Hi,

When I trying to start my database, I'm getting this error:

SQL> startup;

ORACLE instance started.

Total System Global Area 8551575552 bytes

Fixed Size                  2245480 bytes

Variable Size            2365590680 bytes

Database Buffers         6157238272 bytes

Redo Buffers               26501120 bytes

Database mounted.

ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel

Process ID: 9789

Session ID: 321 Serial number: 3

I've checked alert log file and found that,

Errors in file /u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/dev/dev/trace/dev_arc1_11834.trc:

ORA-19815: WARNING: db_recovery_file_dest_size of 42949672960 bytes is 100.00% used, and has 0 remaining bytes available.

************************************************************************

You have following choices to free up space from recovery area:

1. Consider changing RMAN RETENTION POLICY. If you are using Data Guard,

   then consider changing RMAN ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY.

2. Back up files to tertiary device such as tape using RMAN

   BACKUP RECOVERY AREA command.

3. Add disk space and increase db_recovery_file_dest_size parameter to

   reflect the new space.

4. Delete unnecessary files using RMAN DELETE command. If an operating

   system command was used to delete files, then use RMAN CROSSCHECK and

   DELETE EXPIRED commands.

ARC1: Error 19809 Creating archive log file to '+RECO'

ARCH: Archival stopped, error occurred. Will continue retrying

ORACLE Instance dev - Archival Error

ORA-16038: log 1 sequence# 46 cannot be archived

ORA-19809: limit exceeded for recovery files

ORA-00312: online log 1 thread 1: '+REDO/dev/onlinelog/group_1.284.879765261'

For this,

I cannot connect to database so I deleted archivelogs manually from +RECO/DEV/ARCHIVELOG/  and tried to startup the database again still getting the same error.

The problem here is I cannot open the the database, so i'm unable to increase db_recovery_file_dest_size or connect to RMAN and delete archivelogs.

Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

Thanks,
