Operations that are performed as nologging will still generate redo for the following: Space management (updates to the data dictionary) Undo/rollback (each insert generates an undo entry which generates a redo entry)
-----Original Message----- Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2002 1:39 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi. A developer of mine is running a large insert as select: insert /* parallel hint */ into table A nologging (select * from table b where ...); There are no indices on table A and a PK disabled. Still that insert generates a large amount of logs. What could be the reason for that? Any ideas? Table A is not partitioned and has NOLOGGING attribute on the dba_tables set to Yes. thanks Gene __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
