Arrange for downtime, then do the following from sqlplus:

SQL> CONNECT sys AS SYSDBA
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE NOARCHIVELOG;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;

Best regards.

But before doing that don't forget to change the parameters for the archive log options in the initialization file.....

I think the previous reply is given in reverse fashion.

If you want turn on ARCHIVELOG mode from NOARCHIVELOG

Use these stpes

Go to init parameter file

Set Archivelog parameters
log_archive_start=True
log_archive_format=%S.arc
log_Archive_dest=<Path for Archive log>

SQL> shutdown;
SQL> startup mount;
SQL> alter database archivelog;
SQL> alter database open;
SQL> select log_mode from v$database;

Note: Backup the database once you trun on ARCHIVELOG mode since exisiting Redo logs are no longer useful for recovery.
