One option is using the create table unrecoverable as select... While not DML, in some circumstances it can accomplish the same thing depending on your desired result set. It's not a perfect solution. I don't know of anyway off the top of my head to simply avoid generating redo on generic dml statements which manipulate data.

Even if the DML is not logged, the generation of UNDO is still logged for rollback purposes. -----Original Message----- Sent: Monday, January 06, 2003 2:34 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi All, I want to avoid generation of archivelogs against all the DML applied to some tables.
