HTML output for archive logs generated

Hi All,
Greetings of the day,
Have a sql scheduled in cron which gives number of archive logs generated in each hour..I have modify the shell to include HTML commands to get the ouput in HTML format...
Any ideas on how will i do this?
Thanks ,
baskar.l

Please take time to read the documentation. There is a link to "Generating HTML Reports in SQLPlus" which also has examples.

How to calculate storage space for archive log files and database backups?

Hi all,
I have a 1.8 terabyte Oracle 9i database and need to plan for how much additional disk space I will need to perform nightly backups and for archivelog files. Is there a script or formula available that can help me estimate how much required disk space I will need to hold a days worth of archived logs as well as a nightly export dump file and a full hot RMAN backup on disk?
Thanks!

I'm not sure how to estimate the size of your backups, especially if you use incrementals. However, the space required for archive logs will be equal to the amount of REDO your DB generates. I would count the number of log switches per day with a query like the following:
select trunc(first_time), count(*)
from v$log_history
group by trunc(first_time)
I would then take the average and multiply this count by the size of your redo log files (assuming they are all the same size).

Validation failed for archived log

Hi,
oracle database version 11.2.0.4
OS centOS 6.5
Recently i have set rman backup scripy on production Database, As we are using dbvisit for standby database for that we have set cron which run in every 10 minutes it generates archive and copy it to standby side,
but sometimes backup failed due to expected archive is not represent at location so i put "crosscheck archivelog all" in script now backup is running fine, But i have analyzed backlog file getting
"validation failed for archived log" the time stamp i have checked validation failed archive is current day and yesterday even though archives are present at the location and CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 14 DAYS;
Guys i am worried it shouldn't be a big issue for me,
please suggest what is wrong

"recover database until cancel" asks for archive log file that do not exist

Hello,
Oracle Release : Oracle 10.2.0.2.0
Last week we performed, a restore and then an Oracle recovery using the recover database until cancel command. (we didn't use backup control files) .It worked fine and we able to restart the SAP instances. However, I still have questions about Oracle behaviour using this command.
First we restored, an online backup.
We tried to restart the database, but got ORA-01113,ORA-01110 errors :
sr3usr.data1 needed media recovery.
Then we performed the recovery :
According Oracel documentation, "recover database until cancel recovery" proceeds by prompting you with the suggested filenames of archived redo log files.
The probleme is it prompts for archive log file that do not exist.
As you can see below, it asked for SMAarch1_10420_610186861.dbf that has never been created. Therefore, I cancelled manually the recovery, and restarted the database. We never got the message "media recovery complete"

When restaring the database we could see that, a recovery of online redo log has been performed automatically, is it the normal behaviour of a recovery using "recover database until cancel" command ?

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi,
Let me answer your query.
=======================
Your question: While performing the recovery, is it possible to locate which online redolog is needed, and then to apply the changes in these logs
1.   When you have current controlfile and need complete data (no data loss),
      then do not go for until cancel recovery.
2.   Oracle will apply all the redologs (including current redolog) while recovery
     process is    on.
3. During the recovery you need to have all the redologs which are listed in the    view    V$RECOVERY_LOG and all the unarchived and current redolog. By querying V$RECOVERY_LOG you    can find out about the redologs required.
4. If the required sequence is not there in the archive destination, and if recovery process    asks for that sequence you can query V$LOG to see whether requested sequence is part of the    online redologs. If yes you can mention the path of the online redolog to complete the recovery.
Hope this information helps.

Madhukar

How can I set destination for archived logs?

I would like to know:
how to set destination for archived logs?
how to identify the init.ora that is used for my database?
With rman using compressed backupset by default and and making
backup database;
What does it backup exactly?

Another thing I am wondering, when I make a backup with rman : backup database.
It saves the backups in the directory autobackup from the flash_recovery_area but it seems that it only saves the data files and the control files.Isn't there a way to sava archived logs files, control files, datafiles in a single backup?
In fact I would like to make a full backup using rman on sunday of everything and a incremental backup all days of the week how can I acomplish this with a retention of 7 days?

Secondary destination for Archived logs

Version: 10.2, 11.1, 11.2
We occasionally get 'archiver error' on our production DBs due to our LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1 being full. How can I have a secondary location for archive logs in case my 'primary' location (LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1) becomes full ?
I gather that LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2 is reserved for shipping archive logs to Dataguard standby DB in which you specify the tns entry of standby using SERVICE parameter.
Can I specify LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_3 as my secondary location in case LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1 becomes full ? Is it what LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n meant for ? Although the documentation says you can have upto 10 locations, I am confused if they are meant to store Multiplexed copies of archive logs ? That is not what I am looking for ?

>
Hi again Tom,
I have one more question:
ALTER SYSTEM SET LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_4 = 'LOCATION=/disk4/arch';
ALTER SYSTEM SET LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_3 = 'LOCATION=/disk3/arch
    ALTERNATE=LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_4';
ALTER SYSTEM SET LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_4=ALTERNATE;
SQL> SELECT dest_name, status, destination FROM v$archive_dest;
DEST_NAME               STATUS    DESTINATION
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1      VALID     /disk1/arch     -------------> Dest1
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2      VALID     +RECOVERY       -------------> Dest2
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_3      VALID     /disk3/arch     -------------> Dest3
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_4      ALTERNATE /disk4/archMy understanding is (and I'm not terribly sure at the minute - don't have a test system to hand. I haven't
set up a backup/recovery strategy in a while - I just restore backups from time to time (normally every 4 weeks)
to ensure that the database recovers as it should) - my understanding is that under the scheme above
DEST_3 will be a copy of what's in DEST_1. DEST_4 on the other hand will "step in" should DEST_1
or DEST_3 fill up/fail.
As to DEST_2, I'm not sure - maybe something to do with Fast Recovery Area? I've Googled but can't
find anything - the trouble is that all the pages about this contain the word "recovery" and the "+"
sign doesn't appear to affect the search - does "+" mean something special to Google?
I don't have a system at the moment - if you do, why don't you test and see? On a test system, fill
up the file system for DEST_1 with rubbish and check to see what happens?
All of the above is to be taken with a pinch of salt - I don't have a system to hand and am not certain,
so CAVEAT EMPTOR
HTH,
Paul...

