Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Archive Mode On for Read Only DB
I have an 8i read only database that is used for query of images.
Occassionally, I back it up using OS utilities (cp, tar, TSM, etc) while
the db is open.
Question: Is there any benefit to having this db in archive log mode? Since it is in read only mode, I see no benefit or am I missing something?
Thanks for any insight you may provide,
Gene
