Kart,
There is no magic bullet in that query, it was just for your information, so
you can provide something more useful than the size of your online redo log
files.
So, asking again: what are you seeing that made you say, "the log buffer seems
too small". From this query, you can see when redo generation gets high. During
those times, are you seeing anything that indicates any kind of "bottleneck" in
redo processing?
Thanks!
-Tim

Tim,
this is a typical workload when the batch is running on the database.

Bear in mind that the size of the online redo log files has no causal relation
to the size of the log buffer, and vice-versa. What matters is the rate with
which redo is written, and the frequency of COMMIT commands by the application.
For the first bit of information, try the following SQL*Plus script...
clear breaks
break on day skip 1 on hr on report
compute sum of gb on day
compute sum of gb on report
col sort0 noprint
col cnt format 999,990
col gb format 999,990.00
select trunc(completion_time,'HH24') sort0,
to_char(trunc(completion_time,'HH24'),'DD-MON-YYYY') day,
to_char(trunc(completion_time,'HH24'),'HH24')||':00' hr,
inst_id,
count(*) nbr_switches,
sum(blocks*block_size)/(1048576*1024) gb
from gv$archived_log
group by trunc(completion_time,'HH24'),
to_char(trunc(completion_time,'HH24'),'DD-MON-YYYY'),
to_char(trunc(completion_time,'HH24'),'HH24')||':00',
inst_id
order by 1, 2, 3, 4;
That will give you some idea of the rate and volume. Of course, this query may
end up double-counting redo volumes if you have additional archive destinations
set up, so be aware of that and adjust accordingly.
Hope this helps...
Thanks!

All ,
my online redo logs are 3G . This is a batch intensive datawarehouse
application. What should i be keeping my log_buffer .
currently it is set at 29425664 and it just seems too low .
thanks
