Oracle 10g remove_logfile procedure

In previous releases, the removefile option with add_logfile was used to remove redo log files from the LogMiner environment. With Oracle Database 10g, that option is deprecated. Now, you can remove redo log files with the newly added remove_logfile procedure of the dbms_logmnr package.

For example, to remove the redo log file '/data1/oracle/logs/redolog2.dbf', from the LogMiner session, execute the following statement

SQL> EXECUTE DBMS_LOGMNR.REMOVE_LOGFILE( -
LOGFILENAME => '/data1/oracle/logs/redolog2.dbf');
