Log mode |
Specifies whether the database system supports software-based mirroring of the log volumes.

Overwrite mode for the log area |
Specifies whether the database system can overwrite redo log entries in the log area even if they have not been backed up.
If overwrite mode is on and you switch it off, you then have to carry out a complete data backup. |
Redo log management |
Specifies whether the database system writes redo log entries.
If redo log management is off and you switch it back on, you then must carry out a complete data backup. |
In addition to the log settings, there are several database parameters that influence logging (see Database Parameters).
