Redo log file contents
How can I check the contents of the redo log files?
I recently install 10g. We haven't used the db yet, but the redo logs are very active.
Is there a query to determine what activity is filling the redo log files?
Thank you for any help.
Take Care.
S
The Automatic Workload Repository takes snapshots of
statistics, via scheduled job, at hourly intervals.
This is probably responsible for some of the redo.
You can see if this feature is turned on by checking
the job queue (simply: select * from dba_jobs).
The default settings on AWR can be managed using the
DBMS_WORKLOAD_REPOSITORY built-in package.
Hope this helps.

Need to understand when redo log files content is wrote to datafiles
Hi all
I have a question about the time when redo log files are wrote to the datafiles
supposing that the database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode, and all redo log files are filled, the official oracle database documentation says that: *a filled redo log file is available
after the changes recorded in it have been written to the datafiles* witch mean that we just need to have all the redo log files filled to "*commit*" changes to the database
Thanks for help

The wording is poor and should be modified to something like:
<blockquote>
+"a filled online redo log file is available for re-use after all the data blocks that have been changed by change vectors recorded in the log file have been written to the data files"+
</blockquote>
Remember if a data block that is NOT an undo block has been changed by a transaction, then an UNDO block has been changed at the same time, and both change vectors will be in the redo log file. The redo log file cannot, therefore, be re-used until the data block and the associated UNDO block have been written to disc. The change to the data block can thus be rolled back (uncommitted changes can be written to data files) because the UNDO is also available on disc if needed.
If you find the manuals too fragmented to follow you may find that my book, Oracle Core, offers a narrative description that is easier to comprehend.

Redo log files in case of NOARCHIVELOG Mode.
Question is related with the oracle architure..
database requires a minimum of two redo log files to guarantee that one is always available for writing while the other is being archived, this sounds perfect when DB is running in ARCHIVELOG mode but at the same time it also forces database to have 2 redo log files even when the DB is running in NOARCHIVELOG mode?
Any particular reason..
I would look for reasons not answers on what redo log is and what information it holds etc..pgoel wrote:
If you had only one file all further changes would have to stop until all changed data blocks had been written to disc. By insisting on a minimum of two log files Oracle can allow the log writer to fill the second log file as the database writer writes out the dirty blocks covered by changes desrcibed in the first log file.What about having a big size redo log file instead of two? Checkppoint being initiated when the redo log file is half filled
I mean, understand the logic, two is better, even best.. but still not getting convinced. I am just trying to think, can not Oracle work with 1 group with 1 big file..specailly when Noarch mode ? Having
Edited by: pgoel on Mar 12, 2011 7:27 PMNo, you still didn't understand and I am not sure how else we can say it. Okay, think about log groups as two buckets which are used to fill the redo content. The LGWR is filling one bucket at a time till it can't accept any more content. Once filled, rather than spilling the content out, it jumps over to the second bucket. Now, taking your statement of big sized redo, Pgoel, it doesn't matter how big sized bucket you bring in, eventually it will fill in. Its not possible that you wont be able to fill it , it just would take more longer than the normal timings. Thats all. So in any case , you need the second bucket. And I am not sure that why you are struck on the archivelog mode. I hope you do understand that its an optional mode. This means, this may or may not be there. If there, its a good thing that before doing the flush of the redo content, Oracle would be able to save the contents in the archived (think about the name, it's very meaning is to preserve, to archive) log file. If not, the redo content wuold be lost and there won't be any record of transactions leaving you to reenter the lost transactions. Its a meaningless point on which you are struck i.e. the archive or no-archivelog mode. Be it whatever, Oracle would still need minimum of the two log groups.

Bottleneck when switching the redo log files.
Hello All,
I am using Oracle 11.2.0.3.
The application team reported that they are facing slowness at certain time.
I monitored the database and I found that at some switching of the redo log files (not always) I am facing a slowness at the application level.
I have 2 threads since my database is RAC, each thread have 3 redo log groups multiplexed to the FRA, with size 300 MB each.
Is there any way to optimize the switch of redo log files? knowing that my database is running in ARCHIVELOG mode.
Regards,Hello Nikolay,

Filled redo log files are available to LGWR for reuse
Hi,
Oracle version:
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.4.0 -
OS:Windows XP
In oracle documentation it is mentioned that:
Filled redo log files are available to LGWR for reuse depending on whether archiving is enabled.
*> If archiving is disabled (the database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode), a filled redo log file is available after the changes recorded in it have been written to the datafiles*.
Link for Documentation is:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28310/onlineredo001.htm
My doubt is:
Redo Records are written to datafiles also??user12141893 wrote:
Does it mean:
Suppose:
Online redo log files contains some redo entries and database buffer cache contains some data and this data belong to redo entries of redo log files.
Now this redo log file can't be reused until those (related) blocks of database buffer cache are written into datafiles.
This is sort of correct. If the log file would be filled up , LGWR would switch over to the next log group and would initiate a Log Switch which would further trigger DBWR to start checkpointing the content protected by this log group to the data file. By the time this operation would be going on, the Log group's members would have the status of Active and once it would be complete, the status would be marked to Inactive which means that this log group and its members can be reused by LGWR.

For the above mentioned alerts I followed the recommendations of SAP Note 491160. I dropped and recreated the mirrorlog files. But the next day again when I checked the backup it finished with warnings. At the database level there is no problem

As you can see from the above output at the database level everything is fine. So why during backup it is giving me warnings in DB12. Any help with this regard will be appreciated.

