Workflow logs - Delete or Archive?

Hello
The tables SWW_*, SWWWIHEAD, SWWLOGHIST, SWPNODELOG, SWPSTEPLOG are growing rapidly in our system, totalling over 100 GB. We are considering archiving/deleting old work items, i.e. older than three months that are in status completed.
What are the risks in terms of data integrity / auditability when deleting these logs, in other words, do we have to archive the old work items or can we simply dleete them?
Thanks
Wilhelm

Hi,
Check the T.code SARA.

How to find out who deleted the archive logs

Hi All,
Recently some archive logs were deleted from one of our servers. Is there any way to find out which user has deleted the archive logs through OS or through database ?
OS Version :-

But you can probably find the history of OS command been run with history command :). You can get the date and time.

*HOW TO DELETE THE ARCHIVE LOGS ON THE STANDBY*

HOW TO DELETE THE ARCHIVE LOGS ON THE STANDBY
I have set the RMAN CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO APPLIED ON STANDBY; on my physical standby server.
My archivelog files are not deleted on standby.
I have set the CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE; # default on the Primary server.
I've checked the archivelogs with the FRA and they are not beign deleted on the STANDBY. Do I have to do something for the configuation to take effect? Like run a RMAN backup?
I've done a lot ofresearch and i'm getting mixed answers. Please help. Thanks in advanced.

Setting the Policy will not delete the Archive logs on the Standby. ( I found a thread where the Data Guard product manager says "The deletion policy on both sides will do what you want" ). However I still
like to clean them off with RMAN.
I would use RMAN to delete them so that it can use that Policy are you are protected in case of Gap, transport issue etc.
There are many ways to do this. You can simply run RMAN and have it clean out the Archive.
Example :
#!/bin/bash
# Name: db_rman_arch_standby.sh
# Purpose: Database rman backup
# Usage : db_rman_arch_standby <DBNAME>
if [ "$1" ]
then DBNAME=$1
else
echo "basename $0 : Syntax error : use . db_rman_full <DBNAME> "
exit 1
fi
. /u01/app/oracle/dba_tool/env/${DBNAME}.env
echo ${DBNAME}
MAILHEADER="Archive_cleanup_on_STANDBY_${DBNAME}"
echo "Starting RMAN..."
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target / catalog <user>/<password>@<catalog> << EOF
delete noprompt ARCHIVELOG UNTIL TIME 'SYSDATE-8';
exit
EOF
echo `date`
echo
echo 'End of archive cleanup on STANDBY'
mailx -s ${MAILHEADER} $MAILTO < /tmp/rmandbarchstandby.out
# End of ScriptThis uses ( calls an ENV) so the crontab has an environment.
Example ( STANDBY.env )
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ULIMIT=unlimited
ORACLE_SID=STANDBY
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0.2
ORA_NLS33=$ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls/admin/data

There are probably ten other/better ways to do this, but this works.

Thats not what I expected. Where is my mistake?

Hi,
I do new tests it's very strange.
BACKUP ARCHIVELOG command is not obeying the policy of archivelog.
You can open a SR on MOS. (to check bugs)
I reproduce the same test and the result was the same, it seems that this is a bug.

RMAN> list archivelog all;
specification does not match any archived log in the repositoryOracle Docs Says:
The BACKUP ARCHIVELOG ... DELETE INPUT command deletes archived log files after they are backed up.
This command eliminates the separate step of manually deleting archived redo logs.
With DELETE INPUT, RMAN deletes only the specific copy of the archived log chosen for the backup set.
With DELETE ALL INPUT, RMAN deletes each backed-up archived redo log file from all log archiving destinations.
As explained in "Configuring an Archived Redo Log Deletion Policy",
the BACKUP ... DELETE INPUT and DELETE ARCHIVELOG commands obey the archived redo log deletion policy
for logs in all archiving locations. For example, if you specify that logs should only be deleted when backed
up at least twice to tape, then BACKUP ... DELETE honors this policy.http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmbckba.htm#BRADV89524
But in ours case it's not honors this policy.
Only with the FORCE command should this happen. But it is not our case.
Oracle Docs:
If FORCE is not specified on the deletion commands,
then these deletion commands obey the archived log deletion policy.
If FORCE is specified, then the deletion commands ignore the archived log deletion policy.http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10643/rcmsynta010.htm#RCMRF113
Alternatively you can do the following:
Set the commands separately.
Check this:
RMAN> run {
2> backup archivelog all not backed up 2 times ;
3> delete archivelog all backed up 2 times to disk;
4> }

