How to delete archive log on standby site
hi
i configured dataguard on 10g. could anyone suggest how to delete archived log on standby site..
Hi,
There is no automatic feature out-of-the-box but you have the following views:
1) Shows archive logs transfered:
select sequence#, first_time, next_time from v$archived_log order by sequence#;
2) Shows archive logs applied:
select sequence#, archived, applied from v$archived_log order by sequence#;
If you see your archivelogs applied you can safely remove archive log files from your disk. It is your decision if you keep or delete them completely.

How to delete archive log files from ASM through Grid Control
Hi
Anybody suggest me how to delete archive log files from ASM through Grid Control.
ThanksIt is important to specify both, the oracle version and os version when posting, so confusions can be avoided.
In this particular case, since you are referring to asm and grid control you could be talking about either 10gR1, 10gR2 or 11gR1; but I strongly suggest you to avoid us to be guessing. In either case, you sould go to the maintenance tab of the target database and program a scheduled 'delete noprompt obsolete;' procedure. This will purge the information stored at the Flash recovery area, which I assume you have declared inside the ASM.

How to delete archive log by RMAN.
Hi All,
How to delete archive log by RMAN and what is the difference between
delete all input & all delete input in RMAN backup.plus archivelog all delete inputYou get an error on the syntax.
"PLUS ARCHIVELOG" does not allow the "ALL" keyword.
(See "backupSpecOperand" in the RMAN Documentation of the BACKUP command syntax).
However, "DELETE INPUT" allows the optional "ALL" keyword as in "DELETE ALL INPUT" to delete from all archivelog destinations.
I guess that you have confused the "ALL" keyword in "BACKUP ARCHIVELOG" as being possible in "BACKUP .. PLUS ARCHIVELOG".
"ALL" is allowed in "BACKUP ARCHIVELOG" but not in "BACKUP .. PLUS ARCHIVELOG".

How to delete archive logs on the standby database....in 9i
Hello,
We are planning to setup a data guard (Maximum performance configuration ) between two Oracle 9i databases on two different servers.
The archive logs on the primary servers are deleted via a RMAN job bases on a policy , just wondering how I should delete the archive logs that are shipped to the standby.
Is putting a cron job on the standby to delete archive logs that are say 2 days old the proper approach or is there a built in data guard option that would some how allow archive logs that are no longer needed or are two days old deleted automatically.
thanks,

Check this note.
*Configure RMAN to purge archivelogs after applied on standby [ID 728053.1]*
Still it is on 9i, So you need to schedule RMAN job or Shell script file to delete archives.
Before deleting archives
1) you need to check is all the archives are applied or not
2) then you can remove all the archives completed before 'sysdate-2';
RMAN> delete archvielog all completed before 'sysdate-2';
As per your requirement. -

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.
GianlucaI 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 -
HELP....How to delete archive log from v$archived_log table...
Hi All
Our prod database was running in Archive log mode and now it is in NO Archive log mode. I deleted all archive logs from the disk but I can still see them in v$archived_log table. How do I delete them from this table.
Environment is Oracle8i(8.1.7) running on Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
Thank you
AmitHi,
Recreating the controlfile is the only way to force a cleanup of all entries in v$archived_log.
You can see information on Metalink Note:1012929.6

How do I get a backup set number?

Edited by: user589812 on Nov 17, 2008 2:52 PMDELETE OBSOLETE deletes the backups that are no longer needed to meet the recovery policy.
DELETE EXPIRED deletes backups that are found (through a CROSSCHECK) to no longer exist - usually because the files were deleted outside of rman.

How to delete Archive log files in ASM?
Hi,
Env: Sun Solaris
10.2.0.2.0 RAC with 2 node cluster
using ASM
I noticed that there are directories for ARCHIVELOG for every day.
for example:
2007_01_13/
2007_01_29/
ASMCMD> pwd
+DG01/<<INSTANCENAME>>/ARCHIVELOG
a) How to purge these files/directories automatically?
b) We use RMAN for backup. Not sure if these directories are created by RMAN
ThanksNatrajan,
Since I don't remember what exactly I did which caused stopping those folder from being created, this is what I would try.
You have mentioned that these folder are being created at
"+DG01/<<INSTANCENAME>>/ARCHIVELOG" in your first post. Is this the same location what you set at init/spfile.ora ?
"*.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=+<<DISKNAME?>/<<DBNAEM>>/'"
If yes please change one of the nodes
node1.log_arch_dest_1 to some where else which is not the current location. Then watch whether these directories being created at this location. If they are not created we have an answer what causing this folder creation.
This is just a suggestion.
Do you see the filename inside these foloder somewhat in this pattern
"o1_mf_1_9403_2pxpr9dw_.arc"
Let me know what you think? Again it is just a suggestion I really don't know the answer.
Thanks

Manual delete archived log files
Because we don't have RMAN in our development server, I need to use manual operation to delete all archived logs. Is my procedure correct and safe?

If the archives are deleted manually in open mode, how can Oracle match the archived logs' retention policy? Does Oracle store the archived logs in data dictionary?While you can delete archivelogs manually any time you want, you should let rman manage them with appropriate rman commands, preferably in a script that you schedule for regular execution.
Some of your questions lead me to question if you understand that archivelogs are not actively open by the database, and they technically are not part of the database. They are simply a series of "offline" copies of the online redo logs. They are written to once, when an online redo is being archived, then they just sit there until needed for a recovery. -

RakeshThis appears related to Bug 3298797 that was supposed to be fixed in 10.2.0.1. The workaround is to switch over to the standby, register the standby and then switch back.

Is RMAN only way to take backup and delete Archive Logs?
On primary db:
===============
OS: Windows 2003 server 32-bit
Oracle: Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1.0) R2 32-bit
On Physical standby db:
===============
OS: Windows 2003 server 32-bit
Oracle: Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1.0) R2 32-bit
Data Guard just configured. Archive Logs are properly being shipped to standby db. Is RMAN only way to take backup and delete Archive Logs from both primary and standby db? What other command can be used?
ThanksNo, but anything else is way more work. Without using RMAN you would have to find another way to keep track of applied logs.
RMAN make this very simple :
RMAN> CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO APPLIED ON ALL STANDBY;Using another method would be like using the handle of your screwdriver as a hammer.
