Executive Summary
The DBA Redo Log Files report details the physical configuration of the Online Redo Logs. Redo logs are critical for data integrity; if they are lost, the database cannot recover from a crash. This report verifies that logs are properly multiplexed (mirrored) and located on appropriate storage.
Business Challenge
- Availability: “Do we have at least two members for each redo log group to protect against disk failure?”
- Performance: “Are the redo logs on the fastest available disk (e.g., SSD or NVMe)?”
- Configuration: “How large are our log files? Do we need to resize them?”
Solution
This report joins GV$LOG and GV$LOGFILE.
Key Features:
- Group Status:
CURRENT,ACTIVE, orINACTIVE. - Member Path: The full file system path to the log file.
- Size: The size of the log file in bytes.
Architecture
The report queries GV$LOG and GV$LOGFILE.
Key Tables:
GV$LOG: Log group metadata (Sequence #, Size).GV$LOGFILE: Physical file locations.
Impact
- Data Protection: Ensures that a single disk failure won’t cause data loss or downtime.
- Write Performance: Confirms that redo logs are isolated from other heavy I/O workloads.
- Recovery: Essential information for performing media recovery.
Oracle E-Business Suite Reporting Library
We provide an open source Oracle EBS SQLs as a part of operational and project implementation support toolkits for rapid Excel reports generation.
Blitz Report™ is based on Oracle EBS forms technology, and hence requires minimal training. There are no data or performance limitations since the output files are created directly from the database without going through intermediate file formats such as XML.
Blitz Report can be used as BI Publisher and Oracle Discoverer replacement tool. Standard Oracle BI Publisher and Discoverer reports can also be imported into Blitz Report for immediate output to Excel. Typically, reports can be created and version tracked within hours instead of days. The concurrent request output automatically opens upon completion without the need for re-formatting.
The Filters, Columns, Rows and Values fields are used to create and deliver the data in pivot table format with full drill down to details.

The Excel template upload functionality in Blitz Report allows users to create their own layouts by uploading an Excel template with additional sheets and charts, automatically refreshed when the report runs again. This allows to create custom dashboards and more advanced visualizations of report data.

You can download and use Blitz Report free of charge for your first 30 reports.
The installation and implementation process usually takes less than 1 hour; you can refer to our installation and user guides for specific details.