Script for automatic delete of archive logs/redologs

Hi Experts,
Do you have any idea on how to create a shell script. Actually the function of it, is to automatically deletes the archive logs/redologs if reaches the limit. Or is there any parameter to change to set the automatic deletion of archive logs/redologs.
Regards

Hi,
at first, archivelogs should always be saved to tape before you delete them. If you don't want to backup them, may be for a test system, you can suppress them in ORACLE instead to delete them later.
You can run the database in "NOARCHIVE LOG MODE". If you do so, the online redologs are not archived, they are still reused and overwritten. You can not run an online Backup, when the database is in noarchive log mode. If you want to backup the database, you have to run an offline backup.
Do not use the NOARCHIVE LOG MODE for production or developemet systems.
To change the archive log mode:
shutdown the database
startup mount;
alter database noarchivelog;
alter database open;
archive log list will show the actual status
regards Ulrich

Hi;
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF X DAYS; << it says how many days you will keep your db and archive backups If you set it 2 its mean 2 days bakcup will be keep your db backups
For your issue you can set this parameter or you can delete them manualy and then can run crosscheck from rman(Both method mention by Mdtaylor already)
For me i am also using this:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 7 DAYS;
delete noprompt backup of archivelog until time 'sysdate-4'; << My system is keep my backups 7 days but wiht this command i can delete sysdate-4 hours archivelog from system(Dont forget it will delete wiht hour base,i mean if your time is now 10.00 am than it will delete sysdate-4 until 10.00 am, you can see 10.20 asrchivelog on your system)

Deleting applied archives from standby

Hello Guys,
We have oracle 10g rel 2 on hp-ux
I feel this common question for dataguard implementation
Just want to check best way of deleting archives automatically from standby database,i have 2 methods in mind
as below
1)At os level shell script-finding last seqno from alert log at standby/or query v$views(select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log) ,passing it to script
using rman as :*delete archivelog until sequence seqno;*
or deleting at os level upto this seqno
(Making script is not issue with this functionality and scheduling it in cron)
2)by RMAN at standby
set alter system set "_log_deletion_policy"='ALL' scope=spfile;
set CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO APPLIED ON STANDBY;
however i have no plans to take backup at standby,still can i use above command
is it reliable i faced some issues in past inspite of this configurations archives were not deleted at standby
Please give your views is there any other method to delete archives automatically ,and which one is more preferred
and reliable method/best method
Thanks

ThanksConfigure RMAN to purge archivelogs after applied on standby [ID 728053.1]
logdeletion_policy parameter is static, so which you cant change dynamically, PRimary should bounce, If it is fine then you can go ahead.
If you do not have time, then prepare an RMAN script to delete the archives.

Deletion without archiving is not allowed in the production client

Hi Gurus!
I have a new problem with regards deleting products in the Production system in CRM. I can't seem to delete the product in Production Box using this report(COM_PRODUCT_DELETE_SINGLE). It gives me this error: 'Deletion without archiving is not allowed in the production client' I'm doing this to solve my issue with regards some of the products not having any Sales and Distribution Data. The steps i did below worked in QA box.
These are the steps i did in the QA box to delete the product:
1) I've deleted the products that has no sales data using the report COM_PRODUCT_DELETE_SINGLE. I went to COMMPR01 to tag the said products with a status 'To Archive' then saved it before I triggered this report.
2) I've registered it first in the table COMC_PR_TOOL_REG and filling up the necessary parameters
3) After Deleting the said products in CRM, I logged into R/3 to access the material (MM02). I just changed the sales text and saved it to trigger the replication in CRM.
When I checked the product in CRM, it worked. The Sales and Distribution Data is already shown.
Now I have a new problem with regards this procedure. I can't seem to delete the product in Production Box using this report. It gives me this error: 'Deletion without archiving is not allowed in the production client'
I have already followed the same procedure as to what I did in the QA box but for some reason it didn't work in the Production Box.
Could anyone please help me with this. Thanks!
Thanks & Regards
Nathan

