RE: log_archive_dest_state_2

Nevermind, i got it working as an overflow device, it works beautifully. I 
set up a primary destination, setup an alternate destinatoipn and when 
primary got full, it started writing to optional automatically.

Not sure if anyone cares, but let me know and I'll post the specifics.

Hi Joe,
 
The secondary location isn’t an ‘overflow’ one; it gets written to 
concurrently  with the primary.  If you are having space issues, a good 
option is to run rman archivelog backup periodically to backup the files 
and move them someplace else.  Make sure to ‘delete input’ or ‘delete all 
input’ depending on your need to keep one or both of your archival 
locations cleaned up.

Ok so i'm trying to setup a process so we have an alternate location to 
write out archive logs.  It appears the log_archive_dest_state_2 with an 
option of alternate would fit the bill.  No matter what I do, the primary 
destination( on local filesystem on the server), once it fills up, then 
the archiver just hangs.  Am i thinking incorrectly in how this should 
work? 

linux, 11.1.0.7. 


thanks, joe
