John -
I had this same question not too long ago. This is what I found in
the documentation.
Only the following operations can make use of the NOLOGGING option:
alter table...move partition
alter table...split partition
alter index...split partition
alter index...rebuild
alter index...rebuild partition
create table...as select
create index
direct load with SQL*Loader
direct load INSERT
Other SQL statements (such as UPDATE, DELETE, conventional path
INSERT, and various DDL statements not listed above) are unaffected
by the NOLOGGING attribute of the schema object.
HTH.
