v$log : How redo log file can have a status ACTIVE and be already archived?

fcjunicJul 28 2010 — edited Jul 30 2010

Hello all,

I would like to understand the difference between the STATUS of a redo log file and the fact that the redo log is already archived or not...

I read that active status means that "it is needed for instance recovery." But why is it needed for recovery if it is already archived ?

Can someone explain me ?

Thx.
