V$ARCHIVE_DEST

V$ARCHIVE_DEST displays, for the current instance, all of the destinations in the Data Guard configuration, including each destination's current value, mode, and status.

Column Datatype Description
DEST_ID NUMBER Log archive destination parameter identifier (1 to 10)
DEST_NAME VARCHAR2(256) Log archive destination parameter name
STATUS VARCHAR2(9) Identifies the current status of the destination:
  • VALID - Initialized and available

  • INACTIVE - No destination information

  • DEFERRED - Manually disabled by the user

  • ERROR - Error during open or copy

  • DISABLED - Disabled after error

  • BAD PARAM - Parameter has errors

  • ALTERNATE - Destination is in an alternate state

  • FULL - Exceeded quota size for the destination

BINDING VARCHAR2(9) Specifies how failure will affect the archival operation:
  • MANDATORY - Successful archival is required

  • OPTIONAL - Successful archival is not required (depends on LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST)

NAME_SPACE VARCHAR2(7) Identifies the scope of parameter setting:
  • SYSTEM - System definition

  • SESSION - Session definition

TARGET VARCHAR2(7) Specifies whether the archive destination is local or remote to the primary database:
  • PRIMARY - local

  • STANDBY - remote

ARCHIVER VARCHAR2(10) Identifies the archiver process relative to the database where the query is issued:
  • ARCn

  • FOREGROUND

  • LGWR

  • RFS

SCHEDULE VARCHAR2(8) Indicates whether the archival of this destination is INACTIVE, PENDING, ACTIVE, or LATENT
DESTINATION VARCHAR2(256) Specifies the location where the archived redo logs are to be archived
LOG_SEQUENCE NUMBER Identifies the sequence number of the last archived redo log to be archived
REOPEN_SECS NUMBER Identifies the retry time (in seconds) after error
DELAY_MINS NUMBER Identifies the delay interval (in minutes) before the archived redo log is automatically applied to a standby database
MAX_CONNECTIONS NUMBER Maximum number of connections
NET_TIMEOUT NUMBER Number of seconds the log writer process will wait for status from the network server of a network operation issued by the log writer process
PROCESS VARCHAR2(10) Identifies the archiver process relative to the primary database, even if the query is issued on the standby database:
  • ARCn

  • FOREGROUND

  • LGWR

REGISTER VARCHAR2(3) Indicates whether the archived redo log is registered in the remote destination control file (YES) or not (NO). If the archived redo log is registered, it is available to log apply services.
FAIL_DATE DATE Date and time of last error
FAIL_SEQUENCE NUMBER Sequence number of the archived redo log being archived when the last error occurred
FAIL_BLOCK NUMBER Block number of the archived redo log being archived when the last error occurred
FAILURE_COUNT NUMBER Current number of contiguous archival operation failures that have occurred for the destination
MAX_FAILURE NUMBER Allows you to control the number of times log transport services will attempt to reestablish communication and resume archival operations with a failed destination
ERROR VARCHAR2(256) Displays the error text
ALTERNATE VARCHAR2(256) Alternate destination, if any
DEPENDENCY VARCHAR2(256) Reserved for future use
REMOTE_TEMPLATE VARCHAR2(256) Specifies the template to be used to derive the location to be recorded
QUOTA_SIZE NUMBER Destination quotas, expressed in bytes
QUOTA_USED NUMBER Size of all the archived redo logs currently residing on the specified destination
MOUNTID NUMBER Instance mount identifier
TRANSMIT_MODE VARCHAR2(12) Specifies network transmission mode:
  • SYNCHRONOUS

  • PARALLELSYNC

  • ASYNCHRONOUS

ASYNC_BLOCKS NUMBER Number of blocks specified for the ASYNC attribute
AFFIRM VARCHAR2(3) Specifies disk I/O mode
TYPE VARCHAR2(7) Indicates whether the archived log destination definition is PUBLIC or PRIVATE. Only PUBLIC destinations can be modified at runtime using the ALTER SYSTEM SET or ALTER SESSION SET statements. By default, all archived log destinations are PUBLIC.
VALID_NOW VARCHAR2(16) Indicates whether the destination is valid right now for archival operations:
  • YES - Redo log type and database role for this destination are valid for the current database

  • WRONG VALID_TYPE - Redo log type specified for this destination is not valid for the current database role. For example, WRONG VALID_TYPE would be returned if a destination specified with the VALID_FOR=(STANDBY_LOGFILE,STANDBY_ROLE) attribute is running in the standby database role but does not have standby redo logs implemented.

  • WRONG VALID_ROLE - Database role specified for this destination is not the role in which the database is currently running. For example, the WRONG VALID_ROLE would be returned when a destination defined with the VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILE,STANDBY_ROLE) attribute is running in the primary database role.

  • INACTIVE - Destination is inactive, probably due to an error

VALID_TYPE VARCHAR2(15) Redo log type or types that are valid for the destination:
  • ONLINE_LOGFILE

  • STANDBY_LOGFILE

  • ALL_LOGFILES

VALID_ROLE VARCHAR2(12) Database role or roles that are valid for the destination:
  • PRIMARY_ROLE

  • STANDBY_ROLE

  • ALL_ROLES

DB_UNIQUE_NAME VARCHAR2(30) Unique database name
VERIFY VARCHAR2(3) Indicates whether the value of the VERIFY attribute on the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameter is verified (YES) or not verified (NO)
COMPRESSION VARCHAR2(7) Indicates whether network compression is ENABLED or DISABLED.
