    Archive log mod

    Hello all,

    Is there any command that can be used on the command line to check and see once connected to a database, if it is in archive log mode or not.
    What is the way to check if a database is in archive log mode or not?
    Can anybody help please?

    By trying this statement:

    SELECT RECOVERY_MODE FROM V$ARCHIVE_DEST_STATUS;

    I got the following result:

    RECOVERY_MODE
    ------------------
    IDLE
    IDLE

    What is that can possibly mean?

    Try: SELECT LOG_MODE FROM V$DATABASE;
