hi,
on weekends we have too many archive logs generated .i have taken the data of a week and found that average archive log generated from monday to friday is 7 files per day but on satuarday and sunday the average is 60 files and FG1 gets full. on weekends we have all type of backups running like incremental,archival and logical backups and on sunday we have full physical backup

Can anyone guide what is the reason of too many archive log files generations at weekends. is it due to hot and logical backups , if yes then how ?


please guide

Regards

DML results in REDO
DBMS_LOGMNR can reveal what is be changed.

NO! backups are READONLY operations
