Hi,

Are your redo logs and Archive logs on the same disk? If so move them to seperate disks.
I think the parameter log_archive_max_processes can be used to define more Arch processes (but I would check this beofre setting it).

If your on Unix you can see how many arch processes are running by entering the following at the command line...

ps -ef |grep arc

These are information messages and as long as they're followed by a 'Completed Archiving' message for that log file should be OK. Look at ways of tuning the Arc process. (you could try http://www.ixora.com.au/tips/tuning/archiver.htm for info)

Regards
Moff.
