  Please correct me if am doin wrong

  because when I run the statement I have error message saying: the group is already created.

  Thanks John

  I just found the answer

  Yes, it of recomeded to add the new group, for instnace if I have 10 group of 1 to 10, then the wait should be from 11 to 20

• Waiting for redo log

  Hello
  in 10g R2 what are / can be the causes of waiting for redo log?
  
  Thank you.

  example of waiting for recovery logs causes may be:
  -does not redo groups (remember to add one more, if necessary)
  -low rate of I/O
  -Redo large log buffer (take a long time for the dump file data) - refers to the slow storage
  -application hurt writes, making many validations

  Run the Advisor of the ADDM, and see the recommendations. Look at the first 5 albums events. Maybe it's not relevant to DBTime?

  If you have a backup to cold (closing correctly database) without the redo logs, change this:

  CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "XE" NORESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
  

  TO

  CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "XE" RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
  

  You need to change the NORESETLOGS RESETLOGS for Oracle to recreate online redo logs.

• That redo log files waiting?

  Hello Experts,

  I read articles on the log redo and undo segment files. I was wondering something very simple. That redo log files waiting in there? It stores the sql statements?

  Lets say that my update statement to modify 800 blocks of data. A unique single update statement can modify different data 800 right blocks? Yes, it may be true. I think that these data blocks can not hold buffers to the log to roll forward, right? I mean I know exactly what to do redo log buffer and redo log file. And I know that the task of backgrounding LGWR. But, I wonder if she she holds the data blocks? It is not supposed to hold data like cache buffer blocks, right?

  My second question is, rollback isn't effect to restore the newspaper to the right buffer? Because it does not need log buffer for effect do it again. Conversely, the restoration; statement is included in the restore log buffer by progression when someone isse, am I right?

  As far as I know, rollback interact directly with UNDO TABLESPACE?

  I hope that I have to express myself clearly.

  Thanks in advance.

  Here's my question:

  My second question is, rollback isn't effect to restore the newspaper to the right buffer? Because it does not need log buffer for effect do it again. Conversely, the restoration; statement is included in the restore log buffer by progression when someone isse, am I right?

  As far as I know, rollback interact directly with UNDO TABLESPACE?

  Yes, where else would the undo data come from? Undo tablespace contains the Undo segments that contain the Undo data required for the restoration of your transaction.

  I can say that rollback does not alter the data of the log buffer rede to the past. In other words, change vectors will be remain the same before restoration. Conversely, rollback command is also recorded in the log file of restoration by progression. As the name, all orders are saved in the REDO LOGS.

  I hope that I am wrong so far?

  Not sure why you even the buffer log roll forward for Rollback? This is the reason why I asked you it was for, where occurs the dose the cancellation? And the answer for this is that it happens in the buffer cache. Before you worry about the drivers of change, you must understand that it is not serious what contains where as long as there is no transaction recorded in the operating of the Undo segment table. If the operating table indicates that the transaction is longer there, there must be a cancellation of the transaction. Vectors of change are saved in the file log roll forward, while the restore happens on blocks of data stored in the file "data" undo blocks stored in the undo file "data".

  At the same time I read an article about redo and undo. In this article process transaction is explained. Here is the link http://pavandba.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/undo_redo1.pdf

  I found some interesting information in this article as follows.

  It is worth noting that during the restore process, recovery logs never participate. The only time where redo logs are read is retrieving and archiving. This is the concept of tuning key: redo logs are written on. Oracle does not read during normal processing. As long as you have sufficient devices so that when the ARC is reading a file, LGWR's writing to a different device, then there no contention for redo logs.

  If redo logs are never involved in the restoration process, how is it Oracle will then know the order of the transaction? As far as I know it is only written in redo logs.

  I have thoughts very amazed to Aman.

  Why you ask?

  Now, before giving a response, I say two things. One, I know Pavan and he is a regular contributor to this forum and on several other forums Facebook and two, with all due respect to him, a little advice for you, when you try to understand a concept, to stick to the Oracle documentation and do not read and merge articles/blog-posts from the web. Everone, which publishes on the web, has their own way to express things and many times, the context of the writing makes it more confusing things. Maybe we can erase the doubts that you can get after reading the various search results on the web.

