What is archive log:   Copy redo log files to a designated storage device after a log switch has occurred ARCHIVE processes are present only when the database is in ARCHIVELOG mode and automatic archiving is enabled. An archived redo log file is a copy of one of the filled members of a redo log group. It includes the redo entries and the unique log sequence number of the identical member of the redo log group.    Database Running in noarchivelog Mode: When you run your database in NOARCHIVELOG mode, you disable the archiving of the redo log The database control file indicates that filled groups are not required to be archived NOARCHIVELOG mode protects a database from instance failure but not from media failure Only the most recent changes made to the database, which are stored in the online redo log groups, are available for instance recovery. In NOARCHIVELOG mode you cannot perform online  backups Database  Running in archivelog Mode: When you run a database
