What if all the redo logs of a database are lost

I want to know how a database can be recovered if all the three redo logs are lost at the same time.
Thanks,
Prabhath.

You will be able to find the detail procedures of this kind of recover here:

if you are making backups to the database using RMAN the recover is easier.

Redo logs and Flash recovery area

Hi,
Is it a good practice to place a copy of the (multiplexed) online redo at the flash recovery area? Wouldn't it be better to place a copy of the archived log at the flash recovery area?

FRA is supposed to contain one copy of the archive logs and the rest 9 destinations are given to you for the multiplexing of it. The idea of multiplexing the redo logs and placing them anywhere( not just on the FRA itself) is simply required so that you won't get to a situation where you would lose all the redo log files and thus have to recreate them, losing the data inside them. So aleast one copy of the log files should be there and where you want to put it, that would depend on you.

Where all the redo/archive log volume come from?

Hi,
I have a database with a size of around 50G. Thats not very much, but the crazy thing is that this database has a redo log volume per day that is nearly equal the size of the database:

Is there a way to investigate further where all the redo information comes from?
Every 2 hours redo is backed up to tape.
There are no significant batches, shaking and shuffling the data around all the time.
Nearly all changes in this database is happening through user inputs.
Database is 11gR2 on Redhat 5.6.

I am afraid there is no easy and direct way to pull the answer from the data dictionary.
But with some work, you can get to the bottom of this.
This query shows you how much redo is used by the sessions in your system currently:
select a.sid , a.value from v$sesstat a, v$statname b
where a.statistic# = b.statistic#
and b.name = 'redo size'Unfortunately, I am not aware of a AWR view (license required!) that corresponds to v$sesstat, so it would not be easy to look back and see which session generated the redo.
One way is to troubleshoot the problem online, using a utility such as snapper- http://blog.tanelpoder.com/2010/03/22/oracle-session-snapper-v3-10/ . See which sessions generate most redo and see what SQL they are running at that time.
The other way is to create your own “repository”. Sample V$SESSION, v$sesstat , v$statname and possibly V$SQL frequently (every few seconds) and record how much redo and what SQLs are running by each session. Once you gather enough data, look which sessions had the biggest “redo size” delta and what SQL were they running at that time.

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,
Thanks for your input I am sharing with you the below information. I have 2 instances so I will provide the info from each instance

Friends,
need 1 answer about the query: what will heppen if redo logs at os level get deleted.

how can i find where are my multiplexed redo logs, so that i can copy it from there

Just goes to show you (if this is, in fact what you did), don't just go blindly deleting files that have a ".LOG" extension.

How to change the redo log file location.... ?

I want all my redo log files to be created in \u10 instead of current /u01?
How to do it? NOARCHIVELOG mode database on Oracle 10g R2.
Thank you,
Smirh

Hi..
I want all my redo log files to be created in \u10 instead of current /u01?I think it should be /u10 :)...

how can i find out what all the charges on my checking account are for?

If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases - the most recent purchase is above the list. I'm not sure if that shows auto-renewing subscriptions (I don't have any so I can't check).
If you can't find the charges and you haven't added or changed your card details on your account (when you do then a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the details are correct and valid, which should disappear within a few days) then you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

GoldenGate : Why to read all the Redo or Archive, can't we skip ??

Hi All,
I have a big doubt if anyone can give clarity. The scenario is :- In my environment data is flowing from Oracle to Oracle but Huge transactions in Millions and we use this tool basically to improve LAG when we get data for reporting.
Now let's say I have database user A which is doing some temporary transaction on source for couple of hours but it is HUGE and generating lot of archives AND we don't want to flow any data from the transaction being performed by user A - so we use EXCLUDEUSER A parameter.
Now during same time if any other user say B is performing some operation in one table - we want it to flow, So it is flowing normally BUT the main problem is LAG increased like anything cause GoldenGate is now reading all the redo or archives which of no use and data is flowing very slowly :( :(
My point was will it be also possible that I don't want my GoldenGate to read any redo log or archives if the user A is performing operation and read only those archives if user B or any other user is performing some operation. This will improve the LAG cause even though we ignore the particular user, It is still going to read all the redo or huge archives generated by user A or user B or whatever in sequence, Please correct me if I am wrong ?
I suppose goldengate is going to read all the transaction regardless of A or B user. Only it will ignore the A and process transaction of B.
I know it reads in sequence but can't it read specific archives which is useful instead of reading all.