Missing current redo log files
hello to all
i have a question please if you can guide me.
if i lose all current redo log files (current redo log group files) how i can repair it and open
database ? (i don't have problem by missing INACTIVE redo group)
thanksHi,
>>if i lose all current redo log files (current redo log group files) how i can repair it and
open database ? (i don't have problem by missing INACTIVE redo group)Well, It depends. The database was active when the current log file was lost ? Are you using RMAN ? The database is operating in ARCHIVELOG mode or NOARCHIVEMOG mode ? Basically, an incomplete recovery is necessary when there is a loss of the current redo log files. It means that you don’t have all the redo log files up to the point of failure, so the only alternative is[b] to recover prior to the point of failure. To perform incomplete recovery after the redo log files have been lost, you do the following (if you are not using RMAN):
1) Execute a SHUTDOWN command and restore all data files (*.dbf) from most recent backup.
2) Execute a STARTUP MOUNT command to read the contents of the control file.
3) Execute a RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL CANCEL command to start the recovery process.
SQL> startup mount;
4) Execute a RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL CANCEL command to start the recovery process.
SQL> recover database until cancel;
5) Apply the necessary archived logs up to, but not including, the lost or corrupted log.
6) Open the database and reset the log files.
SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
7) Shut down the database.
SQL> shutdown normal;
8) Take a full cold backup
In resume, for more information, take a look at [url http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/recoscen008.htm#sthref1872]Recovering After the Loss of Online Redo Log Files: Scenarios

How to disable write to redo log file in oracle7.3.4
in oracle 8, alter table no logged in redo log file like: alter table tablename nologging;
how to do this in oracle 7.3.4?
thanks.user652965 wrote:
Thanks very much for your help guys. I appreciate it. unfortunately none of these commands worked for me. I kept getting error on clearing logs that redo log is needed to perform recovery so it can't be cleared. So I ended up restoring from earlier snapshot of my db volume. Database is now open.
Thanks again for your input.And now, as a follow-up, at a minimum you should make sure that all redo log groups have at least 3 members. Then, if you lose a single redo log file, all you have to do is shutdown the db and copy one of the good members (of the same group as the lost member) over the lost member.
And as an additional follow-up, if you value your data you will run in archivelog mode and take regular backups of the database and archivelogs. If you fail to do this you are saying that your data is not worth saving. -

DROP and recreate the database. It is a *new* database without any data.
Check what datafile locations and redo log file locations you specify when creating the new database. Check if you have permissions and enough disk space.

Hi Experts,
I want to remove a wrong redo log file from 10G R2 database in window.
how to do that without loss data?
my steps as
1. alter system switch logfile;
2. select * from v$log;
which ARC and sataus do I can drop redo log file based on above SQL
no archive and active status?
ALso Which account should I do above action?
fExamp, system account added redo log file, i only
can drop by system? how about sys?
Thanks help in detail steps
Jim
Edited by: user589812 on Dec 23, 2008 4:35 PMJim,
Check this link out for how to drop a redo log file
Make sure a redo log group is archived (if archiving is enabled) before dropping it. To see whether this has happened, use the V$LOG view.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/onlineredo.htm#i1006489
SELECT GROUP#, ARCHIVED, STATUS FROM V$LOG;
GROUP# ARC STATUS
1 YES ACTIVE
2 NO CURRENT
3 YES INACTIVE
4 YES INACTIVE
Drop a redo log group with the SQL statement ALTER DATABASE with the DROP LOGFILE clause.
The following statement drops redo log group number 3:
ALTER DATABASE DROP LOGFILE GROUP 3; -

Restore in noarchivelog mode ( redo log files have been dropped )
1, A full backup taken using RMAN is available on disk.
2, The current control files were NOT damaged and do not need to be restored.
3, All data files are damaged .
4, The database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode.
I restore database :
1. RMAN> STARTUP MOUNT
2. RMAN> RESTORE DATABASE;
3. RMAN> recover database;
in this step , I got the information about needing redo log files ; but the redo log
files have been dropped , what should i do ?
else
I want to know there is the command 'recover database using backup control file'
in rman or not ?
TksPossibly loss of data (because information in online redo logs is lost):
recover database until cancel;
(cancel immediately)
alter database open resetlogs; (to build a new set of redo logs)
It's not necessary to use a backup controlfile here. -
How to recover from one corrupted redo log file in NOARCHIVE mode?
Oracle 10.2.1.
The redo log file was corrupted and Oracle can't work.
When I use STARTUP mount, I got no error msg.

But I have some applications which are depended on Oracle can't be started.
So, I tried STARTUP open. But I got error msg.

If use RMAN, how to do that?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.Hi, Yingkuan,
Thanks for the helps.
Actually, I have 10 redo log files exists. All of them are here.
I tried your suggestion:
alter database clear unarchived logfile group 4;
The error msg I got is the same as before:
SQL> alter database clear unarchived logfile group 4;
alter database clear unarchived logfile group 4
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01624: log 4 needed for crash recovery of instance nmdata (thread 1)
ORA-00312: online log 4 thread 1:
'G:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\NMDATA\REDO04.LOG'
Compared to losing all the data, it is OK for me lose some of them.
I have more than 1 TB data stored and 99.9% of them are raster images.
The loading of these data were the headache. If I can save them, I can bear the lost.
I want to grasp the last straw.
But I don't know how set the parameter: allowresetlogs_corruption
I got the error msg:
SQL> set allowresetlogs_corruption=true;
SP2-0735: unknown SET option beginning "_allow_res..."
I have run the command:
Recover database until cancel
Alter database open resetlogs
The error msg I got is the following:
