Do I need to enable archivelog mode on a repository database?

The sabj.
I'll greatly appreciate any suggestions on it. As of right now I cannot find any intelligible information about it. Please, share your knowledge.
Thanks a lot beforehand,
Maria.

Thanks a lot for reply!
I'll put it in archive log mode. I just wanted to make sure, that there is no difference in managing rep. database and targets/agents.
Thanks a lot!

Enable archivelog mode while datbase is open

Hi everybody
Kindly I need to ask if possible to enable archivelog mode while database in open status for oracle 11g? and if yes .. what is the statment?
Thanks in advance
Edited by: user11254543 on Jun 8, 2011 11:51 PM

You cant enable the archivelog mode when the database is in nomount state because the archive log information is kept in Control file like db in archivelog mode or not,log sequence number,SCNs,logfiles members,etc.. When we start the database in nomount state then only the pfile/spfile is read and sga is allocated and background processes are started but no controlfile is read ..to read the controlfile the database must be started in mount state..Why we require a controlfile is because it stores critical information about the database...If we start the database in mount state then it recognizes whether database is in archivelog mode or not , If it is in archivelog mode then it sees whether an instance recovery is needed or not by verifying the log sequence numbers in controlfile,redologfile & the datafile ..If an instance recovery is required then it performs the instance recovery by calling smon background process or if a datafile header is not up to date then we have to perform the media recovery using the redo logfiles...
For open state you have to post the reply..it will help you to explore yourself...Good Luck!

Enable Archivelog Mode On 2 Node RAC DATABASE

hi,
We are having 2 Node Rac 10g Database Installed on Windows.
Currently the Database is in Non Archivelog Mode.
I want to convert it to Archivelog Mode.
I come to know the steps to convert cluster database to Archivelog mode.
i.e.
set archive parameters like Disk Location and Archivelog File format.
then Convert the database in Exclusive Mode
ALTER SYSTEM SET cluster_database=FALSE SCOPE=spfile;
then
C:\> srvctl stop database -d <Global_DB_SID>
then enable Archivelog Mode.
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT;
SQL> ARCHIVE LOG START;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE SET cluster_database=TRUE SCOPE=spfile;
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
C:\> srvctl start database -d <Global_DB_SID>
But I am confuse with Do i need to RUN this commands in both the nodes seperatly or only on any one node.
Please Reply,

comments embeddedf
Node 1: OSERP1
Log on to OSERP1 Server
C:\> sqlplus sys/oracle@racdb2 as sysdba
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_format='arch_%t_%s.arc' SCOPE=spfile ; -- this needs to be database wide
SQL > ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_dest_1='location=\\OSERP1\archive$\ERP1 ' SCOPE=spfile sid ='ERP1'; -- required quotes added
-- not required
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET cluster_database=FALSE SCOPE=spfile;

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET cluster_database=FALSE SCOPE=spfile;
Then following commands will be run connecting any of the instance

SQL> ARCHIVE LOG START;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG;
-- not required (see previous steps)
SQL> ALTER DATABASE SET cluster_database=TRUE SCOPE=spfile;
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
6. Start the cluster database.
C:\> srvctl start database -d <Global_DB_SID>
-- There is no such thing as a <Global_DB_SID>. There is a database name.
Please note your tnsnames.ora, in a standard install, needs to have the following service names.
ERP
ERP1
ERP2
I'm not sure why you have the non-standard service_name racdb2.
Somehow it looks like you both don't understand the RAC concept, and didn't understand my answer. I had to correct several things I already corrected in my previous response. I'm not sure why I'm not getting through.

Unable to enable archivelog mode and flashback mode

Hi,
I have oracle10g installed on Linux machine.
Everytime i try to enable ARCHIVELOG mode and FLASHBACK through the DB EM console and during the restart of the database, the database just startup and gets mounted, but does not get open. and not able to get the database to archive log mode.
and when i startup the database through the sqlplus i get this following error:
ORA-32004: obsolete and/or deprecated parameter(s) specified
i am not able to enable successfully archive log mode and flashback mode.
in sqlplus i did the following and got the following:
SQL> archive log list;
Database log mode No Archive Mode
Automatic archival Disabled
Archive destination USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST
Oldest online log sequence 13585
Current log sequence 13587
so i was thinking maybe it is the archive log start sequence that is creating error.
because long back i had the database in archive log mode and because the archive log files got filled up, i disabled the archive mode and had to delete the archive log files.
Can someone help me bring the database in archive log mode which i am not able to successfully execute.
Thanks in advance,
Philip.

Hi,
Add archive log_archive_dest_1 D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area in pfile and then try to start the database.
Also check alert_log for more information.
Added the below info in pfile
log_archive_dest_1='location=D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area'
log_archive_start=TRUE
and then performed the process but the same error is giving.

Why we need oracle database reboot to put database in archivelog mode?

I know how to enable archivelog mode, but what is the reason that to enable archive log we need database restart. which process forces to do that.

