From: maadhuuranjan.m on 3 Jan 2008 01:40 Hello all, I am trying to set up Oracle for Dataguard in 10g for a Physical standby and its working correctly. Now I have the following doubt : When we create a database using dbca, the Flash database window allows you to enter the place where you want this to happen and there is a default size of 2048 MB . Now when I see the spfile, I see that the following 2 parameters are set db_recovery_file_dest and db_recovery_file_dest_size which is again fine. Now, when I try to set up Archive log for these, by default it does : log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,A LL_ROLES) and now I am very apprehensive about this space (2048MB) being completely used up so quickly that no more archivals will take place. I was also reading about this online and it says that : The size of the flash recovery area at any one time is a function of: * Copies of all datafiles * Incremental backups * Online redo logs * Archived redo logs * Flashback logs * Current Controlfile * Controlfile autobackups and SPFILEs What do you think I should be doing ? Should I use separate locations for archived redo logs, online redo logs and backups using RMAN or do you think I should just try to increase the size from 2048MB to around 30 GB ? thanks, Madhu M

For one part of the puzzle this may help: SELECT estimated_flashback_size FROM gv$flashback_database_log; -- Daniel A.