I was able to solve the problem.
In Report COM_PRODUCT_DELETE_SINGLE,there is a special check in order for the productive system detection.
The logic in this program has a perform check_authority which will automatically produce the error and prevents you from deleting a product in the production system.
Solution:
I copied the program COM_PRODUCT_DELETE_SINGLE to new one ZCOM_PRODUCT_DELETE_SINGLE then I placed a comment on the PERFORM check_authority.

Deletion of archives

hi all,
Good day...Currently am deleting the archives in standby by using
rman target / LOG = $LOG <<EOF
run {
crosscheck archivelog all;
delete noprompt ARCHIVELOG ALL COMPLETED BEFORE 'sysdate-1';
EOFSince we need archives in standby for a day... i havent configured 'apply on standby'...How can i modify the above script in such a way that i deletes the archives older than sysdate-1 and which are applied archives......It should not delete the archives which are not applied...
thanks

One way but not sure it will be helpful for you or not.I didn't test it.Create that procedure within that schema which have rights to select the asm views v$asm_alias,v$asm_file.
SQL> declare
2 cursor c1 is
3 select al.name
4    from v$asm_alias al,v$asm_file af
5   where al.group_number=af.group_number
6     and al.file_number =af.file_number
7     and af.type='ARCHIVELOG'
8     and af.creation_date<sysdate-1;
9 v1 varchar2(500);
10 begin
11 for m in c1
12 loop
13    v1:='alter diskgroup <diskgroupname> drop file "<+diskgroupname/>||m1.name||"';
14    execute immediate v1;
15 end loop;
16 end;
17 .
SQL> /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.scheduled that above procedure within dbms_job
DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT (
   job       OUT BINARY_INTEGER,
   what      IN VARCHAR2,
   next_date IN DATE DEFAULT sysdate,
   interval IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'null',
   no_parse IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
   instance IN BINARY_INTEGER DEFAULT any_instance,
   force     IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE); Check more detail using oracle doc about dbms_job.
Note: I have not tested above procedure.

Can we delete the archived RS tables data in unix path?

Hi Experts
As you all know that when we perform RS table archiving we setup a Logical file path 'ARCHIVE_GLOBAL_PATH' pointing to the physical path '/usr/sap/<SYSID>/SYS/global/<FILENAME>' in unix system.
Here we have our RS table data in the unix path and this logical path will make sure that there are no problems with requests status.
Now our unix path has grown in size hence we would like to delete some archived data from this path. Could you pls confirm if we delete the data from this unix path will there be any problems with the requests status?
Simply can we delete the RS table archived data from the unix file path??
Thanks!!

Hi All
Any idea about this would be appreciated.
Thanks!!

Recipients view in workflow log

Hi all,
Today I noticed that Recipients list in workflow log for a particular task looks different if I log on with two different users.
For example I have a decision step with two possible agents US 00000001 and US 00000002.
If I logon with my user id I see recipients list like this:
Approval process
|--> US 00000001
|--> US 00000002
But If logon with another user id I see recipient list like this:
US 00000001
|--> US 00000002
Do you know if it is something related with configuration?
If yes what should we do to change it?
Thanks!

Document change via workflow log.......

Dear all
In our scenario, I am creating a word document in workflow.After creation its going to first level approver for his decision.consider he is not executed the doc.
When I check the status of document from the workflow log(from :Work item executed by me), its allowing me to change the doc.If I made any changes its updating the document,which is already waiting for decision.......Is this correct?Is there any possibilities to restict the document changes from the workflowlog view?
Not only for Word doc.......other doc also.........

I feel you can restrict this by putting some authorization. May be there is something you can restrict in the HOLD Document option.
Thanks
