Hi,

Can anyone explain how I can determine which objects and/or processes are
causing logging/archiving to occur?  I have a (large) database whereby all
tables required to be populated with data on regular batch runs have been
created with nologging.  The tablespaces they reside on were also created
with nologging.  There are no constraints (eg triggers) on these tables
that could possibly be invoking logging yet my archive destination
directory is filling up on a regular basis with unknown archived data!!

I have a script to remove redundant archive files but the point is why is
it filling up and with what??

There are only a few tables with logging activated but these are relatively
small with minimal inserts/updates.

The following entries are taken from the parameter file (don't know whether
this may help)....

db_block_buffers         = 70000
   db_block_size            = 16384
   db_block_lru_latches     = 4
   compatible               = 8.1.0
   log_archive_start        = TRUE
   log_archive_dest_1       = location=archive_directory
   log_archive_format       = arch_%t_%s.arc
   log_buffer               = 163840
   log_checkpoint_interval  = 10000000
   log_checkpoint_timeout   = 1800
   db_file_multiblock_read_count= 16

I am considering shutting down the database and changing the status of the
database to noarchivelog mode, perform the data loads and then shutdown and
reset to archivelog mode.  I'm aware of the recovery implications.

We're using 8i on Solaris 2.6...and yes I'm fairly new to Oracle ;-)
TIA
Grant
