What happens after Auditarchiver gets enabled ?

Posted by Lalit Kumar on 03-Nov-2017 07:24

We have Auditing area "audit_area" and auditing index area "audit_index" like

d "Audit_area":9,32;8 ......d1 f 204800

d "Audit_area":9,32;8 ......d2 

d "Audit_index":10,32;8 ......d1 f 204800

d "Audit_index":10,32;8 ......d2 

Currently data is going in d2 extent of both above areas.

If we enable auditarchive using - proutil prod-db -C auditarchive "date value = yesterday" then what happens

1. High Water Mark value maintained by DB will be same?? or less ??

2. After archiver new data will go in auditarea d1 or d2 ?

Thanks

A database does not lower the HWM of an area when records are deleted.

A database will write new data into blocks with free space.  If those blocks are in extent d1 or d2 or d3, the db doesn't care.
