Hi,
I am getting the error ORA-00257: archiver error. Connect internal only, until freed.

I am able to solve it for now by increasing the DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE .

How can I do it without increasing the DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE.



SQL> show parameter db_recovery_file_dest;

NAME TYPE VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
db_recovery_file_dest string /data0/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area

db_recovery_file_dest_size big integer 6G

SQL> SELECT * FROM V$RECOVERY_FILE_DEST;

NAME
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPACE_LIMIT SPACE_USED SPACE_RECLAIMABLE NUMBER_OF_FILES
----------- ---------- ----------------- ---------------
/data0/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area
6442450944 4449029120 0 94


I delete some files from /data0/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area but still that is not reduced from SPACE_USED.

How can this be done.

Thanks in advance..

Hi,
I have deleted the archivelog using the following commands.


$rman target /
RMAN>delete archivelog until time 'SYSDATE-1';

before doing this i deleted some files manually us "rm -rf" Oracle still shows that space as occupied, as those files are not properly deleted is there any way i can reclaim the space.

SQL> SELECT * FROM V$RECOVERY_FILE_DEST;

NAME
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPACE_LIMIT SPACE_USED SPACE_RECLAIMABLE NUMBER_OF_FILES
----------- ---------- ----------------- ---------------
/data0/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area
6442450944 2449565696 0 53

while total number of files is not 53 in the filesystem .

Hi,

The output of crosscheck command is shown below(not full output).

I am getting error "validation failed for archived log" for the files which I have deleted using "rm -rf" . that space still remains claimed as used by oracle.

Now "delete expired".

I think you should read Database Backup and Recovery Reference.