Hi Steven,
Thanks for your reply.
I agree with you that "normal" mode of GoldenGate is to capture changes and replicate them and Ofcourse I want it to capture any changes but I don't want it to pass through reading all the archives if I am ignoring one user who is performing HUGE temporary transaction and generating huge archives.
It is going to slow down all the other small transaction changes cause it is passing through all those archives also which is of NO use. Do you mean that "Integrated mode" of new Goldengate version will work in that case ?
Please help, I really need this information. It will help everyone.

What will happen when redo log file or archive log file, which is yet to be

What will happen when redo log file or archive log file, which is yet to be read by logminer is corrupted? It seems that the captures process hangs between “Paused for flow control” and “Enqueuing Messages”. How to come out of this condition without recreating the captures process?
Any clue is helpful
Thanks in advance for your help.

Basically you can't skip SCN since it will result in a data integrity issues (say you had skipped some inserts and later there will be some updates to a not replicated data).
Streams maintain their own checkpoint tables with transaction related stuff. So there is no way you can jump over a range of SCN's without recreating capture.
The only thing you can try - temporary give capture process a rule without any objects. But it will need to mine through the redo anyway.

Sizing the redo log files using optimal_logfile_size view.

Regards
I have a specific question regarding logfile size. I have deployed a test database and i was exploring certain aspects with regards to selecting optimal size of redo logs for performance tuning using optimal_logfile_size view from v$instance_recovery. My main goal is to reduce the redo bytes required for instance recovery. Currently i have not been able to optimize the redo log file size. Here are the steps i followed:-
In order to use the advisory from v$instance_recovery i had to set fast_start_mttr_target parameter which is by default not set so i did these steps:-
1)SQL> sho parameter fast_start_mttr_target;
NAME TYPE VALUE
fast_start_mttr_target integer 0
2) Setting the fast_start_mttr_target requires nullifying following deferred parameters :-
SQL> show parameter log_checkpoint;
NAME TYPE VALUE
log_checkpoint_interval integer 0
log_checkpoint_timeout integer 1800
log_checkpoints_to_alert boolean FALSE
SQL> select ISSES_MODIFIABLE,ISSYS_MODIFIABLE,ISINSTANCE_MODIFIABLE,ISMODIFIED from v$parameter where name like'log_checkpoint_timeout';
ISSES_MODIFIABL ISSYS_MODIFIABLE ISINSTANCE_MODI ISMODIFIED
FALSE IMMEDIATE TRUE FALSE
SQL> alter system set log_checkpoint_timeout=0 scope=both;
System altered.
SQL> show parameter log_checkpoint_timeout;
NAME TYPE VALUE
log_checkpoint_timeout integer 0
3) Now setting fast_start_mttr_target
SQL> select ISSES_MODIFIABLE,ISSYS_MODIFIABLE,ISINSTANCE_MODIFIABLE,ISMODIFIED from v$parameter where name like'fast_start_mttr_target';
ISSES_MODIFIABL ISSYS_MODIFIABLE ISINSTANCE_MODI ISMODIFIED
FALSE IMMEDIATE TRUE FALSE
Setting the fast_mttr_target to 1200 = 20 minutes of checkpoint switching according to Oracle recommendation
Querying the v$instance_recovery view
4) SQL> select ACTUAL_REDO_BLKS,TARGET_REDO_BLKS,TARGET_MTTR,ESTIMATED_MTTR, OPTIMAL_LOGFILE_SIZE,CKPT_BLOCK_WRITES from v$instance_recovery;
ACTUAL_REDO_BLKS TARGET_REDO_BLKS TARGET_MTTR ESTIMATED_MTTR OPTIMAL_LOGFILE_SIZE CKPT_BLOCK_WRITES
276 165888 *93* 59 361 16040
Here Target Mttr was 93 so i set the fast_mttr_target to 120
SQL> alter system set fast_start_mttr_target=120 scope=both;