  Redo logs used for the restoration, not to restore. The reason is the redo log files are applied in sequential order, and this is not the case when we look for the restoration. A restore is required to do for a few blocks away. Basically, what happens in a restoration, is that the records of cancellation required for a block of data are sought in the reverse order of their creation. The entry of the transaction is in the slot ITL of the block of data that point to the necessary undo bytes Address (UBA) using which oracle also knows what that undo the blocks would be necessary for the restoration of your transaction. As soon as the blocks of data will be cancelled, the ITL slots would be cleared as well.

  In addition, you must remember, until the transaction is not qualified as finished, using either a commit or a rollback, the cancellation of this data would remain intact. The reason for this is that oracle would ensure that undo data would be available to make the cancellation of the transaction. The reason why Undo data are also recorded in the journals of recovery is to ensure that in the event of the loss of the cancellation of the data file, retrieving them would be possible. Because it would also require changes that's happened on the blocks cancel, restore the vectors change associated with blocks of cancellation are also saved in the buffer log roll forward and, in the redo log files.

• bottleneck during the passage of the redo log files.

  Hi all
  
  I'm using Oracle 11.2.0.3.
  
  The enforcement team has indicated that they are facing slow at some point.
  
  I followed the database and I found that at some passage of redo log files (not always), I am facing a slow at the application level.
  
  I have 2 son since my database is CARS, each thread has 3 groups of multiplexed redo logs the FIU, with size of 300 MB each.
  
  Is it possible to optimize the switch of the redo log files? knowing that my database is running in ARCHIVELOG mode.
  
  Kind regards

  Hello

  Yes, Oracle recommends 1 validation by 30 calls from users or less. Of course, every database is different, so this rule cannot be taken too literally, but in your case, this rule seems to apply. In any case State, 900 undertakes seconds it looks like a very large number and the need for a high number of transactions should be questioned. You should talk to your analysts/application management/enterprise architect if warranted - that is to say if the application does in fact almost 2 000 business transactions per second.

  What about DB CPU: here is a link to a blog that I wrote on this subject, it should help to better understand this number:

  http://Savvinov.com/2012/04/06/AWR-reports-interpreting-CPU-usage/

  But briefly: DB processor isn't a real event, it is simply an indication that the sessions are on CPU (or waiting for CPU) rather than wait on i/o requests or events in the database. It is not necessarily a bad thing, because the database must perform tasks and he cannot do without loading the CPU. It may indicate a problem in two cases: when the CPU usage is close to the limit of the host (OS stats section indicates that you are very far from there) or when the CPU is a % of DB time - in the latter case, this could mean that you are making too many logical reads due to inefficient plans or analysis too. In any case, this does not apply to you, because 20 percent is not very high a number.

  Other items in the list of the top 5 deserve attention, too - gc buffer busy acquire, gc current block busy, enq: TX - line lock conflict.

  To summarize, your database under a lot of stress - whether it is the legitimate workload, and if this is the case, you may need to upgrade your hardware later. There is chance that it isn't - for example a high number of runs may indicate that rather than to bulk operations database code using PL/SQL loops, which is a big performance killer. Check "Top SQL by executions" about whether or not this is the case.

  Good luck!

• Loss of all Redo Log files

  Hello

  It's for testing purposes and practice of recovery scenarios. Database is in log mode archive. My question would be on the scenario in which we loose that redo all online log files available.

  Now after doing a lot of research on the internet I could find two scenarios.

  CASES1

  My recovery logs have been lost. But I could stop normal or immediate of the database. In this case I could perform incomplete recovery using my archived logs and re create the logs online redo with the resetlogs option.

  CAS2 (my question)

  My recovery logs have been lost and the system crashed. Now, oracle would need perform a recovery of proceeding on re start, however there is no present setpoint recovery to perform this restore.

  Is it not possible to recover the database, even if I have a valid backup? If there is, how do you do that?

  Thank you

  If you lose all copies of online redo logs, you lost all those transactions. Data files may or may not have some or all of the data of those redo logs. You need restore the database and retrieve it at the point in time of the last series of archive logs (at the latest) and go from there.

  But guess what? Oracle expected that someone might have a question like that, and actually (gasp) has documented the scenario:

• SIZE OF THE REDO LOG FILE

  
  Hello

  I got an error message when I add me new group. log files I searched and found the answer on the form. Ago 4 M minimum size of 11 g R2 log file size.

  My question is why a log file size depends on DB_BLOCK_SIZE? This parameter is set to the component structures of memory that create an instance when a log file is an operating system file that depend on the version of the OS not DB_BLOCK_SIZE.

  Thank you.

  SQL >

  You are assuming that the redo log block size is the same as the database block size. This is not correct.

