I'm wondering how our new production dB doesn't produce any archived log files since it was launch last August of this year. I can't see any of the said files specified at the /u1archive directory of the server.

Any advice would be highly appreciated.

Thank you.

It seems that your database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode. Is it?

...or maybe the archived log destination is not "/u1archive".

Thanks for this.

I tried selecting the v$archived_log and it shows "no rows selected". The init.ora file has no referenced for the NOARCHIVELOG MODE (whether TRUE or FALSE), but it had a log_dest_archive path and a log_archived_files format.

So nothing has been generated in the database as this view is filled whatever is the archive log mode.

This is not an instance property but a database one and so is not in the (instance) configuration file.
See v$database.
