I am using Oracle 11g 11.1.0.7 on HP UNIX 11.23. My database has been
running in archived log mode.
Yet when I go and look in v$archived_log, I see some archived logs
missing,
i.e, when I do select name from v$archived_log, I see:
arch1_891_XXX.arc
arch1_892_xxx.arc
arch1_895_xxx.arc

I see this happening every two three days,
I do run
alter system archive log current
during my RMAN backups but that should not be the cause.

I have seen  this behavior since I started using Oracle 11.1.0.7,
never had this issue
with older releases.

I a not using any data guard. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
