We have a 10.2.0.3 two-node rac setup on windows. It would appear that the log miner's CONTINUOUS_MINE option does not work on Oracle RAC. Searching the Oracle 9 documentation I found a statement that said it did not work. Searching the Oracle 10 documentation I did not find the statement (I suspect it got lost in the re-write). I setup my log miner as follows: sys.DBMS_LOGMNR.add_logfile ( options => sys.dbms_logmnr.new, logfilename => 'G:\ORADATA\WINRACDB\REDO01.LOG') sys.DBMS_LOGMNR.add_logfile ( options => sys.dbms_logmnr.addfile, logfilename => 'G:\ORADATA\WINRACDB\REDO02.LOG') sys.DBMS_LOGMNR.add_logfile ( options => sys.dbms_logmnr. addfile, logfilename => 'G:\ORADATA\WINRACDB\REDO03.LOG') sys.DBMS_LOGMNR.add_logfile ( options => sys.dbms_logmnr. addfile, logfilename => 'G:\ORADATA\WINRACDB\REDO04.LOG') Then I start logging with: SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR( STARTSCN => 100462200, OPTIONS => SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR.DICT_FROM_ONLINE_CATALOG+ SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR.SKIP_CORRUPTION+ SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR.COMMITTED_DATA_ONLY ) And I see all of my changes: If I then call: SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR( STARTSCN => 100462200, OPTIONS => SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR.CONTINUOUS_MINE+ SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR.DICT_FROM_ONLINE_CATALOG+ SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR.SKIP_CORRUPTION+ SYS.DBMS_LOGMNR.COMMITTED_DATA_ONLY ) My changes disappear and the only entries I see have SEG_OWNER's of null, SYS, and SYSMAN. Is there some way I can get CONTINUOUS_MINE to work the same way as it does on a non-RAC system? Thanks. Guang -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
