywhere....is there a way to do this if you didn't know.
    If not..guess I need to go through all systems and document the layouts of where everything is located.
    Also...most examples I'm finding, in addition to being single instance backup and restore/duplication...they are all using regular file systems....not much to go on with using ASM.
    Anyway, I'm trying to learn here...and am having trouble finding examples to go from that match my setup.
    Thank you in advance,
    cayenne

  • Root.sh fails on 11.2.0.3 clusterware while starting 'ora.asm' resource

    Dear all,
    I am trying to install clean Oracle 11.2.0.3 grid infrastructure on a two node cluster running on Solaris 5.10.
    - Cluster verification was successfully on both nodes; No warning or issues;
    - I am using 2 network cards for the public and 2 for the private interconnect;
    - OCR is stored on ASM
    - Firewall is disabled on both nodes
    - SCAN is being configured on the DNS (not added in /etc/hosts)
    - GNS is not used
    - hosts file is identical (except the primary hostname)
    The problem: root.sh fails on the 2nd (remote) node, because it fails to start the "ora.asm" resource. However, the root.sh has completed successfully on the 1st node.. Somehow, root.sh doesn't create +ASM2 instance on the remote (host2) node.
    root.sh was executed first on the local node (host1) and after the successful execution was started on the remote (host2) node.
    Output from host1 (working):
