    One of my arhchive logs was deleted, what I did was as follows,

    stop the archiving, I enabled no archive log

    then I started it on mount and enabled the arcchive log and
    backed up the whole db again, to make a new full backup, and possibly erase the previous archive log

    my querstion is when I queried the v$archvied_log, it still shows the all archive logs, how do I reset this. since I have already made a new backup.

    Your archive history only gets reset when you open the database with the "resetlogs" keyword. Your best bet would be:
    1. shutdown immediate (leave archiving on)
    2. Do a cold backup
    3. alter database open resetlogs

    thanks marist89,

    point of clarification,

    do I have to startup in mount or no mount before I execute the command "alter database open resetlogs"

    thanks
