So if you force Oracle into the Hobson's choice of obeying your delay versus
stopping updates on the primary they allow your delay to be comprimised to
keep things rolling. I believe that is a bug. Here is my reasoning:
Injection of a delay is a security and/or safety mechanism which must always
trump performance (even a temporary hang.) Of course you can logically
infinitely (and indefinitely within the space available) extend the wrap
window by adding online log groups, so there is always and out. This is
essentially the same situation as archiver stuck due to no available space
on the archive device, and consistent logic should be applied in unwrapping
the dilemna.

 

So I think they should be making the other choice to the degree that I would
call it a bug. On the other hand, even if you agree with me that it is a
bug, it is a bug that for all practical purposes you can avoid.

 

I hope what I just wrote makes sense to all y'all.

 

Joe you push the coolest corner cases going.

Well i forced enough log switches to have gone thru all of the redo logs,
and that forced it across, I'm thinking that even though I asked to redo log
delay, its really falling back to archive logs apply, time to go and dig in
the DRC*.logs. 

thanks, joe