System altered.
Now the logfile size suggested by v$instance_recovery is 290 Mb
SQL> select ACTUAL_REDO_BLKS,TARGET_REDO_BLKS,TARGET_MTTR,ESTIMATED_MTTR, OPTIMAL_LOGFILE_SIZE,CKPT_BLOCK_WRITES from v$instance_recovery;
ACTUAL_REDO_BLKS TARGET_REDO_BLKS TARGET_MTTR ESTIMATED_MTTR OPTIMAL_LOGFILE_SIZE CKPT_BLOCK_WRITES
59 165888 93 59 290 16080
After altering the logfile size to 290 as show below by v$log view :-
SQL> select GROUP#,THREAD#,SEQUENCE#,BYTES from v$log;
GROUP# THREAD# SEQUENCE# BYTES
1 1 24 304087040
2 1 0 304087040
3 1 0 304087040
4 1 0 304087040
5 ) After altering the size i have observed the anomaly as redo log blocks to be applied for recovery has increased from *59 to 696* also now v$instance_recovery view is now suggesting the logfile size of *276 mb*. Have i misunderstood something
SQL> select ACTUAL_REDO_BLKS,TARGET_REDO_BLKS,TARGET_MTTR,ESTIMATED_MTTR, OPTIMAL_LOGFILE_SIZE,CKPT_BLOCK_WRITES from v$instance_recovery;
ACTUAL_REDO_BLKS TARGET_REDO_BLKS TARGET_MTTR ESTIMATED_MTTR OPTIMAL_LOGFILE_SIZE CKPT_BLOCK_WRITES
*696* 646947 120 59 *276* 18474
Please clarify the above output i am unable to optimize the logfile size and have not been able to achieve the goal of reducing the redo log blocks to be applied for recovery, any help is appreciated in this regard.

Sir oracle says that fast_start_mttr target can be set to 3600 = 1hour. As suggested by following oracle document
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B10500_01/server.920/a96533/instreco.htm
I set mine value to 1200 = 20 minutes. Later i adjusted it to 120=2 minutes as Target_mttr suggested it to be around 100 (if fast_mttr_target value is too high or too low effective value is contained in target_mttr of v$instance_recovery)Just to add, you are reading the documentation of 9.2 and a lot has changed since then. For example, in 9.2 the parameter FSMTTR was introduced and explicitly required to be set and monitored by the DBA for teh additional checkpoint writes which might get caused by it. Since 10g onwards this parameter has been made automatically maintained by Oracle. Also it's been long that 9i has been desupported followed by 10g so it's better that you start reading the latest documentation of 11g and if not that, at least of 10.2.

What is in the PostgreSQL_Server_Services.log File and How do I Shrink it?

I know OS X Server uses PostgreSQL now instead of MySQL which is fine by me. I am trying to figure out what is in the PostgreSQL_Server_Services.log file in Library/Logs/PostgreSQL/ . It is about 188 GB right now and ideally instead of relocating it along with other services to another drive from the nice 256GB SSD that is in the system I would like to understand what is in the database and how to manage it's size better.
Any pointers for best practice on managing the database or what the heck is in it?
Thanks!

Thanks for the response. I mistyped in the question as I understood it was a log file. The DB itself is only about 1-2GB. As for reviewing I am fine with modifying the permissions and examining the file in the console or other app but I am most interested in how to manage it safely. Can I just clear the log contents? If so what is the safe way to do so? I know with many DB's the log file is critical to it's function and if things happen to the log file it can render the DB unusable. In addition what is the best way to modify the rotation routine it uses and set the logging level? (I have pasted the .plist contents for Postgresql for Server Services below)
I have also downloaded and installed pgAdmin but have not gone through the steps of connecting it to the DB and log file (users setup etc.)