Thanks a lot EdStevens for ur prompt response...I need something that satisfies my managers query.
If the question has originated with the PHB, then my flippant answer is even more relevant ...
PHB's are incapable of understanding the technical details, so I prefer to give them the 'executive summary':
"Because that's the way Oracle is written. We can argue over the technical merits of such a requirement 'till the cows come home. But at the end of the day, we have to shut down the database because the 'alter database archivelog' command will only succeed when the database is in mount (not open) mode. Now, let's work out how we can achieve our objective of putting the database in archivelog mode with minimal and appropriately scheduled down time."
As for the actual down time, it's about as minimal as you can get. How long does it take your database to complete a shutdown once the command is given? How long does it take you to type "startup mount"? How long does it take you to type "alter database archivelog"? to type "alter database open;"? For the database to complete the 'open' process? You could even script it so as to eliminate the keyboard typing time.

Setting Archivelog mode

In order to use RMAN y need to alter my database into archivelog mode. I found some info abuot how to do that, however, I am not sure about the procedure.
These are the commands I have to write for make the modification:
shutdown immediate;
starup mount;
alter database archivelog;
alter database open;
But it looks very simple and I don´t think I'm in the correct way. There is a parameter that confuse me because the oracle page's examples don't show anythig about it:
USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST
Can anybody helpme??

Hi,
You need to set the archive destination in the pfile/spfile before placing the database to archivelog mode.
In your database pfile/spfile:
db_recovery_file_dest_size=2G #space size can be specified according to your requirement
db_recovery_file_dest='<destination where you want to store the archives>'Once done, mount the database using the modified spfile/pfile and place the database in archive mode. Finally open the database.
If you do not want to use FRA (flash recovery area) and just want to place the database in archive mode, then in your pfile/spfile, add:
log_archive_dest='<location where you want to store the archives>'Once done, mount the database using the modified spfile/pfile and place the database in archive mode. Finally open the database.
If you feel that your questions have been answered, then please consider closing the threads by marking it as answered and providing appropriate points.

Enabling archivelog in RAC

Hello dear friends,
I want to enable archivelog mode in oracle 10.2 in RAC environment.
who can help me in its steps ?

Step how to convert noarchive log database in to archive log on ASM
First take out the one instance from cluster to perform d maintenance tasks
1)     SQL> alter system set cluster_database=true scope=spfile sid='approd1';
2)     SQL> shutdown immediate
3)     Start the single instance database which we took out from cluster pair
4)     SQL> startup mount;
5)     Check the log_archive_dest ,if its blank , which is good for us , otherwise we have to clear it values actually log_archive_dest is making archive log in local file system and log_archive_log_n , we can use it for both local , remote and ASM locations,so we will use log_archive_dest_1 instead of log_archive_dest
6)     SQL >Show parameter log_archive_dest
NAME TYPE VALUE
7)     Log_archive_dest string D:\oracle\DB10g\admin\ORCL\arc
Here in my environment the values of log_archive_dest is not NULL , so I have to reset the current values and put the null values
8)     SQL> alter system set log_archive_dest='' scope=spfile;
Any destination changes that you make take effect at the next log switch(automatic or manual) so restart the database and logon again
9)     SQL> shutdown immediate
10)     Again start the database in mount mode ( maintenance mode)
11)     Startup mount
12)
13)     Check the values of t again and make sure log_archive_dest should be blank or unset .We can’t use log_archive_dest or log_archive_dublex with db_recover file parameter , so that why I m using logarchive_log_1 parameter
14)     SQL> alter system set log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=+DATA/';
15)     SQL> alter system set cluster_database=true scope=spfile sid='approd1'
16)     Start the database
17)     Startup

Can we put RAC database in Archivelog mode without shutting down

All,
Can we put RAC database in Archivelog mode without shutting down.
Currently our new production database (2 node RAC) is in no archive log mode, Need to enable archive log in the database...
I believe we need to set the cluster_database=false and then put the DB in archive log mode then we need to bounce the database to take effect...
Just curious to know in 11gR2 ...Can we put the RAC database in archive log mode without any downtime ...?

Even RAC or non-RAC, database should bounced and enable/disable archive log mode from mount status.

Force logging in archivelog mode

Hi !!!
What happen if I have "force_logging" parameter set to true when the database is in archivelog mode ?
Thanks.

rarain wrote:
Hi Juamd,
You should only use this option when it is really required because this option will forcibly generate redo for all Nologging operations that means you might find more archives and you need to setup more space for archive.
Normally we use this option when we need to replicate data changes from one database to another database like in standby configuration, Golden Gate replication etc. I would suggest you to monitor Redo amount generated after enabling this option and accordingly estimate archive space and backup space for archive.
Thanks...Ah, don't agree with that at all. You can compromise your recovery if you happen to want to restore to a point-in-time when there was a NOLOGGING operation going on. Fine, if it's an index, but if it happens to be on a table...
(Yes, been there, done that - with a non-Production database, thankfully)
This is one of the 'must haves', IMO, for Production - set it at the database-level and it overrides any tablespace or object setting.
Archivelogs are generated for a reason. If you have a particular operation that really does massively benefit from NOLOGGING and is something you are sure that you simply re-run/re-create yourself, fine. If not, by default, you really should FORCE LOGGING.

Archivelog mode during Database upgrade

I have database that needs to be upgraded (from 8.1.7 to 10.2.0.4) and this database runs in ARCHIVELOG MODE. My question should I turn archivelog mode off during upgrade? Do you see any benefits or issues with that?

Better option to put database in no archivelog mode. Take a backup and then put database in noarchivelog mode.
Log_archive_format will be different in 10g so while enable you may need to change this parameter.

Do I need to enable archivelog mode on a repository database?
