Hi,

   I have an accounting package in Oracle 9i. The system is running in No Archive Mode. But now I need to run the database in Archive mode.

   The size of Redo log file is 100M (default size), no. of  redo log files is 3.

    I want the size of the archive log files not 100M but less, lets say 5M or 10M. I can do so by recreating the control files.

    I just want to know :what would be the optimal size of Redo Log Files (5M,10M, 20M,...). If size is 5M, archiver will frequently write the logs and if size is more (say 100M) archiver will not write frequently but while writing it takes long time.

   I hope some one has solution.

   Thanx in advance.

Yours,

Anup(Nepal)

No need to re-create control files to change redo log file size. You only need to add more members or redo group with desired zsize, then drop old redolog members or groups.

Size depends on the application. And depends also on hardware, maybe you don't even notice the performance drop if you resize your redo to 5mb.....
you can do some tests....

Best luck.
Looking for remote job.
