The Oracle 7.3 manual says:
To Recover From Loss of an Active Online Redo Log Group:
..... If the database was in ARCHIVELOG mode, incomplete media recovery must
be performed.....recovering up through the log before the damaged log.
So you will loose the data in the active redolog file. What you should do is
to have more than one redolog member in each group on separate disks to
eliminate a single point of failure.
