Oracle 9.2.0.5
RedHat 9 enterprise linux.

Hi,

Is there a way to specify alternate archive log destination in Oracle 9i.
ie. If specified destination is full write to some other alternate location.

From what I have read using LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST and
LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST you can specify two locations, but in this case archive logs are writen to both the locations simultaneously.

I believe "alter system set" is the way to specify the archivelog parameters without restarting the instance.

i want to specify two locations where archivelogs should not be written simultaneously to both location, but written to 2nd destination if the first destination is full.

If you have Entreprise Edition, use LOG_ARCHIVE_LOG_DESTn parameters instead.

Quote:
If you want to archive only to a single destination, you specify that destination in the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST initialization parameter. If you want to multiplex the archived logs, you can choose whether to archive to up to ten locations (using the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameters)

Quote:

Whenever Oracle archives a redo log, it archives it to every destination specified by either set of parameters



I do not want to archives it to every destination specified.
but want to archive it to first destination, when first destination is full archive to second destination.

Is this possible anyways?
