Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Are redo logs flushed after instance shutdown?
Greetings wise ORACLE practitioners:
A nice fellow deleted the redo logs from my db when I wasn't looking. Never mind that, it is a long story. My question is: When the db was shut down normally, are all of the redo logs flushed to the archive file system (db is in archivelog mode)? If so, will the db re-create the log files that are defined in the init<sid>.ora file upon startup? I do have a full, off-line backup of the db, so I can recreate the files if needed.
Any help or opinions are greatly appreciated.