What's all the fuss about iOS6 maps???

For starters, I'm not an iFan... My first smartphone was a BB and I used to swear by it. I found (and sometimes still do) that the iPhone was more of a toy while the BB was a professional tool. I still prefer the BB Bold's keyboard for typing emails than the iPhone's touchscreen keyboard. I ended up buying a 4S earlier this year (March) only because BB had no Outlook Exchange license available where I lived (Maldives) and it was either Android or iPhone, so the choice was clear there. Since then, I've come to grow quite fond of it and am quite happy with the integrations and functionality of the phone albeit it being slightly more time-consuming to send out emails.
The iPhone 5 launch event came out and I looked at all the details. Here's my conclusion: an extra row or icons, a slightly faster processor and most of all 4G. Now, I don't really need an extra row of icons... In fact, I sometimes find the 4S a little too long (jeans pockets along with a pack of cigarettes: cigarette pack usually loses and looks like it's been trampled by a herd of elephants...). So, I'm not in for a bigger screen as the current one's just fine. I never found my 4S to lack speed so I don't really care about the faster processor either. 4G? I love it! But I live in China now... It will be a while before it'll come out here, so why bother for the moment? It's complicated enough as it is as China Mobile (biggest network and best coverage, which I am also currently on) doesn't even have 3G for the iPhone. Only EDGE, but I make do... China Unicom offer 3G for iPhones but not as good a coverage... So, what to do? So in the end, a 4S with the brand new iOS6 update to me sounds better than going out to buy a new iPhone 5.
Update has been out for 3 days now. And before I went ahead and updated I checked the reviews, comments and discussions... WOW! It would seem Apple has opened the wraths of **** upon the world and that the Apocalypse is upon us when reading on about all the bugs and issues. And everyone goes on and on about the maps... It's made it onto CNN, BBC and just about anyone with an iota of grey matter and a keyboard. There are even comments mentioning that Asia is practically mapless with the new native app. I froze! No way in **** was I going to update if I was going to lose such functionality. I've just arrived here 2 months ago, don't speak a word of the local language, feel like getting an audience with the Pope is simpler than giving a cab driver directions and the Google Maps app has often been a lifesaver for me here so far... As much as I want to get my hands on the rest of the new functions, it was a risk not worth taking.
Today I bump into a colleague of mine at work and he's just updated his iPad (2nd gen) to iOS6. I tell him all I've heard about the maps and he brings it up to the restaurant for lunch. I'm scrolling through the new map app and honestly don't find much of a difference. Now, seeing as everyone is whining about the uselessness of the directions the new app gives, I give it a test. I search for the Park Hyatt in Beijing. The Google Maps app used to give me 3 different results. The new app gives me one result only, it's correct and gives me the right directions to get there...
So, what is all the fuss on the new update??? So Apple got rid of Google Maps... Yes, it'll take time to get better but Apple so far have usually managed to do a pretty good job at doing that. At first, everyone was complaining about battery drainage... Nobody mentions it anymore... Strange... Is this intentional Apple bashing?... From what I've seen so far, I still don't get what all the fuss is about.
I'm going ahead with the update... Will let you know how it goes!

Hi,
What's the worst that I've spent 100 Eur alltogether for GPS map based applications for several sports - golf, bike, ski, etc. These applications use data from iPhone Map application and its disaster after my update onto iOS 6. These are pictures of 2 of my favorit golf resorts:
And here one example from a place where I use to bike:
Very nice, isn't it?
And unfortunately this problem won't disappear even when Google put stand alone map application into iStore.
So I have only way to downgrade to 5.1.1 immediately to not throw away money I already spent.

POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

What if all the redo logs of a database are lost