  The error indicates that 8192 is the minimum number of blocks of a redo log file. The documentation states that the minimum size is 4 M. For example, you can deduct your redo log block size is 512 bytes.

  Here's some more information about the size of redo log, the documentation block.

  Unlike the database block size, which can always be between 2 K and 32 K, redo log default files to a block size that is equal to the size of physical sector of the disk. Historically, it is usually 512 bytes (512 b).

  Some new large disks offer 4K sizes byte (4K) to increase sector efficiency improved format and ECC capabilities. Most of the Oracle database platforms are able to detect this bigger sector size. The database then automatically creates files redo log with a block size of 4 K of these discs.

• Redo-log files

  Hi guys,.

  No one knows the best practices or solution for 'redo-logs"for my virtual machines.

  Reason being, when I arrived this morning I was unable to access one of my virtual machines because there is no place for newspapers in recovery.

  The message I got is the following: 'There is no more space for the redo logs from the server - 0000001.vmdk.'.

  Unfortunately, I can run in this situation again in my entire farm VM boot from SAN and there are recovery logs are located in the working directory of the virtual machine, where they were created.

  I know that I can move the files to the disk HARD locally on the host computer, but what happens when the VMotion to another host server when that he was conducting fails?

  The virtual machine becomes unusable or not & I need to clear all these newspapers?

  Ideas or thinking about how to prevent this from happening again would be more appreciated?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I assume you are using VMware ESX 2.5? Is this correct?

  If it's not then they are instant and in all cases to pass by and post your shots or REDO logs down VM. You must not be run with these as they tend to be expensive.

  The solution is really to free disk space, so you can remove the redo/snapshot files.

• What is the role of the archived in an incremental backup redo log files?

  I want to know, to which RMAN reads what block of data is changed after the last incremental backup.
  and what is the role of the archived in an incremental backup redo log files?
  
  Please guide.

  Hello

  First Querstion response->
  Each block of data in a data file contains a system change number (SCN), which is the SCN of the last change to the block. During an incremental backup, RMAN reads the RCS of each block of data in the input file and compares at the checkpoint SCN of the incremental backup from parent. If the RCS in the block of input data is greater than or equal to checkpoint SCN of the parent, then RMAN copies the block.

  2 - the archived redolog files are required for the restoration of the online of rman incremental backup in a consistent state.

• Redo log entries to the online redo log files

  Hello

  I'm a little confused about the redo log entries.

  I learned that LGWR writes redo log entries in the SGA, in redo log files in the following situation:

  -3 seconds after the last validation

  -redo log buffer has 1 MB

  -redo log buffer data 1/3

  When I take a transaction and if I change the wrong data, I have to cancel this transaction BUT the right now,

  What happens if the LGWR writes redo log disk entries?

  Is the bad transaction committed at all times?

• new with OMF online redo log files

  Hi all
  
  I'm using Oracle 11 g 2, I created my DB using Oracle managed (OMF) files.
  
  I wanted to re size my recovery connects so I went in an old redo logs fall and create a new.
  
  That was how my redo logs resembles. It was created by the creation of the DB with OMF format:

  .../app/oradata/ORCL11/onlinelog/o1_mf_1_6pfncw81_.log
  .../app/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11/onlinelog/o1_mf_1_6pfncx5z_.log
  .../app/oradata/ORCL11/onlinelog/o1_mf_2_6pfncxps_.log
  .../app/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11/onlinelog/o1_mf_2_6pfncz1v_.log
  .../app/oradata/ORCL11/onlinelog/o1_mf_3_6pfnczhd_.log
  .../app/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11/onlinelog/o1_mf_3_6pfnd0vw_.log

  using the script I created new below redo logs

  alter database add logfile group 1 (
  '.../app/oradata/ORCL11/onlinelog/redo1.log',  
  '.../app/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11/onlinelog/redo1.log') size 76m reuse;

  .........
  and I added the new redo log group
  

  alter database add logfile group 4 (
  '.../app/oradata/ORCL11/onlinelog/redo4.log',  
  '.../app/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11/onlinelog/redo4.log') size 76m reuse;

  I was not able to create the recovery logs, where is the name of the redo log file: o1_mf_1_6pfncw81_.log, since this is the format OMF.
  
  My question by creating my recovery connects the way does it have an impact? on the archiving of newspapers of recovery? any impact on the database for now, this isn't OMF?
  
  How can I create my redo logs with OMF format?
  
  Kind regards
