Hi
Using Oracle 8.1.6.3 on solaris 2.7.
I am trying to put my database in archivelog mode.
When I try to shutdown the database using shutdown immediate, it just sits
there for ages.. (left it for 30 mins).
I've cancelled this and done a shutdown abort. (tried normal shutdown
after that, same)
Due to this when I try to put it archivelog mode after shutdown abort I
get a message saying that the database can't be put into archivelog mode
because recovery is needed.
TIA
