select * from v$database, will give info on archivelog or noarchivelog mode. I assume you are running in noarchivelog mode, or your database would come to a halt (update|insert only) when all online redologs are full, and the archiver is unsuccessfull in archiving (disk full?). /svend Jensen Received on Sun Feb 17 2002 - 05:41:11 CST
