How to Get Oracle Redo Log Files, Members, Size, Name and Status - Query

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

To retrieve redo log information from an Oracle database, you can use the following SQL*Plus script. This script queries the V$LOG view to provide details about the redo log files in the database. Redo logs are a critical component of Oracle databases. They record all changes made to the database, allowing for recovery and transaction consistency. The redo log files are divided into groups, and each group contains one or more members (physical files). The V$LOG view provides information about redo log groups in the database, including their sequence numbers, sizes, members, statuses, and other details. Please note that querying the V$LOG view requires appropriate privileges. Test the script in a controlled environment before running it in a production database.
