RE: Error to creat an archivelog file

 

  

I'm not going to look into it for time reasons, but will state that the
letters in your archive log format string... probably %S indicate that
you have a 'fixed' length format. This warning apparently has been
around awhile as your sequence # is 230632, and it is warning you that
30632 is about to be overwritten. (and probably doesn't even exist
anymore physically).

The solution would be to use the lower case s (look it up), and allow
for more digits to fit in the archive log file name, (variable length
filename).
Then 230633 will fit.

It is only a warning. If you are aware of what is happening then you
are probably backing up correctly. However, you may also be
overwriting old archives needed for recovery... which oracle is not sure
of but wants to let you know of the situation.
