RE: what did I miss? -- nologging generating redo

Since you mentioned Standby database and depending on the version of Oracle you have (9202 here), have you disable NOLOGGING at the database level by using "ALTER DATABASE FORCE LOGGING" (If I remember the syntax).

We have done exactly that to prevent any NOLOGGING operations since there's a standby database configured on a remote site and we wouldn't want any developers to use nologging to load a bunch of data that won't get sent to the standby site.

My off the cuff response is "did you have direct=yes" set in the parm file or on the command line?

IIRC this is basically the same as using the '/*+ APPEND *' hint in an INSERT statement.

Allright I have a developer that is loading a few gig of historical data, that will only be used for a very short period of time. I wanted to avoid dealing with all the redo this is going to create. I created a new tablespace using the nologging option. The table and it's indexes were created with the nologging option. Yet as the developer started his load, using sqlloader, I got swamped with redo logs. The only problem this presents is that we have a standby db that is located offsite, and at times
when we have heavy redo activity the archiver processes swamp our bandwidth.
So no harm was really done, except I have to manually transfer all those archived logs. I am just wondering what I missed.

Thanks,
Steve
