Hello,

I am facing a weird situation. I have a database sets in archivelog mode, and archiving is automatic. The archive destination is set to the recovery flash area through the use of USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE.

SQL> archive log list;
mode Database log              mode Archive
Archivage automatique             Activ�
Destination de l'archive             USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST
S�quence de journal en ligne la plus ancienne     1099
S�quence de journal suivante � archiver      1099
S�quence de journal courante            1103

I issued the following code

SQL> alter system archive log start

Then

alter system switch logfile

at least 3 times. A folder named after today's date has been created, but it is empty. It shows nothing inside it.

Is it normal? If no, how can I see them?
