Thanks Asif for responding & the advice

Redo Logfiles are being MOVED to RAW Devices to handle this wait.
6 Redo Log Groups exist with 2 Members each(Multiplexed) , size 750 MB

Storage Box is a SAN Storage - Hitachi , Storage Box Model - Sun StoreEdge - 
9990
OS Block Size 8K
Stripe Unit size 64 K
Total Cache on the storage box – 128 GB
Cache Management Policy - Write Behind

CIO/DIO - am NOT sure if it is used.

Cheers

Vivek

Hi Vivek,

"log buffer space" wait event occurs normally when Log Writer is too slow or 
when the log buffer is too small.

I think in your case LGWR is slow.

> Currently The Redo logfiles are on Mounted filesystem.

What is the OS block size of this mount point?

Did you enable CIO/DIO on this mount point?

How many redo log members do you have?

Regards

Asif Momen

Folks

During a Benchmark Run on Batch Type Transactions on NON-RAC Database using 
Dedicated sessions following High "log buffer space" wait is seen.
NOTE - Increasing log_buffer size from 7Mb to 32 Mb only resulted in a further 
REDUCED Performance.

Currently The Redo logfiles are on Mounted filesystem.
Qs Will moving the Redo back to RAW Devices also Reduce the "log buffer space" 
wait wait for BATCH Runs?

NOTE - Previously, For OLTP type Transactions on the SAME Database, High "log 
file sync" wait was also seen with Redo on Mounted filesystem which 
disappreared when the Redo were moved to RAW Devices.
