OCI-01249

archiving not allowed in a clone database

Cause

There was an attempt to archive an online redo log or enable archiving for a clone database. This was not allowed because the archive log destination of the clone could be the same as that of the primary database, resulting in the destruction of its archived logs.


Action

Do not attempt to archive from a clone. If archiving is needed, then convert the clone to a regular database. To do so, follow the documented steps based on how the clone database was created.