What is the meaning of stream capture waiting for archive log ?

today I fing the oracle alert that stream capture waiting for archive log in other class,and use a lot of database time.
What is it? And Can I prevent it happening ?

Overheads for Archive Logs

Hi,
Not sure where I should address this but I would appreciate any helpful feedback.
I would like to find out what are the overheads (in terms of size) for managing & storing archive logs for capacity planning purposes. Is this information documented anywhere? How can I find out?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Tony

Since this number is dependent on your database, it would be impossible to answer. If you have a small database with few changes/deletes, you hardly need any space for archive logs. Oracle reccommends that you size your archive logs so that they switch ~1 time per hour.

Regenerating output for archived billing document

Hi,
As TCODE=VF31 can not generate output from archived billing documents, I would kindly ask you if is there any other alternative standard SAP way to do it ?
Thanking in advance for your help, best regards
Joseph Sangoi

You cannot print from archived documents as archived documents have to remain unchanged. Printing will create new NAST records for your document which is not possible for archived data.
You have to care about such requests prior to data archiving. You need a general strategy e.g. printing into an archive (setting in your message conditions), which is optical archiving and often mixed with data archiving . Those optically archived invoices can be reprinted at any time.

Reduce amount of archived log generated.

RDBMS version : 9.2.0.8
SQL> SELECT tablespace_name, force_logging FROM dba_tablespaces;
TABLESPACE_NAME FORCE_LOGGING
SYSTEM NO
Above is what status of database, but when I do maintenance work of rebuilding index tablespace I get day or two worth of archived log files.
and I dont' think ALTER DATABASE no force logging will reduce the amount of log generated.
Is there any other method available?
thanks

Hi,
if you force logging for a tablespace or for the database, then this means only that any nologging clause that comes with statements related to segments in that tablespace/database is ignored. No force logging is the default.
In order to reduce the amount of redo protocol, you may consider to use NOLOGGING for the rebuild of your indexes:
create index <indexname> on <table(column)> nologging;Or you put the tablespace in NOLOGGING in which the indexes are created in:
alter tablespace <indextablespace> nologging;Or (perhaps even better) simply leave the indexes as they are. Most indexes do not need a rebuild anyway.
Kind regards

Shell script for archive log transfer

hi
I dont want to reinvent the wheel.
I am looking for shell script for log shipping to provide standby db.
What I want to do is, get the last applied archived log number from alert.log
Copy the files from archive destination according to this value.
Cheers

If you don't want to re-invent the wheel you use Dataguard, no scripts.
And your script should use the dictionary, instead of some bs method to read the alert.
v$archived_log has all information!
Also as far as I know, the documentation describes manual standby.
So apparently you not only don't want to reinvent the wheel, but you want the script on a silver plate on your doorstep!
Typical attitude of most DBAs here. Use OTN for a permanent vacation.

Oracle recommended location for archive logs in oracle 10g rac

Hello All,
We would like to know the oracle recommended location for the archive logs in oracle10g RAC .we are using ASM.
Thanks...

user4487322 wrote:
thanks. Is it the recommended setting ,if we go for a DR setup?I mean archive logs in ASM.If you can use dataguard, the archivelog copy to the standby system would be handled by Oracle and it supports ASM.
Just remember, what ever your strategy, the archivelogs must be in a SHARED location (where all nodes can read/write to this location.)

Specifying separate location for Archived logs in Persistent settings

DB version:11gR1
I am new to RMAN
Currently my RMAN bkp script looks like
run {
recover copy of database with tag "INCR_BKP";
     backup check logical incremental level 1 format '/data_DISK1/bkp_dir/nhprod31/data/INCR_%d_%u'
          for recover of copy with tag "INCR_BKP" database;
     backup (archivelog all format='/data_DISK2/bkp_dir/nhprod31/arch_logs/ARCH_%d_%T_%u_s%s_p%p' DELETE ALL INPUT TAG "arch_logs");
     backup format '/data_DISK1/bkp_dir/nhprod31/ctrl_file/RMAN_CTL_%s:%t:%p.bkp' current controlfile;
}I want Datafiles and Archived logs to be stored in different locations like above.
But i want to remove those lengthy path locations in the script and just use
backup database plus archivelog;For this, i need to set
configure channel device type disk format ='/u01/backup/ora_%U.bak';Question1.
Is it possible to specify a separate archive log location using CONFIGURE command?
Question2.
If it is not possible, all the backup files will have the same naming convention
ora_%U.bakhow will you identify the type of backup file. Say, i need the archive log files to be named with Log sequence number in it (like ARCH_%d_%T_%u_s%s_p%p). Shouldn't Oracle be including a provision for this?
I am not even sure that each archive log file will backed up as a single backup file. Oracle may consolidate all the archive logs in to one backup piece. Please forgive my ignorance.
