Hi,

i had a scenario where in the archive log process was not able to write the logs on the disk because the disk went out of space. I would like to know, in this scenario when the ARCH process is trying to archive the redo logs, is it possible to login to the Database ( i mean can some user connect to data base by establishing a session).

Thanks

>is it possible to login to the Database
IIRC, only SYS can log into the DB under this condition.

Hi anacedent,

what is it that stops us from creating a new session with the DB.

Thanks

HI,
what is it that stops us from creating a new session with the DB.

When any user want to create new session then they will get below error. so you don't need to do anything.

Thanks for the confimative answer. I would further bug you with one more question as to what happens in the server side when ARCH process is hung and a session request comes from a workstation. I understand that the redo logs maintain the compiled inverse code for any DML operation performed on the database, so is it linked to session creation be any user.

Thanks
