pdb_archive_path

Identifies the directory path where Replication Agent expects to find archived redo log files. When archived redo log files or archived transaction log files are stored in the file system, the configuration parameter is set to a file system path.

Default

<not configured>

Values

A valid directory path on the machine that points to a location where Oracle places the archived redo log files. For example, 
ORACLE_HOME\oradata\orcl\archive
Archive logs stored in and managed by ASM are owned by the corresponding unique Oracle database name. If the Oracle database name differs from the global unique database name, you must set pdb_archive_path to both the name of the ASM disk group and the globally unique name of the database in which the archive logs are stored:
pdb_archive_path=+DISK_GROUP1/database_name
You can also set pdb_truncate_xlog to manually remove archive logs. Set the pdb_archive_path to the ASM disk group name, and precede the archive logs to be manually removed with a plus "+" sign.

Comments

  • You must set pdb_archive_path when configuration parameter pdb_include_archives is set to true, and you must set it to a valid location before Replication Agent can be placed in a Replicating state.

  • If Replication Agent cannot find an expected log record in the Oracle online redo logs, Replication Agent will search this directory for the archived log file containing the required record.
